Remember the Tylenol tampering in the mid-1980s? That caused near-mass hysteria and only a few people died. Imagine if a few hundred people were to die from tampered food across the country? Nobody would feel safe. Taste-testing would be the fastest growing occupation in America.

Why leave a guy in charge of air safety who has obstructed the arming of our commercial pilots (the one thing that would have most likely stopped the events of 09-11 at the 11th hour)

For the life of me, I cannot understand why Thompson would say this publicly.
What, so he can later say, "I told you so"? That's juvenile. Let's hope his replacement is an adult.

Think about this: thousands get drinking water from central systems. Millions of cadmium batteries are out there. It doesn't take but a gross or so to render a water supply dangerous.
We are not as safe as DHS wishes us to believe.

everyone is quitting because they are afraid of what is coming.Balderdash. Why didn't they quit last month or last year, if that's true? A sense of propriety?

Well, aside from anything ever said by John Kerry.

"For the life of me, I cannot understand why the terrorists have not attacked our food supply because it is so easy to do," he said.Thanks for the posit, Tommy. And your "leadership."
Maybe you can follow that chickensh*t statement up with, "We're sitting ducks for ANY attack. For the life of me, I cannot understand what the terrorists are waiting for??"
