A federal anti-terror law that requires longshoremen, truckers and others to submit to criminal background checks has ensnared another class of transportation worker -- mule drivers. [More]Yeah, I heard some terrorists were learning to ride mules but not dismount from them...
I wonder if anyone else has coined the term "mulejacker"? Dang.

There are always unintended consequences.
My favorite:
And, park officials say, the mules could be considered weapons of mass destruction only if they were aimed at something resembling food.
I would have to say that government is the biggest weapon of mass destruction. Esp when aimed at you and me.
What the news reporters don't tell you is that the boat operators (captains) are required to be trained, certified and licensed by the Coast Guard for the safety of the passengers. At a minimum they would have to have a license with an operating in an inland waterway endorsement (lowest level). Meaning they are licensed in any inland waterway in the US. There is a reason behind all this and it is for the safety of everyone. As we all know don't believe half of what you read or hear on the news. They only tell you their slant or half the truth. It's called making news not reporting it...
