To ensure that Americans never offend anyone -
particularly fanatics intent on killing us - airport

screeners will not be allowed to profile people.

They will continue random searches of 80-year-old

women, little kids, airline pilots with proper

identification, Secret Service agents who are

members of the President's security detail, 85-year

old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor

winning former Governors.

I guess it's just my imagination that I don't see the towers any more when I drive up the NJ Turnpike.

Come on now Cat. Even liberals need to agree that we should be using common sense and spend some extra time searching people that look like the enemy rather than looking up my Grandmother's skirt.
