But some of the comments are good:
[email protected]: "It is about time, now we can see that this so-called agency is more like a kids show than something they think is going to help us with terrorists. Homeland Security is one of the most useless agencies we have, maybe they will do better on small time tv."
[email protected]: "A is for Al-Qaida Today's threat rating is the number 2! Their propagandizing the 3-5 year old set now? Great..."
[email protected]: "Hush American babies don't you cry. On the terrorists we will drop bombs tonight. If those bombs won't kill their kids. I'm sure a bio-chem potion their graves will dig. Now children, would you like to play a game of who can stare the longest without blinking?"
[email protected]: "Hey kids! You want to know a really fun game? If you see mommy or daddy with a gun or spouting unamerican views call this number. Then cookie monster will come and put funny uniforms on them consisting of orange jumpsuits with hoods over their heads."

Kids might be more willing to listen to Grover and Rosita if they wore the new goose-stepping-style TSA uniform, complete with badge. In their current duds, they aren't really paramilitary-enough to command respect.

Or would you prefer a TSA puppet, complete with fake tin star, patches, glazed eyes, and goofy-looking (mouth-breather) grin?
aw, what the heck... how about the DHS/Ready.gov website about 50 years ago?

Well, I downloaded the 12 page PDF book. Nothing about tewwowists, but plenty of great learnin’ like “I’m a Firefighter. I put out fires.”
O rly?
My favorite quote:
Ha! 30 years ago, me and my buddies used to throw Lawn Darts straight up in the air.

My favorite quote:
“We do things every day to be safe,” says Grover’s mommy.
“Yeah,” says Elmo. “When we ride our tricycles, we always
wear helmets!”

I, for one, remember "duck and cover"...... and a bomb shelter in every yard.
Back then, it was called "civil defense" and Joe McCarthy.

To DHS: This response brought to you by the letter "F" and the letter "U". 
My son won't be reading this. He gets taught exactly what TSA is about when we go to the airport.
