As travelers suffer through long airport security lines, the Transportation Security Administration is spending millions on advertising, public relations, new uniforms, and office furniture.

The agency has blamed budget constraints for the nightmarish lines, which have caused 4,000 Americans to miss their flights and 100 travelers to sleep on cots overnight at Chicago’s O’Hare airport.

However, an analysis of recent government contracts reveals that over the past month the TSA has spent more than $2 million on various services unrelated to increasing manpower or improving security.

People need to stop flying.  Period.

This is another case of liberal bureaucrats making situations worse on purpose, because they always want a pretext for whining about inadequate funding.  Government is never massive enough for them, it's never sucking up enough money for them.

Well, they're right about the sucking part.
