Save billions. Scuttle TSA ASAP. Let each airport do it.

Arrive extra early...

Let’s hear it for the _resident.

Just imagine the outrage from the Left were GWB in office, but TSA is cool with Allred and Whoopi.

[meyer]

The worse it gets, the better.

[mojitojoe]

The TSA is part of Homeland Security. Homeland Security is run by Janet Napolitano, and she was appointed by and answers only to Barry Insane Soetoro.. Notice most of the this TSA thuggery went full-retard right after the midterm election. Insane Soetoro is punishing the citizenry for voting against The Party. This is also an experiment to see how far the people can be crushed under tyranny to see if we lash out.

[houeto]

WOW!

[mojitojoe]

ONE person with a terrorist vest could take out a plane full worth of people without even having to get close to the security area. Then what will they do? I guess towelheads go straight to the front of the line since they inspect themselves.

[Lockbar]

I think the line is for people who’s planes don’t take off till Tuesady. Them wash rooms at O’Hare are going to get pretty stinky! ;-P

[dragnet2]

We heard at some airports, trailers are being brought in and for those willing to briefly remove their clothing will be allowed to forgo the scanners and hand searches. Parents will be allowed to accompany their children into these trailers.

[jnsun]

Is it true that Michael Chertoff is invested in the scanners???

Many Americans do not seem to have a clue, even here on Free Republic. Although obviously a big part of it, it goes far far beyond simply the "Muslims."

I just cancelled my Christmas flights and hotel reservations.

I usually travel a lot but because of an unexpected health problem, I haven’t been flying for the last couple of months. I was going to go home for Christmas, but I don’t think I want either the x-ray or the personal pat-down, particularly after major surgery. Instead, I picked a place I can reach by car. It may be a long drive, but I can stop when I get tired and I will get there.

Is Obama actually trying to kill the airline industry, or was it just collateral damage in his sharia project?

[mimaw]

There's always long long lines at O’Hare on Thanksgiving holiday time. I don't agree with anything Obama and his minions have done so far but we don't know what intelligence they are working off of. I think alot of this TSA groping accusations are hysteria. I'll just go through the scanner. I want every chance to fly to my destination without blowing up.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

We can do Rules for Radicals better than you can, Barry.

How do you feel about that?

[azishot]

UNREAL! We’re retired and have chosen NOT TO FLY anywhere. Just packed up the RV and are spending the week in Laughlin, NV. Will plan a day trip to Vegas either Monday or Tuesday. MUCH less hassle.

What’s gonna happen to all those that miss their flights and have to leave the “secure” area to make arrangemnts for another flight, only to find out that they have to be groped, er, ah screended again? Groundhog Day?

[grumpygresh]

What a way to screw over the airline industry. Is the real agenda to make the airline industry fail? Then zero would call for a bailout and nationalization a la Cloward-Piven.

[Chaos]

It would be something if all these people started chanting loudly USA, Down with the TSA. USA, Down with the TSA. What they gonna do arrest everyone there? The jails are over crowded as it is.

This is total Bull Sheet.

[norge]

Forget the plane, the lobby is a target rich environment, and there would be no need to go through security.

[November 2010]

Eliminate the TSA. Privatize it and have it done at each airport. Pass a law exempting any legal liability for accusations of profiling in airport security.

[Gritty]

I'm reminded of the terrorists who some years ago sent a couple of guys with AK-47s and grenades into Italian airports and simply slaughtered the lined up and waiting passengers by the dozens and then walked out.

What is TSA thinking? Not that.

But I'd bet Al Qaeda is...
