The Texas House passed the bill banning TSA pat-downs, but the Texas senate cowered and said no.

In a wierd move, the federal government threatened to stop all flights to and from texas if the bill passed.

Any moron should have been able to call a ridiculous bluff like that.  Any moron, except for the morons in the Texas Senate.

(Ron Paul is not in the Texas senate - he's a representative in Congress)
