It may be necessary, but it’s still illegal.
It is not necessary. Irrational fear is the rule here.
The FBI still can’t crack the case of how ACORN stole election after election. Being a “former agent” is hardly a recommendation.
I was an engineer on nuclear submarines in the 1970’s way back in the time machine, we have “sniffers” - equipment we could walk through the boat and pin-point a gas leak or amount of almost any kind of chemical.
I know that technology exists today - explosives, are all made of known chemicals so why is there even a need for any visual inspection/photo’s etc when these sniffers can just sniff a passenger to detect an explosive?
Did any of these Senate cretins ask him if every piece of baggage and cargo is checked for plastic explosives before being put into the cargo hold? There is no point in checking passengers by stripping them naked when they are sitting on top of bombs in the hold.

Flying was once a fun experience.
Glad I’m no longer required to put up with this crap.
Sean Hannity says the same thngm “We just need to suck it up.” And Dana Perino agrees with him.
Still waiting to learn who sent the anthrax letters..........
Whatever happened to the ‘sniffer machines’ in airports? Are they now obsolete???? When I went through Philly airport, they had one.
Necessary?
El-Al seems to do just fine without it.
I generally like Sean Hannity but he does not always exercise good judgement. The first afternoon this hit the fan he was on his radio show saying he did not have a problem with the pat downs. I guess he got so much negative feedback that by the evening TV show he was now again’st it and wanting the Israeli style security.
I don’t know when he is going to shut up about Bobby Jindal for President. A man who is not a natural born citizen.
Hannity said that??? Say it ain't so, Joe!
Considering that they won’t touch (pun intended) any of the effective alternatives, It looks like the government really wants people to walk into the showers.
People might want to ask why these full body scans are so important to the government and why the government is lying about them being stored.
It seems the Israelis can govern intelligently. Our leaders are PC drooling idiots.
This is just another ploy for us to become a policed state!
Saw a pilot on Fox last nite who has not worked since Oct. 15th since he refused to do either procedure. His atty said this is just the beginning of having these scanners on street corners, in stores & controlling the people in a policed state.
A nuclear plant needs to be kept as safe as an airport & they do not have to use these, they know how to protect & have been doing it for years before the airports!

I agree, that is their plan.
