Thumbs up My wife is really p------ off

First, I've been married 19 years and don't know the gender of my wife's Ob/Gyn.

My wife (travels 3-4 times per year, all vacation-related) is very angry about the new TSA grope/assault since the Cleveland Plain Dealer had a front-page article last Saturday.

We're in agreement that under no cirmcustance will our teen-age children go through the Nud-e-Scope next month when we travel.
My angle was gross invasion of privacy.
Her opinion (with a master's in pediatric nursing) is radiation, recent calibration of the machine, and, also, invasion of privacy.

We've told our children they are not to speak/reply to anyone in a TSA uniform, unless there's some sort of emergency or they are lost/separated from us at an airport.

She's really in a "lather" over the whole thing.
She's written our U.S. Congressman, both Ohio Senators, and our Senator-elect. ^
