A physical reaction to finding humor in the image that the kind sir had posted.

“No one can stop Obama”

That’s plain silly. We have an election in 2012. Isn’t your name: ILOVESARAH2012?

That’s plenty of time for Obama to really hurt America.

Of course, the TSA needs to divert the attention off their own failures to anything but on those failures. Commonality in what I said: TSA = Fail, as does Napolitano and Barry = Fail.

LOL! Every time I see one of the unmodified “Coexist” bumper stickers ahead of me, I feel like ramming the back of the car.

Bada bing. Here's a good article from Wired on the blogger crackdown by the TSA goon squad.

TSA special agents served subpoenas to travel bloggers Steve Frischling and Chris Elliott

And Obama wants to unionize the TSA. I wonder if the special agents are going to be unionized as well... because that would mean we'd have union thugs issuing subpoenas in the future.

EXCUSE me ...but the biggest danger to national security is Zero himself. He is constantly running his mouth about when troops will leave Afgan, how many and what kind og troops are going.
PAAHLEEEEZE.

Welcome to FRee Republic as a valuable asset I’m certain.

It appears from posts by FR member Cindy that the TSA is subpoenaing bloggers in the travel industry for reporting information released Christmas Day, and the day after by none other than their own boss Janet Napolitano.

If I am missing something perhaps yourself, or Cindy, or somebody could clarify the matter.

Seems to me if this is accurate that this Administration has lost control of the most important of the Federal Governments Constitutional tasks which is our security, and are in the process of striking out at anything, and everything within their reach to try to cover their incompetence.

This blatant incompetence should be considered the crisis the opposition, were they not RINO’s, not let go to waste.

I’ve not posted any directives; nor received any and I’m not a blogger.

I did look at the media releases though and I posted 2 of them here.
