EXCERPT BEGINS
Caveat Lector- How does this reconcile with Bush trading temp worker
rights to Mexicans for oil drilling and oil stock rights
for Halliburton in Mexico? "Upwards of 6 million Americans
will no longer be allowed to fly under the CAPPS II system",
so I guess we better start driving toward Mexico City.

Which is Demican, which Reprocrat?

Facts Be Damned: CAPPS II Going Forward
Internal Border Controls Going Up At Selected Airports Next Month
The Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will begin testing the CAPPS II internal border control system at selected airports next month, according to sources and news reports.

As no airline will voluntarily cooperate with the TSA for fear of being boycotted a-la Delta, the TSA will resort to issuing a (possibly un-Constitutional) security directive that will force all airlines and airline reservation systems to turn-over the private data of the American flying public.

The TSA will then determine which Americans the Agency deems worthy of flying and which US citizens will be barred from air travel. TSA's own estimates state upwards of 6 million Americans will no longer be allowed to fly under the CAPPS II system.

Proud to be evil, the Department of Homeland Security is ramming CAPPS II down the throats of the American public; and facts be damned.


• Never mind that CAPPS II will make flying more dangerous and America less free.
• Never mind that internal border controls of the CAPPS II variety violate the US Constitution.
• Never mind that we are American citizens with rights and freedoms, and not potential terrorists.

Despite their obsession with color codes, the only hue Homeland Security really understands is purple, as in Kool-Aid; and the unpatriotic loons down at Homeland Security have been drinking a lot of it.

Not that that's the sole beverage being consumed by senior Homeland Security officials. In fact, the only thing bombed during the recent Orange Alert was the Homeland Security guy in charge of Dulles International Airport, busted with a blood alcohol content of 0.26 while on duty this past New Year's.
