Almost funny

If it wasn’t such a serious subject it would make you laugh out loud. Here’s a story from the Post about people being on the no-fly list and not being terrorists. This sums up competence of the Homeland Security Agency:

The Homeland Security Department, which houses both Customs and Border Protection and the TSA, will soon begin a Traveler Redress Inquiry Program for people who believe they have been wrongfully subjected to additional screening or denied permission to board flights to or from the United States.


I’m sorry how long ago was 9/11. How long ago was the Department of Homeland Security created and they are just now getting around to setting up a process where people can get their names removed from this list. Talk about incompetence with a capital I. Talk about wasting both the passengers and screeners time. Like I said you’d laugh out loud but for the fact of how important this is. If this department takes so long to do this, how is it possibly going to protect us from the bad guys. Then again this might have happened sooner with a little more money but we’re wasting all that by fighting in Iraq.

Think of all that money spent on Iraq spent here to make this country safer from attack.

There is hope two years from today Bush will be out of office. As far as I’m concerned it can’t come too soon.
