Here is more on the story being broken by SSAF on its website and here on FReeRepublic.
ENTIRE STORY WITH PICTURES HERE.
Airport workers, vendors and suppliers have to be checked just as vigorously as passengers. The same rules must apply, but they dont! The companies that supply food and snacks for all airlines have a very open door policy and are charged to comply with background and security checks of personnel and vehicles that have open access to the airfield. In checking the off airport offices and warehouses of these food supply companies it has come to SSAFs attention that their security is non-existent. Vehicles are left unattended with access to all, no fencing around their buildings whatsoever. It is an open invitation to the terrorist who hates this nation and wishes to gain easy access to our nations airports.

That is a problem. The TSA is doing a good job in some ares, but it is the weakest links that is going to cause the problem. One of these weakest links is the food supplier industry.

Well, AlBore WAS detained twice....

It sounds as if the "let it rip" strategy isn't working so well.

In general, with family members (Military included) flying all over the US continent and outlying Islands, the only thing that has changed is the attitude of kindergarten educated airport security who now think they have the powers of a god.
And in some sick sense they do, for if they are given any lip, all they have to do is press that little red button on their hand held and every stupid SOB in that area will show up, regardless of severity or lack thereof.
What would you label it?
With the Intelligence Quotient of 99% of these people less than that of a doorknob, they actually have the capacity to be more dangerous to the flying public (what will become of it) than the terrorists they proclaim to protect us from.
How about a few heart attacks here and there from the over-reactions of these loons?
The Federal program is a sham, the vast majority of these security boys and girls don't have a clue, and the airlines are going to "splash" under the current dominatrix-style mental subjugation of the airports systems by the vote sucking Congress.
This Congressional make-up is sickening and dare I say...DANGEROUS, for they no longer give a sh*t about the real welfare of this country.
By the way, saw some of your stuff on the HillClinton pages...Doin' a little HTML Touch 'n Go..?

Yeah. but perfect.

This is not news. My understanding is that lack of security in the food-service chain was the reason most airlines discontinued serving meals except on the longest flights.
What am I missing here? I don't fly much but I distinctly remember such stories immediately post 9/11.

I think the news is that in some places the problem has not been solved.
