They sure do blur that line between news organization and political propaganda machine.

Those 19 bad guys boarded flights with box cutters and knifes which were allowed to be carried, at the time..

Airport security is all it can be, it will not get any better regardless of how much we pay them.

Bingo! Screening should be one layer of defense, not the end all be all as they want to make it out to be. Extremely inefficient. Why can't we think outside the box on this I have no idea.

I can't believe it is 5 pages already and nobody has mentioned that the past tense of "pay" is "paid."

My apologies if English is your second language.

Let me clarify on this of where my comment was here, the guy in blue, who I see sit there and look at bags every day, gets paid more then me, and he gets better benefits then me (government).... is there something wrong with this picture? ALPA?

On a personal rant, I mean if their responsability is so high, is mine not higher? I would like to see them shooting NDB and VOR approaches down to minimums with 70 people in the back.

Damage control? What damage control? Is FOX News a political party? Do they run for seats in the House or Senate? Does FOX News run for President? FOX News is a news network. They are NOT a political party. I did not violate TOS by expressing my distaste for FOX or CNN.

Oh come on. We KNOW Fox is the ONLY reliable news network in this country. The rest are so biased it's depressing. Of course there are conservative commentators, but their news is second to none and first class. Watch Fox, pay attention, watch some of the conservative commentators, like Glenn Beck, and I promise you'll start thinking differently.

Then again you could always revert back to Keith Olberman and Rachel Maddow.

I've written Fox and told them that while the TSA is underpaid, they are making MORE than the PILOTS the screen!!!! It's outrageous. But then again, it's our fault. We need to step it up and fight like H. E. double hockey sticks.

Let's get our crap together.
