Weird Al should feature this in one of his parodies.
Seriously, everyone who graduates college should have to pass Algebra, Logic, and at least some dumbed down Statistics. This is scary.

Well there's the dilemma isn't it? If he read the article and still thinks the article proves the TSA's Xray backscatter equipment is safe, then he's a bit "intellectually challenged." If he didn't read the article he reported on or deliberately decided to lie about the article's implications, then he's a bit "ethically challenged."

But for those concerned with health, if you dont want the TSA to touch your junk, its perfectly safe to go through the scanner instead.

Besides, I know a journalist. She's really bright, and very ethical. I don't think she'd print this shlop about TSA Scanner "Safety" uncritically.

Here's some more from Mr. Theissen from last November:
Lets Give Thanks for the TSA
In the coming days, millions of Americans will travel to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday with family and friends. May I pose a novel idea? As we go through the airport screening line, lets stop and say thanks to the men and women of the TSA who give up time with their families during the holidays to keep us safe from terror.
A lot of you know I'm a lifelong conservative/libertarian Republican, but people like this should be be run out of the party out on a rail. Does he lack of critical thinking skills, receive political grift, or a combination of both?
