TSA Out of Control

Someone at BrasscheckTV.com has put together a collection of news videos–and one rather shocking one from the Dr. Phil show–that show examples of some pretty egregious behavior by TSA screeners. The video calls for the firing of TSA Administrator John Pistole and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.

Brought together in one place, it’s pretty stunning stuff.

I’m adding some Lewis Black-styled commentary (minus the comedy) from a WPIX 11 news commentator who goes by the name of “Lionel,” who tells how his wife was groped after refusing to go into one of those nude-photo body scanners at the JetBlue terminal at the Tampa, Fla., airport.
