Hooray for Pennsylvania!

It would be really interesting to see a state pass a resolution requesting
(banning?) the President from coming to their state if his visit required
them to disrupt commerce within the state. Bush (or anyone else post Bush)
would have to decide if it was worth the risk to come without the TFR's and
blocked roads (and other trappings of power). Maybe state's rights do have
a place in our modern world after all.

In a time when almost every state government seems to be jumping on the
We'

ve-got-to-shut-down-GA-to-protect-us-against-wackos-from-the-otherside-of-th
e-world bandwagon, the PA legislature is showing rare sense. They passed
a
nearly unanimous resolution asking the TSA and the feds to get real.

What a great idea, Bob! The closest I've seen to that in the real world so far
is the serious discussion in New York to bill the Feds for the cost of police
work due to the security for presidential visits.

Some people think they hear a call to the priesthood when what they really
hear is a tiny voice whispering "It's indoor work with no heavy lifting".

Oh geez! I just had visions of a military SWAT team that would clear out an
area before Bush went anywhere! You know, kinda like the Fedayeen!

You think you have short notice now? Imagine if they didn't have to tell
ANYONE where the Prez would be next? The TFRs would just happen mid-flight!
