Based on your statements I'm guessing you think that isn't the reason and his only reason is to be big brother, take our rights away and/or protect the power elite?
If you are correct then the only rights I can see that I have given up due to the new TSA requirements are that if I wish to fly I may be scanned or felt up.
Not saying I'm totally comfortable with any of it but if that helps assure the flight will be safer and I won't be a passenger on a plane as those during 9/11 I'm more than happy to give up those rights. If not I have the option to drive, take a train or boat.
As for big brother? Not much I can say.. What information is he collecting? A blurry body scan? Most doctors have better detailed records of their patients that I'm sure the government already has access to.
Criticism is good! But provide information as to what you think should be done instead of just criticizing. If you have no alternative suggestions for your hypothesis then is there really any point in complaining?

It's probably more to do with the fact that should anything else happen at all related to terrorists / planes Obama will be blamed. At least he can say he did something if he lets it go through, can you imagine the right wing nuts screaming if someone blew up a plane and he was against scanners? It wouldn't matter at ALL whether or not the scanner would have stopped it.
