 Because the things they are being asked to do are stupid, arbitrary, and make no difference to our security.  And if we happen to be wrong and they do make a difference, no one bothers to say how.
Worse yet, TSA lies about its own rules.  Awhile back the WP published an interview with the TSA spokesperson who said, repeatedly, that passengers did not have to take off their shoes in the security line.  Of course she didn't say that not doing so would subject you to secondary screening, meaing, yes, you do have to take your shoes off.  Instead of fessing up to getting blowjobs from interns, TSA insisted that it had no sexual relations with that woman.  This type of cutesy bullshit does nothing but undermine their credibility.
All TSA has to do is adopt rules that they can justify, and then actually tell people what the justifications are, and there would be a lot less bitching about compliance.
