Washington Times: Congress ponders: OPM data breach could total 32 million Americans
As many as 32 million Americans might have had their most sensitive data stolen in a breach of the federal government's human resources agency computers, lawmakers speculated Wednesday as pressure grew on President Obama to oust the woman who heads the agency that botched its cybersecurity.
Katherine Archuleta, director of the Office of Personnel Management, fought for her job, telling the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that she, herself, is likely a victim of the breach and takes it seriously.
But her uneven performance, which often included reading rote responses from prepared notes rather than answering direct questions, didn’t sit well with key lawmakers, who called for a housecleaning at the agency.

WNU Editor: This scandal just keeps on growing. The Director for OPM is definitely not suited for this job. The following CNN report makes me wonder if she is "clueless" on what is happening .... or worse .... deliberately misleading the Congressional Oversight Committee that even the FBI is now contradicting her .... U.S. government hacking number sparks unusual drama at Senate briefing (CNN).
