I'm not sure they even read what they're voting for anymore since a good enough number of them have been bought off by special interest groups.

It might have something to do with this little item I read on Huffington Post. Here's the link to the BBC story:

Apparently, a British guerilla artist named Banksy put a life-sized sculpture of a Guantanmo detainee on the grounds of the Thunder Mountain Ride at the Disneyland Park in Anaheim. I thought it was pretty clever, but apparently the folks at Mouseschwitz didn't get the joke.

Hmm I bet this is unconstitutional, I hope someone challenges it?

It can't be ruled unconstitutional as it is not a government agency that is doing it. You either agree to being scanned or you aren't admitted. As a business they have the right to refuse service to anyone as long as it's not based on race, color or national origin.

Boycott Disney World.

Its not difficult, and if your children don't understand tell them that by entering the magic kingdom the family is being treated as criminals.

Just read some more on it and apparently this is old news, very old.

Also seems it isn't finger prints but finger length that it measures and then assigns a number to your ticket. Says it gets an approximation and that the number isn't completely unique...
