who are already taking it in the shorts (literally and figuratively) by the TSA gropers and Michael "no,-I-don't-know-what-conflict-of-interest-means" Chertoff's radiation scanners, and now it looks like that same government is working hand in glove with Boeing to cover-up the use of faulty parts in the assembly of the Boeing 737NG aircraft. According to some of the aviation experts and Boeing whistleblowers interviewed on the Al Jazeera program linked above, these parts could cause fail catastrophically in flight bringing an aircraft down. Come to think of it, if the US government really is so damned concerned about our safety in the air that it insists on having the right to grope our privates every time we get on an aircraft, why has it done zilch about taking corrective action to ensure aircraft that are flying with out of spec parts are inspected and fixed.
