Reid Will Force Confirmation Of TSA Administrator Errol Southers Back Into Motion

Wow, I wasn’t aware this had been going on for so long.

Reading some of DeMint’s absurdities:

That attack is a “perfect example of why the Obama Administration should not unionize the TSA and allow our airline security decisions to be dictated by union bosses,” DeMint said in a statement.

DeMint said that if TSA workers were unionized under Southers, “union bosses” would have the power to delay further security improvements to airports.

“I hope this incident will lead the president to re-think this policy and put the interests of American travelers ahead of organized labor,” DeMint said.

So DeMint’s answer to this is blocking the Southers appointment? The greater danger at this point is having a leaderless TSA as a result of DeMint’s obstinance.
