from the daily kos
While Kos is on vacation, the irregulars have taken over the blog. Very much worth reading. Here's a choice bit:
US Airports to go back to minimum wage passenger screeners. We don't need no stinking overpaid TSA security! We need to subsidize our big bizniz buddies!
"The Transportation Security Administration this week invited airports to apply to leave the federal security screener system and return to private screeners. The government took over airport screening after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and is planning a transition for approved airports by spring or summer 2005.
Several airports have said private contractors might provide more staffing flexibility . . . "The issue of the long lines -- that's probably where we're most concerned about customer service issues," said Tara Hamilton, spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority."
