Until American airlines become truely as serious about security as El Al, I will continue, as I have for the last 5 years, not to fly.

Same here. There has to be a way to "clear" frequent travelers, certified US Citizens, the elderly and focus on young moslem males, ladies in headscarves, sweating moslem males using prayer beads, Islamics going one-way, Islamics without luggage, and ladies with TNT-belts around their midriff . That must become the focus, not worring about my coffee cup, nail-clipper, or shampoo.

This was once our government and we were once in control of it. TSA should be fired so we can start over with a much better idea.

My solution: Every passenger gets offered a pork sausage to eat. Those who refuse are invited to walk across a mat with a picture of Mohammed. Repeat process several times throughout the walk to the boarding gate. Pick out anyone looking like a Muzzie for extra checking. Give airports grades and grants based on most ACLU and CAIR lawsuits generated. Place anyone bringing the lawsuits on a "do not fly" list.

Until the good Muzzies help us sort out the bad Muzzies, we err on the side of caution.
