Flawless.

Again, as I previously stated... ALL we need to do is get the retarded
twits to send the person that fails the metal detector test to send them
BACK THROUGH IT AGAIN, instead of that stupid pull you aside and pat you
down stupidity.

THAT will solve the problem, and THAT is what the idiots should figure
out how to perform properly. They need an additional detector for first
pass fails, and if you fail the second, THEN you scrutinized a bit more
closely.

Anti-patdown is not "getting it."

Issuing all passengers a knife coated with lard is getting it. The
dismembered and lard-smeared remains of any would be-terrorists could be
offloaded into a hog trough at the end of each flight, and thus help to
make more lard. No polite burial for them, just passing though the pigs
and into the manure pit.

That's "getting it."

afaik all the TSA nonsense started before Obama

True enough, however Obama is the one who's threatening (and suing) the
states.

from what I read elsewhere Texas pretty much instantly caved in and
said
the bill was dead when the DOJ got involved

Utah has apparently taken the baton.

_suppress_ terrorism.

You mean the Patriot Act?  Congress just re-passed it.

Will Obama sign it?

Yep.

as far as I understand he already did, so much for temporary laws

Kinda like Obama's "days, not weeks" war.

To economic terrorism, ironically.

Don't know about terrorism, but it's certainly extortion.
