Of course, the TSA needs to divert the attention off their own failures to anything but on those failures.

Bada bing. Here's a good article from Wired on the blogger crackdown by the TSA goon squad.

[Frischling wrote on his blog that he decided to publish the TSA directive to clear up much of the confusion and speculation that was circulating among the public about changes that were being instituted in airport security procedures]

 

Hmmm.  Ya s'pose he might of cleared up a bit of "confusion and speculation" for potential terrorists as well; potential terrorists who already train to game the TSA systems?

 

Would that be a good thing?

{snicker} does TSA Special Agent Enright have to license that hairpiece with the local Humane Society?  What does it eat?

 

It's almost funny they had to go to Wall-Mart to buy a drive to image the laptop with, and then couldn't get it to work.   almost funny.

 

Could it be the Emperor's New Transparent DHS Clothes left them a bit naked and unprepared?

 

And why wasn't the FBI investigating - I thought the whole point of the DHS was to eliminate all that inter-agency rivalry bullshyte?  Guess not.
