I am deeply troubled by recent allegations of contractor malfeasance as it relates to the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) use of backscatter Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT).

I want to say we, the committee, were in possession of information that provided by the intelligence community that pretty much said this was a military style attack within less than 24 hours.

This committee exists solely for the purpose of preventing that from ever happening again.

If you are not able to fire people for stealing under that new contract we are going to have a problem.

In Americans' minds, TSA represents everything wrong about the Federal Government; bloated in bureaucracy.

Michele Bachmann is kind of taking the lead on this particular issue and going through and trying to figure out what they took out of the training materials and what they left in and why did it get changed?

Giving up on TSA without having something better to fill its place is not an option.

Supreme Court justices have no business going through--maybe after the ruling 2 weeks ago, but they have no business going through that.

Letting TSA carry on the way it has for the last 11 years is equally not an option.

You have got Donald Rumsfeld getting patted down at the airport; Henry Kissinger, you know, that is just mind-numbing that that kind of stuff is happening.
