lots of congresscritters whining about alert systems that didn't work, conflicting orders given by LE etc.

At least they had an incident that exposed the flaws and at the same time did not do any real harm.

Mark my words. Now that this guy has figured out congressional security weaknesses, Cavuto will want to hire him -- just like he wanted to hire Heatwole for planting box cutters on aircraft.

GAH! I do lunch with a friend & come back to this...and then find out it was a toy gun.

You can bet these two have got a lot of 'splainin' to do to people with badges with no senses of humor.

I think what they know is that they would have been able to get a weapon into the building, under the system that has existed until now.

This will be Bush's fault of course.

Don't leave out Tom Ridge. I'm sure they'll blame him, too.

Now they're saying it's "two staff members" with Halloween costumes.

Obviously they got a secretary and a page to say it was all their fault so the bad guys don't get anymore ideas.

Somewhere far away a couple of evil-doers are being grilled.
