Which is why I continue to be amazed that no one demands that every single member of the executive branch, traveling with or without a detail, should be required to go through the same security procedure as anyone else. Chertoff, et al - ANYONE flying commercial, members of Congress, etc. should be required to go through the line.

Unless and until government officials have to experience the same thing we do, nothing is going to change. If you're traveling with a detail, then let them show their credentials, but make the elected official, administration official or whatever go through just like the rest of us.

Until that happens, nothing changes.
