There was nothing ad hominem about his conclusion. Do you even know what that means or did you use it because it sounded cool?
The left does create more bureaucracy and does increase government far more than Republicans or haven't you been paying attention the last few decades? How about the last year? Hell, how about the last few days?
And he was also right about Political Correctness and being against profiling something the left has been a champion on.
"Big government liberals" was an insult that had nothing to do with the subject at hand. And, again, it still doesn't, so, I'm not going to respond and further hijack thread.
the big government polices coming out of the Left wing of our government.
I've addressed profiling elsewhere in this thread and a couple others, and don't feel like repeating myself.

Weren't you just complaining about someone takin swipes at ideology? But, here you go, you're rollin'.
That's ok, profiling will lessen the pool of potential recruits....
Profile & then do some more checks on the 'normal' looking passengers.....
Call it profiling +........
I heard he lit them, but all they did is burn his leg and didn't go off. :lol:So....he didn't ignite the explosives...they failed....just say'n.
This could be a dry run designed to test the system.
Good of you to admit it.
Riiight. We should just ignore the obvious. Then we could be more like you.
Actually, there's a wee bit more than that isn't there?
Islamic terrorists? Yes
Kill Americans? Yes
Muslims? Yes
Now I ask you again, why did the Islamic terrorist in Texas received every liberal apologist on the planet screaming "wait and see" denying what he was while ignoring the evidence we already had while this guy isn't getting a defense for the same action?
Dry runs generally do not involve getting captured.
Of course, as somebody said, Nigerians do not tend to be that bright.... so maybe the guy just failed to understand.
The guy was trying to blow up a plane with 220 passengers on it. Of course it was terrorism.
What isn't know is if this was a plot dictated by a specific terrorist organization or just some crazy guy.
You know, the TSA's new regulations that came after this incident are outright asinine. I mean, no moving in the aisles 1 hour before landing? Not accessing any baggage for that time? Nothing on your lap at all during landing? With all due respect on the aisle thing, if I'm on a long-ish flight, fall asleep after eating whatever, and I have to pee badly enough, stand aside and let me use the lav, or I'll just piss in my paints in the aisle and let the cleaning crew on the ground deal with it... not my fault you guys tied to keep me from using the bathroom despite pointing out how badly I needed it a dozen++ times.
I wish I was kidding, but I'm not. The TSA has gone beyond asinine now.

I could be mistaken, but I believe the rules you're referring to are not applicable to all flights, but only to flights from Canada to the US. I heard that those regulations were from the Canadian version of the TSA, not ours.
No, the Democrats insisted that Bush create the department.Yeah, Department of Homeland Security was the WORST idea Barack Obama ever had.
Mutallab boarded the plane in Nigeria and went through Amsterdam en route to Detroit, according to Peter King of the U.S. House Homeland Security Committee. An official briefed on the attack said yesterday the U.S. has known for at least two years that the suspect in the attack could have terrorist ties. King said Mutallab was not on the no-fly list.
A U.S. defense official said that Mutallab has been on a list that includes people with known or suspected contact or ties to a terrorist or terrorist organization. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
King, the ranking Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee, said no federal air marshals were on the flights from Nigeria to Amsterdam and from Amsterdam to Detroit. Mutallab did not go through full-body image screening at either airport, the congressman said.
Profiling is a viable tool, has been used, and it works. BUT, it has its flaws, and there is a possibility that a person that doesn't fit the description will be used.
As was said eariler by the MSgt, we are at war, we need to either make a decision to step on a persons rights to catch our enemy, or to stand back and get our butts kicked because we are being too politically correct?
The downfall is this, if we choose the first option, then we are giving up some of our freedoms.
This straw man is starting to piss me off.The only people bringing up political correctness here are the ones in favor of profiling. Those against it have been arguing against it because its practically unfeasible, nothing more, nothing less.
No, the Democrats insisted that Bush create the department.
Would any profilers care to spot the Muslim bomber in this pic?
Call it a late Christmas gift.Good of you to admit it.

Nah, you failed the test. You were suppose to say all but the asian and white girl.They all look like bombers....:mrgreen:
