Do you think the terrorists have won... or at least grinned with the Patriot Act was signed? Don't the Islamic radicals hate America because of its freedoms, so anything that curtails these freedoms, makes them victorious?
As for Atta and Co, and the shoe-bomber. That is the beauty of their plans, the think outside of the box, and try to bring us to our knees. Atta and Co. didn't carry anything illegal onboard the planes, neither did the shoebomber.
So, how do we thwart future attacks? Wouldn't getting rid of TSA actually make us much more vulnerable? How about the Israeli security system at airports? They haven't had a highjacking in years.

Of course they are ltao at our grandmothers and the rest of us being fondled.
A bonus of the TSA creation at airports is that it gives inner city folks a job and gets them off welfare. And from the looks of things at our airports, they are making good use of that time scrutinizing grandma in her wheelchair and soccer moms with their newborns.
