Update #2: How come, if the diaper bomber incident last Christmas plays such a huge part in the latest Gropefest Security Theater exercise, it took eleven months to suddenly decide that we need to feel up everyone who isn’t a president or a congress-critter?
You’d think if it was so critical to safety they would have gotten on this sooner. Something smells here.
Napolitano and Pistole (and Obama) say they’re open to discussing change in the policy but not over Thanksgiving. One can only assume that they are going to do the standard Democrat maneuver just as they did on Health Care – which is to refuse change and hopefully wait out the detractors, saying “When you are less ignorant you’ll appreciate how wise we are.”

Update on the TSA thing: This is exactly what I was planning on doing when going to Florida in January.
Yes, it is best to ensure that none of TSA’s behavior sees the light of day. No recordings.

I caved.
I now have a Blackberry phone thingy. I’m a Luddite in research and aerospace and I now have a Blackberry. The WiFi and bluetooth is just sweet. Went to a coffee shop with the family and a friend of mine guided my surfing to show me a boat he wants to buy someday, maybe, if.
I absolutely love it. It’s not always the easiest navigation to get to the customization stuff but overall I really really like it a lot. Tenement Lobster is on my background for it already.

Tool of the devil, LK! 🙂
Tenement lobster as a background??? WANT LIKE BURNING!!!!
Is it coincidence this crap is instituted after the elections? Is it coincidence that Obama is preparing to exercise the EO? Is it coincidence that the TSA wants to unionize now??
Welcome to the Age of Universal Communication LK! I can’t be separated from my Droid. I start whimpering when the battery gets low and I don’t have my power cord handy.
Now we have to get you on Twitter. 😉
No.
No.
No no no.
I refuse to even look at Twitter. I am… a superior specimen, far above such petty trifling things as “Twitter”.
You know that just isn’t so, but I doubt I’d “take to it”. Facebook is already a bit too ephemeral for my tastes.
You know, I thought so too but if you follow the right people it can be fun and informative. And timely. If Something Happens you’re likely to find out from Twitter first before any other source. Come on man! Hop on the Twitter-train!
