That's very interesting information.
So, according to TSA, this new survey is one that should be interpreted as lauding TSA for all of the good work they do.
It would appear that the facts do not support such an assertion by TSA.
According to this survey, 74.4% of respondents agree with using electronic strip searches. That is a 7% drop from a survey conducted by CBS just 2 years ago where 81%, or according to TSA, "
According to a new CBS poll, 4 out of 5 Americans support the use of advanced imaging technology at airports nationwide."

It would seem, based on conflicting data provided by TSA, that they really don't understand what the American people want. And frankly, they probably don't care.
However, a 7% drop in support is significant. It's unfortunate the management at TSA that is posting this information on their own website is too stupid to realize that.
