Whoa!
What is going on in this country?
Is this part of an intiative to spread the love around?
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill told the head of the Transportation Safety Administration she's all for the new full-body screening technology airports.
She says it gives travelers privacy they were denied with uncomfortable pat-downs before.
Senator McCaskill offered her personal take on screening during Senate testimony.
"I've had my love pats every single flight I have taken, which is at least twice a week for the last four years of my life because I have a knee replacement," she says. "So, I am wildly excited about the notion that I can walk through a machine instead of getting my dose of love pats."
McCaskill is wildly excited about getting regular doses of radiation instead of regular doses of love pats.
There has to be a better way.
There is.
Grope suspicious individuals. Don't subject everyone to this indignity. Do what Israel does. Use intelligence.
This is ridiculous.
And if the guy being groped in the photo above thinks he's getting "love pats" and doesn't mind the contact, then he needs to be put on a watch list of another sort.

McCaskill is going to be sorely disappointed if she thinks she's going to get out of her little love pats. Folks with medical devices such as insulin pumps or joint replacements will have to go through the enhanced pat downs anyway. My grandmother has had both knees replaced and can't go through the scanners because of the radiation.
That's what I thought. It didn't make sense to me when she said she looked forward to having the scans.
