Don't worry, I'm from Homeland Security.

Now stay calm, lie flat on your back, and do whatever I tell you.

A high-ranking Department of Homeland Security official was just arrested in an underage sex sting operation. Pretty poor judgment there, Deputy Secretary Doyle.

On March 12, Doyle attempted to contact a 14-year-old girl whose profile was posted on the Internet and initiated a sexually explicit conversation. The "girl" was actually an undercover Polk County detective, the statement said.

"There is no question that Doyle believed that he was having these disgusting, obscene discussions, on-line and on the phone, with a young girl," Judd said. "What stands out to me the most in this particular case was the fact that Brian, on his first conversation with our undercover detective, who he believed to be a 14-year-old girl, clearly identified himself as a deputy press secretary for Homeland Security."

"If he would provide that kind of information to include a photograph of himself with his identification tags, who else may he be talking to around the world who he thinks to be a 14-year-old girl?" Judd said.

Criminy. The article says DHS expects to put him on administrative leave today, but I suspect his days of securing the homeland are pretty well over.
