| Feds admit storing checkpoint body scan images |

And that's how you take away one's liberties. Just stick the knife in a millimeter at a time. |

| #3 The feds going to tie this into ObamaCare to reduce costs? You need an MRI or CAT scan? Not now. If you've had a recent airport scan it will replace any requests by doctors for MRIs, PET scans, or CATs. |
