Obama government: inept, incompetent, bureaucratic

Security theater - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Security theater is the practice of investing in countermeasures intended to provide the feeling of improved security while doing little or nothing to actually achieve it.[1] Some experts such as Edward Felten have described the airport security repercussions due to the September 11 attacks as security theater.[2]....

They call it security theater -- what a waste of time, money, and resources!
