Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) appeared on Fox News Sunday to talk about the controversial Transportation Security Administration security pat-downs at airports. He claimed to see an elderly woman and a baby receive pat-downs, then a man in “Arabian attire,” he said, passed through without incident. He is now demanding that the TSA focus on catching “real” terrorists “using human intelligence.”

“We have to stop this inane political correctness that’s going on,” Broun said. “Political correctness won’t save any lives, but focusing on those that will harm us will.”

5. I have said this for awhile now

They have no problem with black, Hispanic, Indian or Arab people getting the full over invasive treatment from TSA. But look out when the TSA starts scrutinizing white bread families from Cedar Rapids Iowa.

And by the way, none of the 9/11 hijackers were wearning Arabic dress or Islamic apparel.

6. I think we may have some folks right here who feel the same way

Just a guess.
