Or Maybe It’s Not Working

Yesterday I posted an article where the TSA patted itself on the back, not the places you get patted, telling us what a great job they were doing.

Today, in the LA Times is another article questioning the spending of “$31 billion by 2014″ in the name of your safety.  The link is below, as the article is a bit long to reproduce here:

If you are unsuccessful with the link, cut and paste it.

I particularly like the nose leads and cattle prods, unfortunately not for muslim terrorists but cattle in Cherry County, Nebraska in case Al Qaeda sleeper cells decide to mount biowarfare against the cattle population.

I think the telling quote is: 

“For me to sit here and say all this money was spent wisely is for me to sit here and lie to you,” he said. “Could we have done better? Yes. Have we done all that bad? Probably not all that bad, in the overall scheme of things.”

Nevertheless, the TSA has stopped nothing.  The Christmas bomber was stopped by passengers, Richard Reid, passengers, Times Square, a street cleaner.  All these people have done is feel up children and grandmothers and destroy your freedoms — it’s going to get worse unless you ACT NOW!

Forward this to your congressman and tell them you agree, you want to help fight the deficeit by reducing the size and power of the DHS.
