Now in the midst of all of this TSA stuff ... perhaps you missed this. Last week the Obama Administration gave TSA agents the right to unionize. Wow! That's just wonderful. Mix the union attitude in with the current arrogance of some of these agents ... and it will certainly make our flying experience that much more enjoyable.
The federal government employee unions were quick to jump on this new opportunity. This week they were calling for collective bargaining rights for TSA agents. Oh goodie. You know where this is going, don't you? We're going to get to the point that it will be virtually impossible to fire a TSA agent. Airports will set up TSA rubber rooms where agents on administrative leave can sit and play video games while pulling down their full salaries. Maybe they can grope each other to pass the time.
Real conservatives didn’t want it; they saw it as another expansion of the Fed, creating another unruly bureaucracy, which, in the end, would do a substandard job with a high price tag.
Once of the “compromises” that was suppose to help avoid that was that they would not be unionized. It was one of the compromises that got the “moderate” Republicans to go along with the creation of the TSA. Well, that did us a hell of a lot of good, didn’t it?
This is why we don’t allow the Feds to open the door at all. This is why Obomacare must be REPEALED, not modified, not fixed, but REPEALED. If we don’t repeal it, the door is open, and the open door will be used to slowly but surely expand the power of the Fed to interfere in our healthcare.
When did they not have the right to unionize? The unions have been harassing TSA workers for years.
These new insane policies will likely drive them right into it when the unions make phony offers of protection.
It may be like back in the Argenbright days.

I’ve been warning about this since the day TSA was created
Unlike Europe, the Radical left currently has NO WAY to shut down the entire U.S. Economy on whim. Unionize TSA, and they have EXACTLY THAT, a way to completely shut down the economy of the United States, any time they want to.
Don’t pass a gay rights bill? SHUT DOWN TRAVEL!!
Don’t pass a huge new tax bill? SHUT DOWN TRAVEL!!
Now they get to — literally — rape us, and we cannot complain.
This is the first story I have seen about TSA being allowed to unionize by Obama.
Why is Boortz the only one reporting it?
Slovenly Sis is on the record as being for unionizing the TSA.
This is simple. Instead of buying a plane ticket, rent a car.
Let Me Guess:
S E I U is trying to be their ‘union’???
What a revolting sight would be to see this lesbian trough-feeder on a scan screen!
