When I was in Orlando the airport screeners didn't even understand English and could not respond to me except for nodding their heads. I found this completely disturbing.

I have a better idea. Let's get a bill passed that NO employee of the government can belong to a union.

The Senate voted Tuesday to give 45,000 airport screeners the same union rights as border patrol, customs and immigration agents, despite a veto threat from the White House.

Now the question is, will W follow through?

This is the payoff that the unions get for helping the RATS steal the election!!

Its not going anywhere... if the provision isn't struck out in conference, it faces a presidential veto.

President Bush will veto this bill. But since the Democrats took over Congress, they haven't passed too many bills because the war in Iraq is distracting them.

I can see it now. I've been waiting in line for an hour... get up to the screener... she says, "Sorry, time for my break, I'll be back in 30 minutes."

Folks, you think you've seen long lines at the airport?? Well, you ain't seen nothing yet.

This could have all been avoided if we were not idiots and federalized airport security in the first place.
