The White House and the Department of Homeland Security indicated today that they won’t yield to demands to amend new airline passenger screening rules that have been decried as wildly intrusive.
On the contrary, administration officials are quietly and aggressively defending the policies against what they see as a media frenzy of distorted information. For instance, the administration noted that fewer than one half of one percent of the 34 million passengers who traveled on airplanes in or to the U.S. last week were subjected to crotch-area pat-downs.
They also disputed the very notion of a public backlash, even as those words played ubiquitously on news tickers and as video parodies of the Transportation Safety Administration were being emailed around the globe. Before press coverage of the new rules reached a roar late last week, TSA received only 700 complaints nationwide about its procedures, an administration official said. The official insisted on anonymity because the information was not intended for public release. The issue is sensitive because physical space intrusions are just about the last thing an administration cast by Republicans as prone to governmental overreach needs.

Of course it is. Americans just THINK they are upset. Inside, we all know that we really like it.
And the Tea Party is all Astroturf! SanFranNan said so!
“Obama Administration: The Pat-Down Outrage Is Overblown!”
They ARE the ruling class. They don’t make improper decisions. The peasants have had it too easy, therefore THEY must teach them a lesson, and the lesson they WILL learn.....or else.
Line ‘em up like pins in the alley folks, and roll that ball.
Dang it Nachum! I keep forgetting to copy you on my posts that your pings brought me to the threads. Sorry ‘bout that. See #42 if you want.
No kidding? I hadn't seen that. I do believe that's a new low for Bozo. Like to see what Ras has.

What the HELL ARE WE DOING LETTING THESE SICK BRAINWASHED CULTISTS INTO OUR COUNTRY?
Islam in the United States needs to be gone after under the RICO act and dissolved.
you said it all. go to the head of the class
If that happened, the responsible TSA agent would remove his hands from Obama's pants after completing the check and agree with our community-organizer-in-chief: "Yep, no big deal".
Nope. Hitler gassed the people in mental hospitals.
Hitler used members of street gangs in the Gestapo. (Similar folks to ACORN, labor unions, and New Black Panthers.)
Once again Obastard shows his lack of caring about what the people want or think.
Where are the Liberals? Their silence is deafening, imagine if Bush were President now they would be calling for his impeachment over the TSA Facism.
This just shows how bankrupt the liberal left is they follow Der Fuhrer to hell.
The USA has turned upside down, nuns, children, the elderly are molested strip searched, and scanned.... all in the name of protecting us from Radical Muslims that want to kill us. The only true shame is that the Muslims won’t just be killing their enablers when they do have a successful attack and all this police state OBAMA TSA won’t have stopped one damn thing.
What do you expect from a sociopath?
My wife loves to fly with my daughter, and it costs me dearly.
Last night, she said “no more”. Last week she said the scanner was no big deal, but not now. She's done.
So the Airline industry has lost three steady customers in my family alone since Nepolitano took charge.
Every morning when he pees on it.
Actually I think it is narcissistic personality disorder.
Take a look at this site. Calls a spade a spade and provides some good insight into the danger.

Excerpts:
According to a Council on Foreign Relations Report, Saudi Arabia is the largest source of financing for al-Qaeda, and blamed both the U.S. and Saudi governments for not being tough enough.
Let there be no doubt. Al Qaeda ideology is essentially Wahhabism, and most, if not all members of al Qaeda are ideologically Wahhabist. Billions of Saudi dollars are flowing through legitimate businesses, charitable front organizations, Islamic Centers, academies, private schools, wealthy Saudi individuals and world wide criminal activities for the sole purpose of promoting a religious philosophy that is antithetical to democracy, the democratic ideals of freedom, tolerance, religious pluralism and Western civilization as we know it.
You,re right it is high time they get called out and totally exposed.

I agree with everything you wrote. We should never allow any muslim to become a citizen—they can not truthfully take the oath.
Islam is a political system that subverts our legal system and defies the Constitution (and logic and reason). They should never be allowed to be citizens and as long as they do not denounce islam and all their teachings. Christianity was aligned with Natural Law Theory....a religion that underpinned the logic and laws of this nation......our Founders NEVER thought we should have protection for cults and “so=called” ideologies that did NOT support our Western Civ Christian worldview.
He also used a lot of homosexuals from all the Weimar Republics cabarets which were filled with degenerates...who demeaned their bodies in such nihilistic ways that it wouldn’t take much to be able to look at any human as vile. Degeneracy leads to the ability to do inhumane and vile things to people—that is why societies always degenerate and fall into chaos when there are no morals. No respect for others comes from no respect for oneself. Many of the serial killers were homosexual—a truly intrinsic identity disorder that distorts life completely into nihilism and death. It is always anti-life.
