Say it Ain't So |
Prepare for a shock: the Transportation Security Administration lied. That's the bureaucracy pestering passengers in airports while the Underwear Bomber waltzes past checkpoints onto his plane and sets himself afire. No matter: the TSA turned that flaming failure into an excuse to clamor more loudly for "whole-body imagers," i.e., cameras that virtually strip-search us. Though the TSA pretends these pornographic contraptions are its answer to explosive briefs, it's actually been lusting after them for years... full story |
