My hope has been that this would mean that the TSA does not have money to purchase new body scanners for the airports that do not have them.

There is no reason that the cuts should result in any delays. The TSA could easily open up the metal detectors instead of using body scanners and could have the staff that normally performs gate checks, chat-downs, etc. open new lanes.

Unfortunately, the agency will likely try to make things painful for travelers. Any inconvenience caused will be artificial, and not a result of budget cuts, but a result of attempts to cause pain.

Think of this being a second show put on by the same people who put on the security theater.
