Sure, but Bush is the President, and he's in charge of the TSA. As Harry Truman said, the buck stops with the President. And if Bush didn't want a TSA, then he could have vetoed the legislation.

Besides, the 30 mile TFRs are because of him, right? The FRZ and the ADIZ is there in large part due to the Secret Service, which has a mission of doing what? Making sure the President is safe.

So if Bush said, we don't need 30 mile TFRs around me, and we don't need an ADIZ and FRZ, they'd go away because the Secret Service -- and the rest of the government -- answers to him.

With Bush stopping at my base in Tucson on Monday, I'm going to be very curious as to the NOTAMS that'll be in place.
