Those arrested moved up to 20 or more guns at a time via Delta flights in the passenger cabin. There are a couple questions you should think about when reading this story. First, why are guns being smuggled to New York? (Hint, it has absolutely nothing to do with restrictive gun laws in New York.) Second, where…

By Jim Vicevich / November 17, 2010 /

He is one of the finest creative writers on the net today. He’s the man who brought us the Obama teleprompter revolt and the now famous rework of Obama’s “car in the ditch” story. Now we have a little “Frank Sinatra” … Comply with me.

The TSA goes T and A … or why we saw this coming months ago.

By Jim Vicevich / December 15, 2010 /

This is the most unreal story I have posted in a while, but after all of the other pat down stories this should not surprise any of us. And, in truth, it’s not that the TSA official did this … it’s that he admitted to why he did this. Transparency!

By Jim Vicevich / November 23, 2010 /

The terror follies continue my little mobsters. But remember, this administration is smart, very smart. Unlike George Bush who was stupid.

The video says it all … but this time the You Tube shooter provides commentary as well. Scary? You decide.

Simsbury man punches TSA agent. Boiling point? Hot Air Howard Portnoy at 10AM

By Jim Vicevich / November 18, 2010 /

Sooner or later it had to happen but Simsbury? I could see the push back happening. We’ve been blogging on it for two weeks. But I never expected the push back would actually be a … ummm … push back?

Your Government in Action, the TSA and the 4th Amendment – UPDATE: Video added UPDATE 2: Media person opts out, gets the “once over”

By Dave in EH / November 17, 2010 /

Now, I’ve avoided this one for a while, the TSA being such a case of fish in a barrel that I figured sanity would have to rein them in shortly.  Instead, they have turned into the story that keeps on giving.
