TSA "Intelligence"
So I'm watching CNN -- and the Atlanta airport manager said that they are waiting on TSA "intelligence" to determine how long this level of security will last. I almost spit out the water in my mouth laughing.

Using "TSA" and "intelligence" in the same sentence taints the word "intelligence" in a not-so-subtle way. It actually begins to change the meaning of "intelligence" itself to something more along the lines of "idiocy," "stupidity," and "dumbarsedness."

The TSA is really screwed when it comes to modifying nouns and adjectives.
TSA Intelligence = Oxymoron
TSA Stupidity = Redundancy

The TSA couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel.
