yes, the tsa can ask you to remove your i/d from its case/wallet (similar to a leo) but they have absolutely no business (wash, rinse, & repeat) flipping thru your passport (or any other documents for that matter). it's w,e & i's and that's it-period and end of story-plane and simple (and they have been learning that the hahd way <boston accent>in recent court cases ^).
