Are they doing these pat downs in the open to embarrass us into going through the machine?
This, I believe, is beyond debate at this point. Is the Pope Catholic?

This is exactly what I told my wife when I explained to her that we, as a family, will never go anywhere near an airport again until they stop this disgusting practice.

I, for one, fly only when a job interview is involved. My present job does not involve travel, thank God.
