I know what I’d like to give TSA for Christmas, and it ain’t gravy.

[ThomasThomas]

How about fruitcakes?

[Libloather]

How about fruitcakes?

I'm sure they'll have to go through the full body scanner.

Who do you think works the porno scanners?

I know what you mean, jellybean. : )

However, those hoping to bring food to their hosts are permitted to pack a turkey in their carry-on.

The jokes just write themselves...

[ElkGroveDan]

They hired Elmo last week.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Are the donuts for the air marshalls?

The dolts at TSA are searching energetically to prevent Aunt Alice and Grandma from carrying gravy, jams, and jellies on airplanes, while, at the same time, they decline to profile young Moslem males as being “undemocratic” or “discriminatory.”

Four things we can easily say about the next nasty surprise:
1. It will be executed by young Moslem males;
2. The TSA will have failed utterly to see it coming;
3. It will cost American lives; and,
4. Some lame spokeperson from the TSA will stand up before the press and say, “Who, us? Hey, we did our best.”

Meanwhile, this useless and regressed bunch of dolts and morons will continue to cost the American taxpayer a bundle every April.

Bet it should be administered through a large turkey baster.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Betcha anything marked “hummus” gets a pass

[Slings and Arrows]

When I’m done they can keep the baster.

ROTFLOLOL.

“Eggnog can be an alternate to fuel depending on who’s mixing it. Sometimes there’s a fine line between a beverage and hazmat,”

I can make the same analogy for baked beans...

[Gator113]

They have no idea how much damage can be done with a turkey leg bone.

I saw Penn & Teller’s show in Vegas tonight — bought one of their metal cards with the Bill of Rights printed on it, meant for putting in your pocket for airport security!

The enduring mystery to me is why the American public puts up with this crap and continues to use airplanes for their travel.

And yes, I know that sometimes the distance requires flight. Nevertheless, I would bet that that's not always the case and there's where flights are not necessary, yet people put up with the crap (see above).

Because we have a bunch of dolts out in the citizenry who are still screaming "Anything for Security!"

I know a few of them. Oddly enough they tend to also vote Democrat. That should help it make more sense.

Quoting my WWII Grandfather to them about "freedom" and "liberty" and how he did not go to war "so we could all be slaves" is met with, "But it will happen again!"

There is no cure for these people.
