Once again, leadership from the Democrats save the GOP--and the nation--from Conservative ineptness. You can't make this stuff up.

Rest easy: Travelers will be groped by the TSA no matter what. Our national security depends on groping air travellers. Thing is, TSA agents will be groping without pay. So if you're groped by the TSA, you'll either be groped by somebody who's really pissed to be there groping you. Or by somebody who's groping you as a labor of love. Thanks, Obama!
