National Security...HA
Almost 150 years ago, President Lincoln found it necessary to hire a private
investigator, Alan Pinkerton, for protection. That was the beginning of the
Secret Service.
Since that time, federal police authority has grown to a large number of
multi-letter agencies - FBI, CIA, INS, IRS, DEA, ATF, etc.
Now comes the Federal Air Transportation Airport Security Service. Can't
you see them now? These highly trained men and women in their black outfits
with initials in large white letters across their backs?
F. A. T. A. $. $. - - - - - - - I feel safer already.

true story.... the other Canadians will back me up on this.
10 years ago, our right wing ferderal party "The Progressive Conservatives" split down the middle. The moderates stayed as PC's... the extreme right wingers became "The Reform Party"
A couple of years ago they tried to re-unite. They wanted to be an alliance of the 2 parties.
The new name?
The Canadian Conservative Reform Alliance Party.
That's right... C.C.R.A.P.
It was subsequently shortened to the Alliance Party.
