Looking through a couple of the cases even I could get them tossed on constitutional grounds.

Once again why were they reading the credit cards?
emphasis mine: because as Boggie Dog posted over here, "TSA has one aim only, to catch someone doing something even if it does not threaten transportation"

now as to the link you posted (http://www.tsa.gov/who_we_are/workfo...forcement.shtm), how come we don't see things like "alert tsa screener at denver nabs tsa screener trying to bring a gun to work"
