The TSA: Keeping You Safe from Teenagers’ Purses and Little Old Ladies
Why do we allow the TSA to continue to exist? This is a serious question, folks. There isn’t a person alive who can name one terrorist the TSA has caught, not one plot the agency’s automatons have thwarted with their rigid adherence to rules built by brainless bureaucrats.
Clearing the Browser Tabs – Ten Years Later and I Still Will Not Submit, 9/11 Sunday Edition
Lan Astaslem, in Arabic, means “I will not submit”. Michelle Malkin has adopted it as a motto for how she lives her life as a citizen of the greatest nation history has ever known. I believe I’ll adopt it myself. I rarely tell my story of 9/11, not because it’s traumatic but because I believe [...]

Obviously, he is not qualified to sit on any committee with the word “intelligence” anywhere in its title or mission. Republican House Intelligence [...]
It’s Looking an Awful Lot Like the Deck of the Titanic Around Here
I’m completely baffled by this move. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Obama plans this week to name CIA Director Leon E. Panetta to replace Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, and Gen. David H. Petraeus, now running the war in Afghanistan, would take the CIA chief’s job in a major shuffle of the country’s top national security [...]
