The TSA protects you from Donald Rumsfeld
The TSA: protecting you from former Secretaries of Defense, six-year-olds, and 95-year-old, wheelchair-bound leukemia patients.

Newark TSA accused of singling out passengers for special scrutiny if they’re…Mexicans and Dominicans
Apparently the TSA in Newark airport is devoting its energies to looking for drug traffickers.

Napolitano: “No logic” in profiling Muslim men under age 35
Of course there isn’t.
