Here is the description of this picture from the AP website: “TSA officer Robert Howard signals an airline passenger forward at a security check-point at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Monday, Jan. 4, 2010, in SeaTac, Wash.” I think that it rather pictures the future of the TSA. Will anal exams soon be required before boarding airline flights? We are certainly headed in that direction. And the tragic thing is that if the TSA put an ad in the New York Times or USA Today wanting to hire people to do anal exams, it would probably be flooded with applicants.
