Citing an increased fear of being attacked, the Department of Homeland Security announced today an unprecedented ban on clothing for all airline passengers traveling to or within the United States.

"From now on, no clothing of any kind will be allowed," Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff told reporters in a press conference today. "I repeat, this ban is on all forms of clothing, from hats to gloves to baby diapers. There will be no exceptions made on this, no matter how obese or deformed the passenger.

Whoops!! now whats that? travel nude on an airplane!! But why?
This is why:

...."This permanent clothing ban will finally make airline travel completely safe from terrorists," Chertoff said. ....... The simple fact of the matter is, when a terrorist is buck naked, they have nothing to hide, and nowhere to hide it."

Aah!! genius!!!
