Translated: It doesn't grow the power of the Federal government fast enough. Eradicate it. I especially liked this bit:Washington (CNN) -- A program that allows airports to replace government screeners with private screeners is being brought to a standstill, just a month after the Transportation Security Administration said it was "neutral" on the program.
TSA chief John Pistole said Friday he has decided not to expand the program beyond the current 16 airports, saying he does not see any advantage to it.
He said airports that currently use contractor screening will continue to be allowed to.Anyone who believes this? Please get in touch with me. I happen to have an incredible deal on a bridge in Brooklyn and/or some beachfront property in Arizona was should discuss... $100 says that this program is very quietly discontinued over the next year as permits come up for renewal and are denied one by one.
What jumped out at me in the article was that there was a discussion on whether the private screening was better than TSA or merely the same. Not if it was substandard, but better than or equal to - is there any reason, then, to discontinue the process? Well, other than to grow the government further I mean.
This bears watching - no good can come of anything with the letters "T", "S", and "A" attached to it...
That is all.

I beg to differ "Tits Sammiches and Ass".... See there is good in those letters...
Sorry couldn't help myself...
That iS All?
What genius legislation! The TSA chief gets to decide if he has any competition. It's like GM getting to decide if Ford is allowed to sell cars. Hmmm, probably shouldn't tip of The Man to that bit...
I'm with you on this one. I read this the other day and meant to put up a post, but you did a better job.
It's pretty obvious that the TSA is just trying to preserve their own power and jobs. Hopefully Congress will step in and restrain them.
Interesting, since LEGALLY the airports have the option to opt out...
