what is most bothersome to me about the TSA situation is:
1. Why didn't they start using dogs 9 years ago? Cheaper than these porn machines...and cuter too. And who hasn't dealt with a dog sniffing their privates one hundred times before? it's no big deal. But there are some people who simply don't want some stranger viewing their goodies.
2. The obvious move for waivers to certain groups which subverts the whole purpose. A woman in a burka who won't show her face or allow herself to be scanned, could be...1. carrying explosives or 2. Be a man posing as a woman carrying explosives.

Dogs and metal detectors...if that bothers any particular religious group, let them go through the strip search.
