To keep this response vaguely "on topic"...

You don't think they fail all those GAO, etc oversight checks despite 
getting so much of your tax money without some fairly creative time-
wasting efforts, do you??

  DHS Net-Ops:  Can we spend a few hundred mill on some firewalls?
  DHS Manager:  No -- let's put a several hundred chimps in front of
                PCs and train them to search Google for intel...
