Becky: Whenever I hear people praise the TSA for protecting us against terrorists, I am reminded of the old joke about the New York City cab driver who throws rose petals out the window as he drives through Manhattan. His passenger asks him why he is doing this, and the cabbie responds: “to keep lions away.” “What makes you think that would work?,” the passenger inquires. “You don’t see any lions, do you?”
The TSA will continue in operation for so long as Boobus Americanus remains in the mindset he had when, as a small child, his older siblings scared him with warnings of the bogeymen who awaited him in his darkened bedroom.
