air sick of politics

Wow. What an exercise in "hassle for home land security." Because British cops nabbed some bad guys, the White House had to flex its butt, & tell people to throw out any liquids they may want to take on the plane. With all the searches, & waiting in line, it would probably be easier to WALK across the US (that's what I did).

Is it just me, or does the "Terror Threat" go up every time the President's approval rating is down?

Now, I'm no expert on explosives, but liquid explosive devices are very unstable under the best conditions. They would have to come in seperate containers, and mixed on the spot. Now it's my guess that the whole prossess is involved enough to attract attention, and result in the would-be bomber getting a royal ass beating by the other pasengers.
It would make more sense to check the bags in the cargo hold for bombs and have air martials deal with the cabin.
They don't check luggage anywhere near as close as they check humans.
You would think they would check the thousands of shipping containers that come in and out each day...
...can you say "ticking time bomb?"
Doncha think that the best homeland security option would be to look at countries who don't have to worry about thousands of people wanting to kill them and do what they do.
In my ideal airport the security, guys would just watch you walk by and keep playing guitar...sexy guitar.
