A few things. First, yet another TSA inspector has been accused of stealing iPads. The link: http://www.star-telegram.com/2012/04/13/3882741/tsa-inspector-accused-of-stealing.html
" According to airport police, a traveler reported Jan. 24 that his iPad 2 had been stolen and that he had traced it electronically to a home in Bedford owned by Dovel.
" While arresting Dovel in that case, airport police discovered another iPad in Dovel's leather satchel. Dovel told authorities that the iPad was his but that he couldn't remember where he bought it, according to police reports.
" Using that iPad's serial number, police traced it to a Grand Prairie man who had reported that it was stolen as he traveled through Terminal E in May. "
So they got him with two stolen iPads. But according to the article, this had been going on for the past eight months. It really makes me wonder how many more devices this person might have absconded with.
But there's also this: http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=50807
Here we learn that "Big Sis," the Director of the Department of Homeland Security (Department of Hussein's Sycophants) might have perjured herself in testifying about the "Fast and Furious" scandal.
" Inside sources told Pavlich that Napolitano’s testimony was in direct contradiction to emails she exchanged, and reports and briefing she received, according to an exclusive preview of the book by Human Events. "
So Ms Clownitano's testimony was in direct contradiction to emails she had sent. Oops.
But the most damning thing, I think, is this: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303815404577335783535660546.html
The title is "Why Airport Security Is Broken - And How To Fix It."
The writer of the article, Mr Kip Hawley, is a former director of the TSA, so he should know.
" More than a decade after 9/11, it is a national embarrassment that our airport security system remains so hopelessly bureaucratic and disconnected from the people whom it is meant to protect. Preventing terrorist attacks on air travel demands flexibility and the constant reassessment of threats. It also demands strong public support, which the current system has plainly failed to achieve. "
But it goes further.
" I tried to follow these principles as the head of the TSA, and I believe that the agency made strides during my tenure. But I readily acknowledge my share of failures as well. I arrived in 2005 with naive notions of wrangling the organization into shape, only to discover the power of the TSA's bureaucratic momentum and political pressures. " (emphasis and italics added.)
You need to start at the top. Get rid of Ms Clownitano and the entire TSA is where I'd start.

Dem Posters Show Their Usual "Tolerance"
I won't repeat what some of those oh-so-holier-than-thou progressives (liberals) said, but I will make note that these are the exact same people who are telling us Conservatives to watch our "rhetoric."
More of the "do as I say, not as I do!" crap.
WARNING - THIS LINK LEADS TO A SITE WHERE EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND VULGAR LANGUAGE IS SHOWN.
Ordinarily, I wouldn't link to it. But the unmitigated gall and hypocrisy needs to be shown.

Man Tries to Hold Up Bank ...
... using (and you'll never believe this until you read the article)
a toilet plunger.

He was arrested. The police might also want to see if he's mentally competant. I mean, I'm not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but even I know a plunger's not gonna cut it!

Jersey Man Gives up Obama Flag.
The link: http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2012/04/12/south-jersey-man-gives-up-his-obama-flag-but-not-his-opinions/
The only reason I'm commenting on this is due to something Mr Kennedy said.
" “If someone had come to me in the beginning, I would have said, ‘Let’s sit down and talk to see what we might reasonably come up with as a solution.’” "
That sounds pretty good, doesn't it? He states he'd have been willing to reasonably consider a solution. Buuuut...
" “In Acacia, there are some angry, maybe even evil-minded people about Obama,” he tells KYW Newsradio.
" Kennedy stresses that he loves his community, but thinks people need to talk to each other reasonably about their differences. " (Italicized in article)
People do need to talk to each other reasonably about their differences, Mr Kennedy. But calling some of them " ... maybe even evil-minded ... " about Obama doesn't help!
It is, however, nice to know that you have the liberals talking-point down pat.
Belittle,
Call names.
Got it.

Democrat Calls for Cheney's execution
The link: http://www.themainewire.com/2012/04/%E2%80%9Cmoderate-caucus%E2%80%9D-chair-urges-cheney%E2%80%99s-execution/
" Kruger made the statement through his Twitter account this past summer, saying, “Cheney deserves same final end he gave Saddam. Hope there are cell cams,” a reference to technology that would allow Kruger to watch the proposed execution of the former Vice President of the United States. " (emphasis NOT added, that appears in bold in the article.)
This from a member of the "Civility Police," the Democratic Party who have the unmitigated gall and audacity to tell us to watch our rhetoric.
You and I both know that had I stated this about a Democrat, the FBI (or perhaps the Secret Service ... or both!) would (RIGHTLY!!) be here in short order.
You and I also know that had it been a Republican who had uttered this outrage, the Democrats would (RIGHTLY!!) be all over it, stating that it " ... simply goes to prove the extreme views of the Republicans ... "
But he wasn't done!
"UPDATE 4/13 7:00am: Click here to listen to Kruger in a radio interview. At about 2 minutes in, he actually says ‘I wish we could have fun with this’. " (link is theirs and is left intact.)
Yeah. He states he was having fun, going for a laugh. Yeah, that's really funny.

Words for Thought ...
... having said that, please read the quote FIRST and then apply it to the current situation before you consider who said this ... or your answer. Hasn't Mr Obama done this? Just asking:
Remember: Just asking:
" Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around; to consider to most wretched sort of life as paradise.
" The receptive ability of the great masses is only very limited; their understanding is small. On the other hand, their forgetfullness is great. This being so, all effective propaganda should be limited to a very few points, which, in turn, should be used as slogans until even the very last man is able to imagine what is meant by such words."
- Adolf Hitler.
Remember; Just asking.

From the "Golden Oldies"
Or in this case, the Molden Oldies.
The link: http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/watercooler/2010/aug/17/audio-rep-pelosi-calls-investigation-wtc-mosque-op/
Yes, here we learn that Rep. Nancy Pelosi called for an investigation for those who opposed the construction of the mosque at Ground Zero ... yes, where the WTC once stood.
" Calls to investigate the funding for those proposing the $100 million "Cordoba House" have fallen on deaf ears, though, as New York's Mayor Mike Bloomberg has described such an investigation as "un-American." "
Question for Ms Pelosi; if it's 'un-American' to ask for an investigation as to where the money for the building of the mosque is coming from, then isn't it also 'un-American' to ask where the money for the opposition is coming from?
Just asking.
Or doesn't common sense and the rules that you bound us to also apply to you?
Just asking.
