Are we safer?

The Clarion-Ledger in Jackson, Mississippi is running with a blockbuster story today about security lapses in the local airport. These are not tiny indiscretions either.

While the Bush boys go after big corporate profits in Iraq, real attainable security at home is nothing but a farce. This is a deeply disturbing story and you need to read it. I am trying to get the reporter on Monday's program.

The allegations include not arresting passengers who attempt to board planes with loaded guns, getting advance warning of surprise inspections, allowing suspicious passengers to board aircraft, and knowing permitting passengers with explosive blasting caps to board commercial flights. This is one huge mess.
