...they're heeeeeeeere!  Air traffic controllers are starting to be furloughed; expect flight delays.

Besides, we shouldn't even have the TSA on top of it

Are you serious? We shouldnt have TSA? Really? Have you flown lately? Every single country in the world has some kind of security. I have been fortunate in my life to travel extensively, some of the foreign countries security is much more strigent then ours. I would rather have the TSA and the regulatory agencies to keep all of us safe than to have more intances like the shoe bomber or the boston terrorists...  

One has to wonder how people like this can even an imagine no regulatory agencies.

The shoe bomber was not caught by the TSA............

No but if you read my post, I said and security in other countries. He was arrested in Karachi, Pakistan....

The shoe bomber, made it through the security in Paris....

American Airlines Flight 63, carrying 197 people from Paris to Miami was diverted to Boston on December 22, 2001, after passengers and crew saw Reid trying to light a fuse and subdued him by tying him to his seat.

A new report issued by the House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on National Security, Homeland Defense and Foreign Operations, says that since November 2001, there have been more than 25,000 airport security breaches, ranging from minor incidents like baggage accidentally being left behind, to major breaches like travelers bypassing security lines and bringing various weapons onto airplanes.

The report explains that there have been more than 14,000 incidents of individuals getting into secure areas, including into the secure side of airports, without going through TSA screening.

TSA screeners have also personally failed to properly screen travelers about 6,000 times, while more than 2,600 travelers somehow successfully got through the security line without undergoing the normal screening procedures.

and how many times have the tsa confiscated weapons and other things? That is a very small percentage of error compared to what they prevented.... if they got through how do they know if they got through?

no wonder she is constantly drawing the wrong conclusions.

but i have to agree that even if we disbanded TSA, an organization that really is not run particularly well, we would have to replace it with SOMETHING. preferably something run a LOT better than TSA.
