Female senator tweets about “very uncomfortable” screening by TSA. “Today in my airport screening, test on my hands was positive,” Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) wrote to her 89,100 followers. “Got private, more aggressive pat down. OMG. #veryuncomfortable.” Says “hand lotion” was cause of the positive “test on my hands.” We weren’t aware they were testing hands now. Looking for flammable hand soap, are we?

Welcome to the real world Senator. So now that you've gotten a first hand experience of the complete ineptness of the TSA, what are you going to do about it?
BTW, why did you decide to join the little people and fly commercial? Where there no private jets going your way, or did you not wish to have to report the usage or pay the landing fees? Could it be that you didn't wish to have the "Bob" experience of having to back the cost? Just asking
More likely, she couldn't find a military hop to take.
What she is going to do about it is what ALL democrats do about things like this - introduce legislation that exempts senators from airport screening. Of course. That's the easiest way to fix HER problem - screw the rest of us, and tell me ONE senator (R or D) who would not vote for that? And do their best to make sure that it was buried deep inside some other boring bill so that the public is unaware of this perk they vote for themselves.
Karma
I believe I can name one. Rand Paul, he's already locked horns with the elitist TSA.
OK - you are probably right - but there can only be a few. I do remember something about him being "detained" by the TSA last year, but nothing really came from it.
What's this? A reliable Dumbocrat finally woke the hell up?
What's next. Harry Reid going to pass a budget "Because we need to control spending"?
Shame on Missouri for re-electing this stupid bitch. Harry Truman would be ashamed.
Harry "The buck stops here" Truman would be ashamed of the entire Democratic Party today.
