security woes at SFO

I’ve been holding off on writing about the possible shoe bomber who sauntered away from SFO security yesterday, because as Ken says, the media has totally botched the reporting on this one. I’ve now heard and/or read at least four different stories; just getting the basic facts has been ridiculously difficult.

But as William Quick (whose archives don’t seem to be working) says, the details that are finally emerging demonstrate how pathetic our airline security still is. Remember those people who were working security on September 11? Well, they’re all still there today, and now they’re even harder to fire than ever! Doesn’t that give you a warm, cozy feeling?
