WASHINGTON — Cabinet secretaries, top congressional leaders and an exclusive group of senior U.S. officials are exempt from toughened new airport screening procedures when they fly commercially with government-sanctioned security details.
New heightened security procedures by the Transportation Security Administration, which require either a scan by a full-body detector or an intimate personal pat-down, have spurred passenger outrage in the lead-up to the Thanksgiving holiday airport crush.

Next week Obama is going to North Korea to give the Pyongyang Address. The last line is going to be: “ . . . this nation shall have a new birth of oppression - and that government of the bureaucrat, by the bureaucrat, and for the bureaucrat, shall not long perish from this earth.” /s
Oh please, stop w/the self righteous attitude. You are offended by the letters FU? Actions are more powerful than words, and that is exactly what this administration is DOING TO YOU! So have yourself a feel up and that dirt will stay with you forever. Or will you bless those evil b*stards?
Imho, you are missing the point.
Bustard noun a large, heavily built, swift running bird found in open country in the old world. The males of must bustards have a spectacular courtship display.
ORIGIN: late 15th cent.: perhaps an Anglo-Norman French blend of Old French bistarde and oustarde, both from Latin avis tarda ‘slow bird’ : the name is unexplained, as the bustards are fast runners.
Profanity - by words or deeds.
Take your pick - actually you DON’T get to pick!
