The bureaucracy that brings us this is the same bureaucracy we’re supposed to trust with our health care?
If you’re traveling today through America’s airports, just stop reading now. You’ll only make yourself even more anxious after reading about how the Transportation Security Agency managed to publish a how-to manual for terrorists to get through security checkpoints on its Internet site. Thanks to faulty redaction, terrorists now know the following:
In a massive security breach, the Transportation Security Agency (TSA) inadvertently posted online its entire airport screening procedures manual, including some of the most closely guarded secrets regarding special rules for diplomats and CIA and law enforcement officers.
The most sensitive parts of the 93-page Standard Operation Procedures were apparently redacted in a way that computer savvy individuals easily overcame.
The document shows sample CIA, Congressional and law enforcement credentials which experts say would make it easy for terrorists to duplicate.
The improperly redacted areas describe that only 20 percent of checked bags are to be hand searched for explosives and reveals in detail the limitations of x-ray screening machines.
They also can pick up some handy pointers on how to avoid getting screened at all. For instance, if one goes through security in a wheelchair, that won’t get inspected, and neither will the footwear of the person in the chair. When security checkpoints get crowded, TSA can skip most of its document checks, too.
Just in time for the busy holiday travel season. Air travel should be especially fun now. While the TSA tries to fix the mess they created, not only will travelers be subjected to more hassles at airports, they’ll be uncomfortable in the knowldedge that the agency tasked with keeping them safe has put their lives in jeopardy. But sure, let’s turn over control of our health care to federal bureaucrats.
Is the an Obama administration bug, or a feature?

I work for a community based healthcare agency that provides services to the poor.
In plain english: gov’t healthcare.
The bottom line: regulations & restrictions to providing services too often reduce these services to “Better than Nothing.”
Is this what YOU want for YOUR family?
I don’t think so.
