"Papers Please"

Posted on Denver Post Website

I find it odd that democrats, who were (many decades ago) pro-civil liberties, support these invasive, demeaning, and pointless strip searches at airports. The grainy pictures TSA shows you are the over-exposed versions. The REAL pictures show you utterly unclothed in full detail for TSA goons to peruse.

If one thinks about it, the options for a suicide hijacker are already very limited. The vigilance of a Dutch passenger, AND NOT POLICE STATE MEASURES, thwarted the recent attack.
I think the bottom line is Americans are being sold an illusion- the illusion is "security". The notion that we must give up liberty and $40B for security is a false choice. In this exchange, we merely enrich politically connected corps that build strip search machines, bureaucrats who can look like they are "doing something", and create a welfare-jobs program for 40,000 unskilled TSA agents. AND YET, THE UNDERPANTS BOMBER STILL GOT THROUGH!

Wake up sheeple. The USA is becoming a police state.
