Maureen Dowd's column in the NYTimes on the airport pat-downs:
"Airport screening procedures are more reactive than imaginative. There's an attempted shoe bombing, so all passengers must shed their shoes. Two female Chechens may or may not have sneaked explosives onto Russian planes, so now some T.S.A. genius decides all women are subject to strips and body searches."
"If we were buttoning up the borders and making the airlines safer, unbuttoning in public would be more bearable."
