i found the quote that the airlines has to provide $400M in screening catering and supplies to the TSA to be interesting. What is in this -coffee and donuts?
You have got to be kidding me!! Why would the airlines provide anything to the screeners?? Let them buy their own damn coffee and donuts! That is ridiculous! God, crap like this gets my blood boiling.

I read the statement in the article and would like to get this clarified. I would go ballistic if this actually meant the government was forcing airlines to feed TSA staff. I hope he meant something completely different by that statement.
