To ensure we Americans never offend anyone - - - particularly fanatics
intent on killing us - airport screeners will not be allowed to profile
people. They will continue random searches of 80-year-old women, little
kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who
are members of the President's security detail, 85-year-old Congressmen
with metal hips, and Medal Of Honor winning former Governors.
