Every time I, my wife or a member of my family fly, I get to open all my luggage, searched completely and even my wallet is taken apart.. I and them usually go to the staging area with a bag full of papers etc. from the wallets or purses and then it is sort and re arrange time...

If you are Brown or French, then you are down....

The whole 911 pr thing is basically a "welfare program" for the police -- city, state and federal. Big secret!!!! Classified!!! For you eyes only!!! Spending money is the only way these desperate people stay in office. Bush and company has spent everyones Social Security and medicare money and no one says anything. amazing.

Are you surprised at this?

After Chertoff was advising us earlier this week that the port deal cancellation was going to damage the economy, I'm not suprised at all.
Please remember Mr. Chertoff, concentrate on Homeland Security!

Bush and company has spent everyones Social Security and medicare money and no one says anything. amazing.

I think he is waiting to spend our money during his retirement. I'm sure it is some off shore account.
We should send him to the Hague and sue his family for war profiteering!

This wouldn’t be happening if Al Gore was president, but then, 9/11 wouldn’t have happened either, for that matter.

I don't think you can say with any degree of certainty that 9/11 would not have happened on
Gore's watch. I'm not sure any president on the job for that period of time could have stopped it.

I hope all those insipid "security moms" see this story.

Every day it's something new, and every day I think no one is going to continue to stand for this. And every day, people roll over and go shopping.

"So they can’t handle hurricanes, they approve deals to turn our ports over to Middle Eastern countries without checking the country’s commitment to fighting terrorism, and now they can’t even fulfill the primary mission for which they were created."

....Steve we already know their strong suit is prevaricating, gerrymandering and election fraud!!

Jim Talent: Too gay for Missouri?

Posted by dopey-o at March 16, 2006 08:03 PM

Speaking of Jim Talent reminds me that the House refused to resume state spending on birth control Wednesday, because it would have amounted to "an endorsement of promiscuous lifestyles." When Republicans gained control in 2003, they stopped funding money for family planning and certain women's health services here in Missouri.

The Democrats successfully inserted language into the proposed budget that would have allowed part of the $9.2 million intended for "core public health functions" to go to contraception provided through public health clinics, but the funding was deleted. We certainly don't want contraception and infertility treatments for women in Missouri. Because the Right to Life wacko group was opposed, the vote was defeated.

Phillips, a Republican from Kansas City said "If you hand out contraception to single women, we're saying promiscuity is OK as a state, and I am not in support of that. WTF! So anti-abortion lawmakers are denying money for contraception to low-income people who use public health clinics, which will result in more unwanted pregnancies and more abortions. Two steps forward and 50 steps backwards for women. I have a good idea, let's shoot any male who impregnants a women.

Did I ever tell you how much I hate this State?

Did you know that those who are in NO that can't find a job are "either lazy or use to living on the system?" Nightline


What will this do to Feingold's censure resolution?

The Bush administration could continue its policy of spying on targeted Americans without obtaining warrants, but only if it justifies the action to a small group of lawmakers, under legislation introduced yesterday by key Republican senators.

The four senators hope to settle the debate over National Security Agency eavesdropping on international communications involving Americans when one of the parties is suspected of terrorist ties. President Bush prompted a months-long uproar when he said that constitutional powers absolve him of the need to seek warrants in such cases, even though the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act requires warrants for domestic wiretaps.

"If you hand out contraception to single women, we're saying promiscuity is OK as a state."

So, following that logic, any single women seeking contraception is promiscuious? Does that mean if you are seeking contraception aids as a married women, your not? Furthermore, if you are "promiscuious" (whatever that means to these people) then wouldn't logic tell you that person needs protection all the more?

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL SINGLE WOMEN FROM THE STATE OF MISSOURI

Keep your legs closed and do not engage in sex if you are single.

Sorry guys, meant to post on open thread.

This wouldn’t be happening if Al Gore was president, but then, 9/11 wouldn’t have happened either, for that matter.

VP Gore chaired an air transport security commission. Tightening airport security would have been his first reaction to reports of imminent attack in Summer '01.

Posted by bob h at March 17, 2006 04:44 AM

would Al Gore (vice president in the prior administration, an administration that went out of its way to warn the incoming Bush about AlQueda threats) have resumed cedar chopping after a PDB saying "Bin Laden determined to attack America"? I don't think so. I don't think that Al Gore would have come into office with a list of plans that could be put in place in the event of a 9/11 type event. Bush did, though.
