Showtime skit on TSA
 
I caught a brief promo clip of Damon Wayans doing a skit on the TSA on Showtime on a show called the Underground. Does anyone know where I might download this?

If we get more comedians doing skits on the TSA, eventually they will become a mainstream national joke and not just a national joke amongst frequent flyers. Then hopefully the next administration and congress will do the right thing and fix or disband the TSA. Well I doubt they would disband the TSA, but they could certainly make some significant corrections.

I agree, stimpy, that this would be a good outcome but it's kind of sad if a response would finally come from comedians' influence and not from the influence of citizens' efforts at writing to the TSA, congresscritters, etc.

Next administration?

I don't want to wait 2+ years to start shrinking the TSA.

I'm all in favor of closing this disgrace of an agency down today.

If terminal B is where LH lives, then I would say yes. I met a couple of wacko TSA drones there. I also met a nice TSA guy who apologized for his co-workers.
