Schwarzenegger sends Guard to California's airports

Governor Schwarzenneger has deployed 300 National Guardswomen and men to California's airports to ensure that if liquid/gel/iPod terrorists escape from a British prison and fly to San Diego (without blowing up the plane), and then get off and start hijacking the entire airport, they can be shot.

"I can assure the people of California that we're doing everything to keep them safe and to return our airports to normal operations as quickly as possible," he said. "We need the public's help and their patience."

To make the state's airports more normal, it is necessary to first make them extraordinary and abnormal by filling them with armed, nervous teenagers.

I see.

Update: Sharon sez, "the Governator may have done that, but the city of Oakland has decided this is a political ploy and has turned down the offer of National Guardswomen & men for the Oakland Airport. Glad I live here in Oakland."
