More than half the time, I think Christopher Hitchens is way off-base, often taking a contrarian view just because it's a contrarian view. But I think he's spot-on when he writes, as he does today, about the follies of airline security. The TSA puts us through a lot of rituals and inconveniences that are supposed to make air travel safer…but they really don't. They just make some think the problem is well in hand.
