okay, why did we need half a minute worth of his campaign footage, then another 30 of what's her face? I agree what the tsa is doing seems extreme, but pinning this on Obama seems silly, when as already pointed out, Mccain would have ended up with the exact same thing. they didn't personally clear this, what's her face did.


Good question. I'd like to not watch as much Obama images myself, and quite possibly this could be cut together by a Republican for all I know. Though it should be pinned on Obama, aka his Administration, because the TSA is part of the Executive Branch (chain of command: TSA > DHS > Janet Napolitano > Obama). And, these new pat down procedures where they touch your privates and the backscatter x-rays were implemented while his Administration was in charge.

Meh, don't get it.
People are pissed at the TSA. Why this links back to Obama and why this needed 30 seconds of photographs of Obama during his campaign, followed by another 30 seconds of him and whoever the woman is, I don't really understand.

Janet Napolitano (featured in the video) is the United Secretary of Homeland Security in the administration of President Barack Obama. These new advances in "security procedures" are a direct result of her leadership, and being that she's part of the Obama Administration it links back to him just as Tom Ridge linked back to Bush.

Which of these things will fix this problem?
1. more government intervention in flying?
2. less government intervention in flying?
Simple really.


The problem always is not enough government, silly.

Thanks for the promote!
