White House: Terrorists Have Discussed Use of "Anal Cavity" to Conceal Explosives

Sources tell ABC News that intelligence has picked up terrorists discussing the use of prosthetic or medical devices to conceal explosives. The revelation comes as the White House today acknowledged that the implementation of new security measures at airports hasn't gone perfectly.

Americans by a 2-to-1 margin support the use of naked image full-body x-ray scanners in airport security lines, but fewer than half back aggressive new pat-down procedures, according to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll. Opposition to both rises among those who fly with any frequency.

The Transportation Security Administration has come under fire for new body scanners and what some say are highly invasive pat-downs.

Thomas Sawyer, a bladder cancer survivor, said he was humiliated after a pat-down broke his urostomy bag, leaving the 61-year-old covered in his own urine. Sawyer said he warned the TSA officials twice that the pat-down could break the seal.

I predict there will be a few TSA agents in traction and taking their meals through a straw before this is over.

“Seriously. It’s just a saline breast implant.”

This will not end well. They will either:

1) Find ways to conceal in a cavity.

2) Choose to bomb airports outside security checkpoints.

3) Bomb softer targets (shopping malls, tourist sites, etc.)

4) Send more cargo bombs.

Meanwhile, drop ‘em, junior!

Of course, the panty bomber and Richard "shoes" Reid were flying TO the USA from overseas, so these moronic inspections will do nothing to stop their ilk because the countries OUTSIDE the uSA do not perform these kind of idiotic inspections when you fly to the US. Exactly! TSA has caught no one. The bloomer bomber was turned in to authorities by his family, he still made it on board a plane.

This is the logical result of the illogical policy of trying to stop bad things instead of bad people.

Someones tagline was “Liberalism means that is someone craps their pants, everyone has to wear a diaper”.

Shoebomb = take off your shoes.
Underwear bomb= touch your junk.
Liquid bomb = no toothpaste or mouthwash or waters

Anal cavity bomb = bend over.

"I have had the new "rectal reconnaissance" procedure just like everyone else. It was only slightly inconvenient...I only had to take my head out of there for less than three minutes, and my TSA agent, Butch Betty, was very solicitous." "

So does this terrorist chatter gives Obama the right to check out the inner sanctums of grandma?

Sorry, Obama you are going to have to check the rear ends of some nasty smelling Muslims.

Grandma has had enough of your antics!!!!

So they are worried about medical devices. Well that explains why they’re harrassing those with medical devices, appliances, or prothesis. Doesn’t make it right, but does explain it.

I will not fly until this is resolved (I don’t see anyway to prove to them that an ITB pump is what I say it is.)

At first I thought they couldn’t detect it because it was beneath the skin, but medtronic themselves say they will be picked up on a scanner or metal detector.

Richard.......mmmmm......Dick knows all about concealing items in rectums. One could say it’s a pet project of his.

The biggest Anal Cavity in the United States is the wife of the asshole occupying the White House. You could put enough C-4 in her wide load to level Manhattan. So when is the Tough Shit America agency going to inspect the grand cavern Michelle My Belle?

So give ANAL and BODY CAVITY searches to MUSLIMS in the U.S. and prevent the ones NOT HERE YET from entering the U.S.

OK so take every single middle eastern looking man woman and child aside and give them a thorough examination. Maybe that will cause them at last to see what their “peaceful brothers” have done. Leave grandma and grandpa and all other ordinary Americans alone. Has there been a terrorist that doesn't look middle eastern? These idiots need to profile.

Or what about replacing an inessential organ, such as one of the kidneys or the appendix, with a kidney or appendix shaped bomb?

I believe there is evidence that they have already tried something like this.

Opposition to both rises among those who fly with any frequency.

This is a KEY phrase, folks. The polls that show such support for these gestapo tactics are BULLCRAP. They asked a bunch of random people - many of whom DO NOT FLY - what they thought.

This is a proverbial poll of "adults" at election time - it has no relevance to those who actually suffer from this idiocy.
