10. Just in time for the busy holiday travel season...
...lines out the door into the snow (well, no snow at HNL, we trust, but still...)

Under the new plan, more passengers will likely be subjected to secondary screening and pat-downs will include the arms and legs as well as the torso. More canine teams will patrol airports....

Brilliant move, morans. Take two or three minutes patting down each and every passenger (does that make us "patsies"? :-) ). Meanwhile, canine teams will be "patrolling airports", scaring the living, um, daylights out of some people, while what they should be doing is sniffing baggage and cargo for explosives.

What is the sudden impetus for this? Did we just go to a "Brown Alert" or something?
