Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul?s press secretary Moira Bagley tweeted on Monday that Transportation Security Administration officials were detaining her boss in Nashville, Tenn.

?Just got a call from @senrandpaul,? Bagley tweeted at about 10 a.m. on Monday. ?He?s currently being detained by TSA in Nashville.?

Texas Congressman and current Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul ? Sen. Rand Paul?s father ? placed a post on Facebook about the news as well. ?My son Rand is currently being detained by the TSA at the Nashville Airport,? Ron Paul posted. ?I?ll share more details as the situation unfolds.?

Ron Paul adds, via Twitter, that the TSA detained his son ?for refusing full body pat-down after anomaly in body scanner.?

Sen. Rand Paul?s Facebook page has a post about the incident too. ?Senator Paul is being detained at the Nashville Airport by the TSA,? Sen. Rand Paul?s Facebook post reads. ?We will update you as the situation develops.?

Sen. Rand Paul?s chief of staff Doug Stafford told The Daily Caller the Senator ?was detained by the TSA after their scanner had an ?anomaly? on the first scan.?

?He offered to go through again,? Stafford said in an email. ?The TSA said he could only have a full body pat down. He would not consent to it. He offered to go through the scanner again. The situation is ongoing.?

Sen. Rand Paul has previously referred to the TSA?s use of full body pat downs as the ?universality of insult,? and he called on the agency to end the tactic.

?I think you ought to get rid of the random pat-downs,? Sen. Rand Paul said in June 2011. ?The American public is unhappy with them, they?re unhappy with the invasiveness of them.?

Spokespeople for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the TSA, have not returned requests for comment.

So the TSA thinks that a United States Senator might be a potential terrorist.  The fucking ass hats are totally out of control!

Wouldn't it be nice if he had a traveling company of loyal "minstrels" to keep such pests away? And how many times do you have to use the word "situation" in an article?

Ron Paul has tweeted about the incident. He said that there had been an ?anomaly? with a body scanner.

?I spoke with him five minutes ago and he was being detained indefinitely,? Rand Paul spokesperson Moira Bagley said, according to Politico. ?The image scan went off, he refused patdown.?

Sound familiar boys and girls?

The Senate is back in session today at 2 p.m., with votes scheduled at 4:30 p.m.

I have always understood that there are laws in place that prevent senators and representatives from being detained when they are in route to a session.

Pray... that the proper message is sent on Nov. 6th... lest the method of delivery of said message be forced into a different format.

I think its fair to say that Rand is definitely a terrorist, and at any time is going to kill a lot of people with his terrorist plot.   [img]http://www.arrse.co.uk/at

They should have given him a full cavity search with a shovel just to be sure he wasn't hiding any explosives up there, I mean you can never be too sure.

Edit:  The TSA needs to be disbanded immediately.

I don't think they'll start to execute senators or congressmen right on the spot just yet.  LOL
