There will always be ways to get around stuff, but certainly, after the hijackings that had taken place earlier, you'd have thought that the airline industry would have been a bit more on its toes.
heh.
"Beinart, you may recall, is one of the Washington pundits who most loudly echoed the Bush administration's push for war in Iraq. "If the Democratic Party becomes the anti-war-with-Iraq party...we really will no longer have a 50-50 nation, we'll have a 60-40 Republican nation," Beinart declared on Fox News in 2002. "The Democrats will be in a kind of McGovernite wilderness for a generation.”
Because, you know, if you don't march lockstep with Prince Fuckwit, you're a traitor!

PFA Beinart gets ready for the Fox News invites:
In 2002, Democratic candidates tried to change the subject, focusing on Social Security and health care instead. In 2004, John Kerry substituted biography for ideology, largely ignoring his own extensive foreign-policy record and stressing his service in Vietnam. In this year's Senate and House races, the party looks set to reprise Michael Dukakis's old theme: competence.
On topic: I think this "verification" thing has something to do with rethuglicans trying to be the little princes of America. They set up such a stink having to take off their shoes and all the indignities that a good American shouldn't have to endure. As "good americans" with "nothing to hide" they don't want their petty prissy dainties inconvenienced.
Everyone else, of course, can get anally probed, especially if they are brown or swarthy.
So the FAA/TSA is leaning over backwards for the fuckwits, thereby endangering the safety of everyone else.
Uh, isn't the Beinart thread down below?
Garrison Keillor says there's only one song on the jukebox in the Republican Bar, George Bush singing "My Way" but there should also be Pink Floyd's "Money." I think that's their favorite. "Money, it's a gas..."

Point of order.
Sloppy seconds is a guy term. Sorry ladies, I digressed to my wild-ass youth to retrieve that piece of information.
Sarah, I think you missed Simels.
He referred to leaving for chardonnay-quaffing a few minutes ago.

That's pretty cool.
I tend to think it's more about finding a pretext to condition people to carrying biometric identification to prove you "belong".
The dream of technocratic security is a system that allows you to use technology to know where everyone is and what everyone is doing at all times. But to get there you have to get past a basic unwillingness on the part of the citizenry to be tagged and tattooed in this way. But if you just come up with a pretext to make it extremely time-consuming, annoying, and personally invasive to NOT be part of the system, eventually you wear down enough people that it becomes the standard. And once you've got those kinds of participation rates, the sheep shake their heads at anyone who objects, because "making a big deal out of things" proves that you're "extreme" and "weird".
Tena, did any woman ask for me while I was gone?
I didn't think so. 
More technology which will magically protect us from evil spirits.
Except it won't. What it will do is line certain pockets, i.e., payoff the investment in the GOP party that was previously made.
"Registered traveler neither offers the benefits to passengers nor the breadth of use that justify its introduction as a permanent program," James C. May, president and chief executive of the group, said in testimony before Congress in February. "It should be eliminated."
Fluffy--
Don't make such a big deal out of these things! Relax! The government knows what it is doing.

PFA Beinart
Liberals don't have a script because they don't have a Reagan. Since Vietnam, they've produced two presidents: Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. Carter's foreign policy is widely considered a failure. Clinton's foreign policy is not widely considered at all, because he governed at a time when foreign policy was for the most part peripheral to American politics. Ask liberals to describe a Carteresque foreign policy, and they tend to wince. Ask them to describe a Clintonesque one, and you'll most likely get a blank stare.
Everything he actually proposes as part of a liberal foreign policy was being done by Clinton.
Hahahaha.
Have a good one, darling moonbats.
Hahahaha.

Here's the thing.
The bad guys are patient. They're willing to wait years to strike. They get frequent flier miles, they get the biometric IDs, they're "reliable" by the system, then one day, using the "fast pass" to skip over most of the hassle and slip through security and do something.
This is an easy scenario to djin up.
Very easy.
Almost as easy as the one that no one ever imagined, the fly planes into buildings scenario.
I'm sorry that airport security is inconviencing monied frequent fliers. Too bad. You want to be secure flying, a price has to be paid by every single passenger, regardless of the size of their bank account or how much they contributed to the fratboy coward campaign warchest.

Not to rain on your parade, mks, but nothing, I mean, nothing that Boots has done since 9/11 has done anything to reduce our endangered safety wrt to airports.
The 9/11 attack were perpetrated by rank amateurs. It would have and should have been so easy to stop that series of crimes that it boggles the mind.
The currently practiced airport security is the opiate of the masses.

Keeps everyone looking out for box cutters now.

That could be a problem since (I have heard) that the contrails of the planes help to reflect the sunlight and thus mitigate global warming.

Not just WRT to airports - he hasn't done one goddamned thing to protect this country at all. The GWOT does not exist. They ain't doing squat about terrorism. They're occupying a non-terrorist ME country instead and giving lip service and nothing else to protecting this country.
Sold part of the ports to Dubai, after all. And he's supposed to be protecting us? Don't make me laugh - there hasn't been a bigger shell game since the State Fair left town.

Yeah.
(But I'd much rather kick the gong around than be pulled out of line as that Lucky Twentieth Traveler or whatever. I got that in 2005 -- my very first time boarding a plane after September 11th. Didn't need a mammogram that year.)

I agree with Fluffy's thoughtful comment.
The issue of foisting inherently crappy interactions on the public is a constant and chafing source of irritation to me.
In this regard, I highly recommend Lynne Truss' excellent book, Talk to the Hand.
Nobody really wants technobarbaric service delivery systems, e.g. automated (IVR) telephone voices and menus; ATM user fees; nobody really wants to buy products that are more like "beta" versions than a finished product; nobody wants shopping malls purposely configured to bewilder visitors in order to induce anxiety which is relieved by buying stuff.
But such things are thrust upon us from above, and eventually we accept the suggestion that these are actually good things, or at least that they're regrettably necessary.
How can this insidious process be reversed? How can ordinary people demand a modicum of quality and civility from the civil and commercial powers that run our world? 'Tis most vexing, no?
Lordy. Might as well create a new Federal agency to oversee the program. That fixes everything.
Not just WRT to airports - he hasn't done one goddamned thing to protect this country at all. The GWOT does not exist.
Well, then there's this:
More than 11,000 terrorist attacks occurred worldwide last year, killing 14,600 people, as networks inspired by al Qaeda but often not directed by the group spread, the State Department said on Friday.
While the State Department said a revised methodology meant the numbers could not be compared to the 3,129 international terrorism attacks listed the previous year, the figures may fuel criticism of the Bush administration's assertion that it is winning the U.S.-led war on terrorism.That's a hell of a revision in the methodology, huh?
I distinctly recall Bush dismissing conspiracy theories a la invading Iraq per oil and Israel via some war-cheerleading speech, but can't find the quote.
Any help?
Oh no, this is Abuse. Help is two doors down.
The currently practiced airport security is the opiate of the masses.
Exactly.
Stand in line, take off your shoes, go through the super-duper security system, get patted down when your underwire or your watch or the coins in your pocket go off, so they can watch you when that happens.
But don't you dare argue with them. And when they target you? Innocent until proven guilty?
Nah.
I want my country back.
Which is why the airlines want you to believe it was box cutters brought down those planes.
Years and years of negligence led to 9/11. The rash of hijackings of airliners in the late 60's & early 70's was the "wake-up call" that went unheeded.
Yes, for a period of time there was heightened security, but that was done away with due to profitability concerns.
STOP FLIRTING!!!

Check out this article from the BBC on Global Dimming which basically says that we have been underestimating the effects of global warming because pollution has been reflecting the sun's energy back into space.

Until we're back in a situation where people are more important than profit, I don't see any changes.
We live under an illusion that we're not interdependent when we obviously are; we take all this technology and infrastructure for granted, without any understanding of what it took to put it into place.

I've read that article.
It still does not address the issue that the burning jet fuel adds to the problem the contrail is hiding from us - do you see?
The GWOT does not exist.
Well, dear heart, it exists as a political tool to keep the current regime in power and as the most blatant ripoff of the public trust in the history of man.
And I do not understate.

Is ThreadZues an elected position or is someone trying to claim expanded authority?
Myself, the position suggests way too much responsibility.
Tena's right; it's all smoke and mirrors at this point, they might as well make things up.
I experienced this in the Army, over something incredibly trivial, the annual Army Emergency Relief drive. The requirement was that every last soldier had to be contacted about it; whether they gave or not was irrelevant, but someone had to certify that they were contacted.
Well, it got to the point where middle management said screw it, I've got bigger fish to fry than this. So they'd "certify" that every last solider had been contacted without knowing if they were or not, just to make the requirement go away.
This is a beehall innit?? Putsch!
Sorry, we're out of Putsch. We got Schlitz and Rolling Rock...

It still does not address the issue that the burning jet fuel adds to the problem the contrail is hiding from us - do you see?
Oh yes, I think I get your point: if we stopped burning fossil fuels it would certainly begin the process of possibly reversing (?) global warming.
What I think that article (and the recent Nova program on it) seems to say is that global warming is being masked by pollution. Which kind of puts us in a short-term bind if we suddenly stop polluting.
The SciFi "Monkey King" looks kinda fun.
billy b - I think that's what I was saying but I left out the political part. Yeah, I agree - they use it here to chip away at our civil liberties and continue to rob us blind behind the big scary terrorist. They ain't doing shit to protect us, however - Katrina should have made that clear as crystal to people.

"A crocodile in northern Australia has chased a storm-clearance worker up a tree and made off with his chainsaw. The 4.4m (14.5ft) saltwater crocodile called Brutus apparently took exception to the noise of the saw." ... "He chewed on the chainsaw for about an hour-and-a-half, then we finally got it out."
Speaking about civil structures that get unworkable, I just got my yearly Medi-Cal renewal application. I notice I've been reassigned to a worker in the Canoga Park Office. This may (I hope) be a mistake. I live in in Los Angeles, near Culver City/Century City. Canoga Park is (I think) 20 - 25 miles away in the San Fernando Valley. Previously, my worker was in an office 5 miles away.
Hope this is not a sign of the times. To get there by car is now quite expensive for someone on a fixed income. The bus system from here to there is difficult too.
We'll see.
malcom gladwell wrote a book which argued that if certain things change just a little tiny bit all kinds of interesting social phenomena will result.
He later admitted he found the calculus incomprehensible and had to spin all kinds of elaborate fictions to get his hands around elementary but complex ideas.
We saw a documentary a verrry long time ago about crocodiles communicating through terribly deep sound vibrations.
No one has contemplated the phenomena of the tipping point like malcom gladwell.
He wrote a new york times bestseller on the subject.

This is simply a way for friends of Congress to start an easy, guaranteed money making business. Who really cares if it actually does the stated purpose; what is more important is that it enriches another crony.
Atrios,
Good eye this program is a waste of money, and attempts to solve a problem created by a lousy program. Waste all around. TSA needs to be totally rethought, to determine if this type of checking is even necessary.
You aren't crazy. Everyone knew the kids at Columbine.
This is just a step toward this lamebrain scheme.
Excellent post. If you understand Security, you'd know that there are only two very simple steps: hard security at critical points; go after the bad guys.
Everything else is a distraction. No one is one whit safer because 200,000.000 nail clippers have been confiscated in the last 5 years. Everyone is more vulnerable because nuke plant security is still weak. Everyone is more vulnerable b/c the scarce pool of Arabic translators for intelligence is made smaller by the continued firing of homosexuals.
Stupid is as stupid does. We prove that every day now.
Having just flown through Schiphol, where they have the Privium iris-scan thing... it's a convenience for frequent fliers at the passport-checking lane, and that's all. It has nothing to do with security.
Oh, and the screening at Schiphol makes the TSA look like the bunch of amateurs they sadly are.
IF YOU THINK BUSH IS STRONG ON PROTECTING US FROM TERRORISM, READ THIS.
Here are some security facts the mainstream media RARELY mentions:
(1) Before 9/11, there were no sky marshals on domestic flights. Now, we have some, but the Bush admin won't say how many. And Bush refuses to commit to have sky marshals on every flight.
(2) Before 9/11, we screened only 1% or 2% of air cargo for bombs. Today, we screen somewhere from 3% to 5% of our air cargo for bombs. In other words, YOUR LUGGAGE IS SCREENED as you walk through the metal detector, but big boxes of air cargo join your luggage in the hold of the plane, and 95% of them are not screened at all. Remember, a few ounces of explosives brought down the Pan Am plane over Lockerbie, Scotland in the 1980s. Tons of air cargo are on these pasenger planes.
(3) Bush refuses to use federal troops to guard our chemical plants or nuclear power plants. This could be done for far less than 1% of the Iraq War cost, since we are employing military men in the U.S., some of whom are now assigned less important duty. We are paying them anyway, why not reassign some of them to this vital job?
(4) Did you know that a federal report in 1999 revealed that some of our chemical plants could be used to kill over 500,000 Americans IN A SINGLE INCIDENT if attacked by terrorists? Why then no federal protection? If a Democratic Senator brings up this topic on TV, the media anchor always acts like THIS TOPIC IS OF NO IMPORTANCE. I know they are protecting Bush, but don't these media clowns have any concern for their own country?
