MSNBC places the blame er credit

MSNBC says who did it. 5 TSA workers put on leave over online posting

"As a result, some Web sites, using widely available software, were able to uncover the original text of sections that had been blacked out for security reasons. On Sunday, the Wandering Aramean blog pointed out the document in a posting titled "The TSA makes another stupid move."

TSA had the document removed from the Federal Business Opportunity site on Dec. 6 but copies — with the redacted portions exposed — circulated on the Internet and remain posted on other Web sites not controlled by the government."

Prepare for return to obscurity. Begin countdown timer. Your 15 min of fame will expire in: 14:59, 14:58, . . .

add: MSNBC has a poll about TSA. Assume MSNBC readers are a more average cross section of the flying public than FTs. They are starting to get it. Overwhelming majority answer: "No. Airport security is a joke, and I don't feel secure."
