This truly is Bush's fault -- another example of Dubya's going along with a big-government solution that yielded long-term unintended consequences. The TSA is an absolute disaster, an oppressive, incompetent thugocracy that has ruined the world's finest aviation travel system. Armed with TSA badges and unquestioned authority, the underclass gets "payback" by bullying productive citizens. Idiocracy is upon us...

“Man Skirts Newark Airport Security; Flights Delayed”
Monday, January 04, 2010
NEWARK, N.J. —
SNIPPET: “The man walked down an exit lane at Terminal C about 5:30 p.m., Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman Ann Davis said, and screening was halted while authorities looked at surveillance tapes to try to identify him.
Passengers were then moved from the secure side of the terminal, which is used primarily by Continental Airlines Inc., to the open side to go through screening again, Davis said in a statement. Passengers waited in check-in areas.
The terminal was searched thoroughly to make sure no dangerous objects were in it before the security checkpoints reopened around 11:45 p.m., the TSA said. The man wasn’t found, but the TSA said its re-screening effort ensured every passenger was fully screened.”
