"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
I was going to post this on the post about the leering TSA goons but it seems more appropriate here.
Remember : whenever Janet Napolitano and the TSA say that the nudiescanner can't save images they are lying. The DHS requires that the nudiescanner be capable of saving images. The policy may be that they aren't supposed to save them but to claim the machine can't do it is a naked lie.
Eventually her pants are going to burst into a fireball the size of Milwaukee (because she lies so much not because she wears giant clown pants).
I hate to say it but, often, lying works. A politician who lies and says that of course it'll lower the budget if he gives everyone free stuff is often more likely to get elected. In politics, there is no game show host to open an envelope and announce that Candidate A's policies are in fact the "correct" ones.
(apropos of nothing in particular, don't forget that Barak Obama promised a net spending cut so he'll need to cut like $3 trillion from this year's budget)
