    In recent undercover tests of multiple airport security checkpoints by the Department of Homeland Security, inspectors said screeners,

    their equipment or their procedures failed more than half the time, according to a source familiar with the classified report.

    When ABC News asked the source if the failure rate was 80 percent, the response was, "You are in the ballpark."

    In a public hearing after a private classified briefing to the House Committee on Homeland Security, members of Congress called the failures by the Transportation Security Administration disturbing.


    Rep. Mike Rogers went as far as to tell TSA Administrator David Pekoske, "This agency that you run is broken badly, and it needs your attention."

    Inspectors "identified vulnerabilities with TSA's screener performance, screening equipment and associated procedures," according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security.

    The statement added that the findings remain classified but that eight recommendations have been made to the TSA to improve checkpoint security. It is not clear what those recommendations are.

    TSA/DHS are Repug creations of bureaucracy and regulations, and MISgoverned, as expected.

    OBL is laughing in Muslim heaven, ing all those virgins.

    a pleasing coincidence, and true in both senses of "TSA"
