I agree - it’s kabuki theater security and just an immense hassle, carried out by largely minimum-wage cretins and costs billions. But obama will never shut it down - yet another reason to vote Romney.

Obama didn't start it, Bush did. You really think that Romney will do away with it?

During the Tokugawa Shogunate, the Japanese government prevented upkeep on bridges and didn’t allow large boats to be built. The intended purpose was PREVENT travel and reduce threats of uprisings etc.

IMHO, the TSA serves much the same purpose.

Bush started this madness. Do you honestly think Romney will shut it down?

Maybe we should go through security dressed up as Kabuki actors?

Maybe then we could demostarte how dumb this kabuki thing is...

It was a Republican administration and a RINO-led Congress that gave us the TSA and these patdowns that make some sheeple feel better.

Romney is even more liberal than Bush, and there is nothing in Romney's actual past or record to indicate that Romney would change the TSA, and Romney has surrounded himself with the same types of liberal and moderate RINOs that Bush did, and Congress will be even more liberal than it was under Bush, regardless of who comes out on top.

If you pin your hopes on Romney getting rid of the TSA, I feel sorry for you. It was nanny-staters like Romney and his advisers that helped usher in the TSA.
