...Too bad TSA let's by huge amounts of stuff. <br /><br />San Diego's TSA failed 22 or 24 (or 20 of 22?) tests they conducted (in 2006 or 2007).<br /><br />So much for effectiveness.<br /><br />Is there any good conservative mag out to read?

The constitution, and perhaps more sig...Well said.<br /><br />The constitution, and perhaps more significantly, the Bill of Rights, was meant as a grant of power to the government from the govern as well a set of limitiations on how far that power can go. <br /><br />All rational people understand the importance of national security but there comes a time -- and we have long passed it -- when common sense and our sense of community must take precedence. Our forefathers never promised us a rose garden, only a constitution. We are not immune from evil; we ferret out and punish evil. The greatest antidote to tyranny is freedom and even more freedom, not more restrictions.<br /><br />What these yahoos do not get is that when we excessively curtail our own freedoms in response to terrorism, the terrorists win. They win because they are bullies. They win become of intimidation. They win because we let them intimidate us.<br /><br />Unfortunately, George W. Bush didn't quite get it. Nor does Mr. Change You Can Believe In But Never Delivered.RAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928990342754680095noreply@blogger.com
