IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE- T.S.A.-WORKERS FROM HAVING A ,UNION,ORGANIZED LABOR,,,,,THAN TO WORRY ABOUT TERRORIST ON A PLANE,,,

--Could this past Christmas day attempted bombing by a terrorist have been avoided if Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC) would have allowed President Obama’s pick for Transportation Security Administration (TSA) administrator to be voted on? Did this suicide bomber manage to get on a plane with a bomb simply because DeMint was playing politics with our national security?
This past September President Obama nominated Errol Southers to be the administrator of the TSA and because DeMint fears that Southers might allow TSA workers to form a Union (DeMint really doesn’t know for sure), Senator DeMint won’t allow the Senate to vote for his confirmation.
The Republican party and their right winged media opinion echo outlets such as Fox News, have been quick to blame President Barack Obama for allowing Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, of Nigeria to get on Northwest Flight 253 on Christmas day.
They echo their reasoning that because President Obama announced that he was closing the detainee facilities in Guantanamo Bay, trying them in US Federal courts, putting them in Federal prisons and ending the Bush/Cheney era of torture, we are less safe and that is why this man was able to get on the plane in the first place.

--WHICH IS COMPLETE AND TOTAL B.S.---THE-- SHOE BOMBER--- RICHARD REID ---IS IN FEDERAL PRISON RIGHT NOW-AND WHEN IT' HAPPENED -BUSH AND CHENEY, AND TOM RIDGE, WAS ALL BRAGGING,, ABOUT HOW JUSTICE WAS SERVED ...--PURE HIPPOCRITS--!!!!-ONE AND ALL--
The republicans and their right wing spin machine won’t ever mention the FACT that Senator Jim DeMint may very well be responsible for allowing the bomber on the plane. They will NEVER mention what DeMint had done. All because they are against unionized labor in the United States, and they favor corporations over employees.
Right now you are thinking how could Senator Jim DeMint a Republican from South Carolina be responsible simply by blocking Errol Southers from being the TSA administrator.
Here’s why. Last month the father of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, went to the U.S. embassy in Abuja, Nigeria to let them know that his son is mixed up with radicals and should be watched, but he had no specifics according to congressional sources speaking to the Boston Globe. In the same article in the Boston Globe it also says; “congressional official said Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a 23-year-old Nigerian, popped up in U.S. intelligence reports about four weeks ago as having a connection to both al-Qaeda and Yemen.”
So why wasn’t he put on the “No Fly List”, intelligence reports linked him to al-Qaeda.
Because Senator DeMint held up President Obama’s pick who would administrate and enact security changes and updates to the “No Fly List”.
The current airport security and the TSA policies were all placed into action by former President Bush--!!!!!!!!
