They seem to delight in pissing us off.


Yeah.

Air travel is way down from peak load years when the TSA had no problem keeping pace.

This is a deliberate slow down by the Obama Admin

I wasn’t one of the people afraid of clowns———until your clown picture.

Now I am terrified. :-)

When I was a kid, I hated anyone who had a pony.

(disclaimer: I had a pony. He was great btw)

How dumb are these criminal government morons? At BWI several years ago the TSA brought in mimes to “soothe and entertain” irritated citizens. What idiocy. If anything,just about everyone hates mimes. However, when it comes to wasting taxpayer’s dollars, you can’t beat the government.
