clearvoice, our fathers and their fathers (and mothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, sons & daughters, nieces & nephews) fought and gave their lives for these rights. I hold them in high value.

Also, those entities that hold our lives and liberties in the balance need to be held to a higher standard than common citizens. The TSA have a job to do, and they need to do it with a minimum of waste and inaccuracy.

The current system isn’t working, and the current administration doesn’t care.

I really tired of all the big brother crying crap. What is it you have to hide if you don’t want them looking. They can have my underwear, my socks, my first born if it protects me form the crazy’s including the liberal loons who always cry, “My Rights! My Rights” Wining of course while saying this.
Don’t Worry, when Obama wins, you will be crying with the breakdown of America as we know it.

While I think it is probably unconstitutional for the US Government to require what amounts to an internal passport, it is probably lawful for airlines to impose identity and security requirements as part of the conditions of carriage. Which then begs the question, why is the government handling security for domestic travel and not the airlines.

Having said that, I actually think the federal government does have a responsibility to ensure that federally regulated transportation is safe. It is also ckear from the experience of 9/11 that the ideals of Washington and Jefferson are being exploited to wage war on the American people.

It truly is a Catch-22.

I agree! How can we stop an organization that seems to be above the law?
