For the "geniuses" in Washington, "fighting the last fight" is easier. That's why we get what we get:

1. Attack on pointy objects.
2. Defence of off-on-off-on shoe carnival.
3. "Touchy-feely" security with torso/breast rubs. (The "rear rub" will start once some fat terrorist experiments with adult diapers.)

... and that's just part of the government's domestic adventures.
