This white guy has been stopped for a search in an airport. It was a long trip and, after looking at myself in the bathroom mirror, I didn't blame 'em!

He has bounced from show to show, tanking each show's ratings in the process. Yet, he says all the right things in order to keep getting hired.

He and Connie Chung both. Unfortunately, Maria Shriver can no longer perform the same trick because there are too many younger and more talented blondes and brunettes on television these days...

Looks like Gumball finally found a job from which he can't be fired - PBS, i.e. sucking on the government teat.

"Little different story for me. I don't mind the profiling if it's last-minute purchase with cash or not checking any bags and having a one-way ticket or something like that."

Right, like it's really difficult to buy a RT ticket with a credit card and check in some luggage. Good grief! Wake up, woman!

And for the record, my son often has to travel at the last minute and changes his itinerary in the middle of his trip. When he does, they go over him with a fine tooth comb. If airport screeners were just profiling ME types, as a blue-eyed blond, my son wouldn't rate a second glance.

I got singled out at an airport several years back, (when they were looking for Irish terrorists).

I felt a little paranoid for a while, but, overall, I was reassured to know someone is trying to stop terrorists.

I'm reassured when a sales clerk checks to see that my signature on a receipt is the same as the signature on my bank card, too.

Well, apparently the Islamofascists are not above using blonde women as suicide bombers, and did so in Russia last week. So we can't absolve tall slender blondes or avoid including them.

But I do find that the security staff at airports does like to search us.

I write this speaking from personal experience as a 5'10" blonde.

Didn't Gumball used to be a big media contender? Now it seems he's playing for the farm team PBS. What happened?

I think the Gumball's downhill slide began with his snotty memo about Willard Scott. Combine that with the fact that he has no personality, he is snotty to everyone, especially those who disagree with him, he is condescending, and the fact that he is a loony liberal. He is the black Algore.

And, the left think that they can come up with their own Rush Limbaugh!

They are just upset, 9/11 is a highly inconvenient reminder that criminal profiling is a vital tool in the law enforcement toolbox.

They are trying very hard to equate racial profiling and criminal profiling as one and the same. I do not take solace in the fact that the poor and/or minorities are more prone to criminal behavior - ignoring or glossing over this fact won't help anybody. Mr. Gumball should be ashamed.
