MORE ON THE NEWARK DEBACLE:

Shutting down the airport, wasting thousands of people’s time by pointlessly rescreening them, treating them as animals in pens without food or drink or bathroom breaks for hours on end, causing them to miss their flights and screwing up their lives… none of that is Mr Jiang’s fault but that of the money-no-object TSA that imposes stupid petty rules on everybody else but doesn’t even follow its own. And that’s why Senator Lautenberg’s anger is misdirected: It’s not Mr Jiang’s fault that Newark’s “security” is a laughingstock.

Indeed.
