Sobbing Woman Suffers Obama TSA Patdown

Am I the only one who  sees the irony of the Left getting their panties all in a bunch over so-called enhanced interrogation of known terrorists, and yet they are just fine with routinely subjecting innocent Americans to invasive and, IMHO, unconstitutional* searches at airports.

*4th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States - The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

I was just mulling this over in my teeny little brain and I think that what this country needs is a "No Fly Week".

We need to get everyone who is planning to fly on a specific week to cancel their plans for that week - take alternate transportation, or at least put off their flights until later.

Naturally, we would not be able to get everyone to go along, but if even only 1/4th of the flying public participated, it would send a loud and clear message to the airlines, and via their lobbiests to Congress and the TSA to stop these useless and unconstitutional searches at airports.

And once we bankrupt the airlines, then what? More bailouts?

Fire TSA the same day we fire Obama.

Sorry, Doc, but any vestiges of the Fourth Amendment went out the window with The Patriot Act. Ever since, that little fox hole of freedom has been filled and paved over.

Well, our founders made allowances for that, too.

In the Declaration of Independence...

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government...

And which ongoing criminal enterprise now runs it --- humiliating and scaring away passengers because Numbnuts of Nairobi refuses to force them to behave?

There's no irony.  It's quite deliberate, not accidental.  It's the usual liberal goal of normalizing behaviors that "make them uncomfortable" by making the guilty innocent and making the innocent guilty.  People who are terrorists get Constitutional rights and citizens of America lose theirs.  What's the surprise here?
