You know the TSA may just soon regret this if Ron Paul gets on the soap box about the TSA again during the campaign trail. Think about it; if you had to focus on one group the a majority of Freedom Loving Americans totaly disagree with it would be the TSA. If Ron Paul wants to make it a campaign issue,,,, Well I will just say that he would be a good one to do it.

I agree that RP would be the person to do it. But he'll probably claim that it was an inside job.

* Prevent the TSA from forcing Americans to either be groped or ogled just to travel on an airplane and ultimately abolish the unconstitutional agency.

This has been a main point from the start for his campaign. Personally I think that they should be pushing more on this point, but it is something Paul has already been talking about for a while now.

That's still a small minority. Most Americans - the non-Freedom Loving kind - like TSA.

Or, since most Americans have no health insurance, perhaps they just need the free x-rays and prostate/cervix exams?
