... More terrific work by that body full of liberty champions that we libertarians are suppose to defend by voting Mittens.

This is bullsh*t, but on that link I did find this funny story about the same guy and his successfully challenging a parking ticket.

That was awesome.

I love how one reason that this isn't a violation of the 4th Amendment is that you have a choice of how you're searched.

Yeah, lovers of liberty these 9 are. Glad the court hasn't been politicized. Checks and balances working.

Yep, radiation bath or molested by a high school dropout. That's what true FREEDOM is here in the Land of the Free.

Come on, don't you guys feel safer now?

Actually, with TSA I feel LESS safe. I fear them stealing anything of value in checked luggage more than I fear a terrorist. I REFUSE to have checked luggage when flying. I will ship it to myself via UPS before I check it.

You mean you don't think a poorly paid, vetted, and trained high school graduate isn't an effective way to counter terrorism?

Even worse one is.. they've agreed to "possibly" hear a case involving a couple of Nigerians and a Nigerian foreign company. I've yet to figure out how the SCOTUS has any responsibility in that case.
