I looked at him and grinned and said, "Hey, just be glad they don't insist on checking your underwear for explosives!" His mother laughed and the security people grinned. He stopped complaining. 8-) I was flying commuter flights most of yesterday, and a teenager travelling with his mother was complaining about having to take off his shoes for the scanner.

But, I have to think aloud here... If we have 500,000 on our domestic "watch" list... maybe there is something more here. Because if we are fighting "terrorists"... then our enemy is the 100 Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, But, if we are fighting "man made" disasters, then might our enemy be the expanded 500,000 on the "watch" list. This goes well with Napolitano's earlier statements about returning war veterans. I have to think about this now. My head is sppinning. =-O You know I have been right there with you.

There can't possibly be 500,000 potential terrorists out here. There might be 500,000 people that are outspoken or critical of the government. But potential terrorists? When we have 100 Al Qaeda as a whole in Afghanistan... but we have 500,000 on our domestic "watch" list? Wow, I think the list should be made public immediately. What is the list anyway?

Again confirming the "warning signs" from THIS administration.  We no longer have terrorism.  We have man made disasters.  That is how Obama sees radical islam terrorism.  He doesn't want to even acknowledge it.
