Hide and Seek

(March 17) -- Government investigators conducting undercover tests at 21 U.S.airports were able to get bomb materials through screening machines at all of them, ABC News has learned.

Investigators were able to get components for improvised explosive devices through airport security, but the Transportation Security Administration called the study "highly implausible."

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) was created in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 as part of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act signed into law by President George W. Bush on November 19, 2001.



TSA director Kip Hawley stated to reporters that although this might look bad, there was some good news to report. “Almost every passenger trying to get a loose joint through the metal detectors was busted and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”

He went on to say that many airline passengers were pleased with the screening process. Chuck Smith of Okeedokie MN said, "I am so glad we are taking the fight to the terrorists!" In addition, Kip Hawley provided rare photographic proof that many passengers actually enjoy the screening procedure. He pointed out in this TSA photo, "This woman is very obviously experiencing an orgasm as a result of her pat down."
