"Orlando-Sanford International Airport has abandoned the TSA. Now, Orlando International and Orlando Executive airports are considering losing TSA agents.
All this is happening during the boiling controversy over the full-body scanners and pat downs.
"It's very explicit, it's like doing a nude photo shoot," Congressman Mica said.
The TSA was being criticized even before the scanners went on-line at OIA. That seems to be the straw the broke the camel's back."

I love it! The people have had enough of the airport nazis and the head nazis can’t understand it! The folks are supposed to bow down in submission and do what they’re told! The folks are revolting! I love the American spirit!

Let's get this straight: TSA says they will not do the full-monty grope on those under the age of 12. So, TSA says we grope 80-yr old ladies because the terrorists would use 80-yr old ladies if we gave them a pass, but TSA is saying 12-yr old children get a pass and terrorists won't use them (contrary to real-world experience).
Whaaaa?
