And you thought YOU were the victim when it comes to enhanced security pat-downs from the TSA-holes. Actually .. it not YOU being victimized. It's THEM. Now this is priceless .. are you ready? The American Federation of Government Employees, the goonion that represents TSA workers, is claiming that TSA workers are the victims of abuse and we need to do more to protect them! Union President John Gage wants the government to issue pamphlets to inform TSA operatives of their rights and options. Gage says, "TSA must act now -- before the Thanksgiving rush -- to ensure that TSOs are not being left to fend for themselves." I'll tell you where this is leading. This is just one of the opening salvos in efforts to get collective bargaining rights to TSA workers.
Think about this for a moment. We have a president who is completely and totally in love with unions. So let's say that before the voters manage to throw this menace out of the White House he simply signs an executive order giving the TSA union what they want. At that moment the president of the TSA union becomes one of the most powerful people in this country. Sure, it will be illegal to strike ... but remember who is sitting in the Oval Office. You don't think for one nanosecond that Obama would show anywhere near the spine that Reagan showed when he fired the air traffic controllers, do you? So a strike is called, and our nation immediately goes into economic melt down since nobody will be flying anywhere.
And back to the TSA groping.
Are these enhanced screening techniques only a taste of what's to come? These TSA techniques may not just be isolated to airports, but coming to trains and subways as well! This article from USA Today is dated July 17, 2010. The article reads,
Protecting riders on mass-transit systems from terrorist attacks will be as high a priority as ensuring safe air travel, the new head of the Transportation Security Administration promises.
In his first interview since taking over the TSA, former FBI deputy director John Pistole told USA TODAY that some terrorists consider subway and rail cars an easier target than heavily secured planes. "Given the list of threats on subways and rails over the last six years going on seven years, we know that some terrorist groups see rail and subways as being more vulnerable because there's not the type of screening that you find in aviation," he said. "From my perspective, that is an equally important threat area."
This is only the beginning, folks. This new effort by the TSA is only a test to see how much we as Americans are willing to tolerate.
The government keeps pushing and pushing .. the Islamic goons are smiling .. and American keep submitting; but for how long?
