I wish someone could tell us if they are give particular attention to certain passengers or if everyone is going thru the same routine.

Do they need to employee new screeners? Are these people not doing their jobs?

Is the news media asking these questions? There really should be an explaination as to why the inspections weren't done properly the first time. We have no control over what happens in other nations, so I have no problem with the extra screening which occurred last night. But this is goofy. If our baggage screeners were doing their jobs properly, a second screening shouldn't be necessary.

Makes me wonder if they are playing games with the departure schedule for some other reason.

1) What makes you think YOU deserve an explaination. I for one dont want our strategies communicated to the enemy.

2) Who said the screeners did anything wrong? Why so quick to attack those who are working their tales off to protect your sorry ass. From what I read earlier some of the chatter referred to specific flights, specific airlines, and specific routes and what Homeland Security appears to be doing is using fighters to escort flights they are concerned about to Dulles Airport where they are rescreened before the flights are allowed to continue cross country to Las Vegas or Los Angeles, etc.
