She led us right up to the screening machine, made space for us in front of the line, and wished us well. I now am having trouble doing any TSA bashing.
Likewise, the Soviets and other communist regimes treated some people much better than they did the masses. I doubt the recipients of that favored treatment could bring themselves to criticise the regimes any more than you can bring yourself to criticise the TSA.

If I had a front of the line pass at the checkpoints, allowing me to save valuable hours, I might feel differently about the Terrorism Support Agency.
