Brian Flemming at blogcritics has posted a well written one-act play described as “Ten years, twenty years, thirty years from now, people will ask the former U.S., “Why is it that you broke with the rest of the world and violated international law to invade Iraq?” Here’s how the dialogue might go.”
Seth Goldberg says that when he opened his suitcase in San Diego after a flight from Seattle this month, the two “No Iraq War” signs he’d picked up at the Pike Place Market were still nestled among his clothes.
But there was a third sign, he said, that shocked him. Tucked in his luggage was a card from the Transportation Security Administration notifying him that his bags had been opened and inspected at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Handwritten on the side of the card was a note, “Don’t appreciate your anti-American attitude!”
Here comes the punchline:
Nico Melendez, western regional spokesman for the TSA, said the note in Goldberg’s luggage will be investigated, but he said there’s no proof that a TSA employee wrote it. “It’s a leap to say it was a TSA screener,” Melendez said.

Jeez, I hope I’m a civil house guest – I don’t want to wake up on Friday with a zillion cards on me for snorting or talking in my sleep. ;)
