Michael Ignatieff, asked by a reporter after QP today to comment on recent concerns about airport security.

If you’re in my business, you live in an airport. And so I have people touching my private parts all day long.

Well, there goes Ignatieff doing whatever the Tories say again. I mean, Tony Clement did say that we need more Canadian sex stories.

Another benefit of being PM – private dicks.

It is true though, the airport security has gotten completely crazy.

On a recent trip to San Fran. I went through one of the full body scanners in Ottawa (after having to take off my shirt, belt and shoes). Hadn't gone outside of the security zone, and once I arrived in Montreal from my departing flight, it was the same system all over again. Belt off, shoes off, and back into the full body scanner.

It is getting nuts

Darning is a dieing skill – machine knitted socks may help improve coverage.
