Cause and Effect. 9/11 caused this whole TSA dept. The current admin is opting for the method, as a control mechanism. Expect to see this type of activiy expanded. It will come, sure as the dawn breaks over the East. end Semper FI.

Agree. AMTRAC is not the best, but a whole lot safer than puddle jumping light aircraft. Pat downs notwithstanding, I opt for trains. end Semper Fi

Resistance is futile. Per Star Trek Data's evil twin. Seriously. One more intrusion on the privacy of citizens, really imposed on us by the Rad Islamics. Bear up folks, it will get worse. End Semper Fi

Deere Equipment USED also wil see increases in sales. Those pieces of equipment currently seen rotting in the Cotton. Soy fields will turn up at local equipment sale lots. Drive I 55 across the Delta. Equipment lots are springing up fast as cotton. We can expect to see 2011 replace these used items, at the ADM and Corp farms, with the used stuff going off to the small guys. Cotton, Soy, Corn, all good crops this year. Watch the wx, EPA and SEC. They all work against the farm. end Semper FI

Opine Defunding the Czars literally meand shutting off thier pay. Now, this is a budget item. Given the New Reps have the Appropriation, and Authorization Budget strings, pay cuts should work. However, their are Hidden Budgets paying these folks, not to mention the endless deep pockets of Soros, Shadow Government payroll. Also, these type of Czars have multiple sources of income, not necessarily from the DC payrolll office. end Semper FI

"Browner, a darling of left-wing billionaire George Soros' environmental justice circles and the wife of a top energy lobbyist, is a dangerous woman whose ideological zeal has helped power the Democrats' war on prosperity. Sunlight, as always, is the best disinfectant -- and a much-needed monkey wrench in the Obama job-killing machine." Opine Again, Michelle M... has hit the mark. This Czar, working under the Electorate Radar, is atypical of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Level CS appointees. Her position allows for policy influence, issue actions, and the attendant dirty tricks. Lets forward this to Glenn. B.... he has the R and D team to put meat to the articles bones. Also, the Hutzpah to lay it on the line. Again, Forward, to the NEW reps,...

Hooo Rah Agree. Mrs Palin is Top Gun in my opine. end Semper Fi

Well, Pres O, may well not get to try. Reading the Leftist sites these days, it seems like he is about to be tossed aside. There are plenty of Pres Wannabes, in the East Wing. Also, the Soros Funders, in the West Wing, would like a shot. Prediction. Pres O will "Step aside, as I have tryed my best" and let the Leftists run for the Oval desk. end Semper Fi

"What's not to like? Even better, she turned out to have greater depth and more savvy than her detractors will ever admit. Is she the best possible presidential candidate? Certainly not. But when, since Ronald Reagan, has the best possible candidate run for the presidency? Is she better than anyone else who's likely to run? Probably. Besides, the left hates her so much that their hatred alone makes her a plausible candidate. Hooo Rah. Agree. Could not have said it better. Semper FI

Agree. Mrs Palin has the Tea Party guts, the hutzpah, the very essence of what Andrew Jackson had in the 1800s. A leader, per se, per SUNTZU, does not need a MBA in economy, a MFA in culture, a BS in engineering to lead. Gen Patton had none of these. He knew how to get there from here. He led, others followed, to h>> and back. So it MAY BE wil Mrs Palin. Semper Fi
