Only Republicans support Racial profiling as a TSA step
I am more than a bit annoyed, and toward the end am waxing Olbermanical.

Majority of Republicans favors racial profiling at airports, while Dems, indys oppose
Republicans are the only group that favors racial profiling at airports, with a majority of them supporting the policy, while Democrats and independents are strongly opposed to it, according to internals of the new Washington Post/ABC News poll that were sent my way.
SNIP
I've now obtained the partisan breakdown on this question, and it finds Republicans at odds with the rest of the country:
to which I say: [MORE BELOW FOLD}
to which I say: Great work on getting the party affiliation break down, and my is it ever broken.
Meanwhile, Speaker-to-be Boehner and senior colleagues are not pornoscanned. Nor are they fondled. They are waved through. As reported by NBC 29 http://www.nbc29.com/... and an ungodly number of other locations
TSA: Gov't officials with security details don't have to go through airport X-rays, pat-downs More>>
WASHINGTON (AP) - No airport pat-down for the incoming House speaker.
On Friday, the GOP's John Boehner was guided past the metal detectors and hand inspections given to other passengers on his flight home to Ohio.
I mean, Goddess forbid that the hoi polloi learn if Boehner hath a boner or if the Divine Sarah oh, never mind. High muckey mucks are waved through if they have their own security details.
I will leave it to others to decide if Tom Knapp's report http://knappster.blogspot.com/ is correct that persons critical of the TSA pornoscan program are being tagged and traced as domestic extremists. It appears to me that the report traces back to a single source.
And the security detail? Of course, that security detail should be given an appropriate uniform. I believe the design for Richard Nixon's White House Police Dress Uniform is available. Though Mr. Boehner might better ask one of his erstwhile colleagues where to get the really good stuff. That colleague. The re-enactor. Silver trimwork on black looks really snazzy.
And what is that security detail called, Mr. Boehner, the John Boehner Life Guards? I believe that sounded better in the original. That would be the Liebstandarte John Bohner, with an umlaut on the "o".
And for you clueless Republicans upset that the TSA is not doing racial profiling, I have some good news for you.
They already are.
