Right-Wing WND and Action
World Net Daily is going to work on this.
This popular conservative news site is getting on the bandwagon!
They have an intelligent poll that actually looks for various descriptive responses. Requires registration to keep it honest.
They are asking for videos photos and reports.
They put the whole thing at the top of their very popular web page today.
These guys are going to be our friends on this.

Just curious and trying not to drift this off into OMNI/PR, but why is it ok if a left wing site posts something like this but a right wing site requires an apology?
This isn't a political issue. I've met people on both sides who are equally pissed about this.

A united front fighting against this injustice requires soldiers from all groups.

The important thing is to look for common ground where people can agree to work together. I decided a couple years ago, for example, that the ACLU has a place in my life. Although I detest a lot of what they've done, they've also done a lot of good, and I feel that they're on the right side on this issue.

My comment may have been wrong to use in the OP, but I wanted everyone to read it before prejudging the location. Sorry if I offended anyone. OP has been changed.

I will say that as a proud tea party neoconservative, I am 100% with the bulk of you on this issue. Politics should be put aside when it comes to silly things like this.
Let's remember that it was Janet Napolitano & company in the Obama admin that came out with glowing statements about this new technology

Luckily, this issue hits both sides - TSA may actually beat Congress and the IRS for least popular sector of the federal government this year.

Better yet, let's put POLITICS aside like you said in your first sentence, and not act like feces-throwing partisan babboons like your second.

SIMPLE POLL: "Do you approve of the job TSA is doing in our nation's airports?" Yes/No.
I'd bet approval would be somewhere in the 20's.

This is an issue that transcends politics because it affects the fundamental freedoms that affect all human beings. The freedom to be secure in our persons, safe from unreasonable searches without reasonable suspicion or probable cause is fundamentally human. It knows no nationality, no race, no age, no creed, no age and no gender.
I proudly stand beside anyone who opposes these intrusions, which are not silly because they are the abrogation of all our rights. You are human, and so am I, and we deserve better.

I kind of agree with what you said, except that I would put it it like this:
