Congressional Jackasses

Wasn't it noble, even heroic, of the Congressional Jackasses to "volunteer" to participate in a trial run for the proposed Trusted-Traveler ID Cards that will allow certain pre-screened frequent travellers to bypass the security that ties everyone else up for hours?

Mowbray is, of course, rightly bothered that these Trusted-Traveler ID Cards constitute a security risk in their own right. But I'm much more bothered by the notion that, once again, Congress has managed to exempt itself from the havoc it wreaks upon ordinary people.
