Democratic Congresswoman ends up on no-fly list.
This is not the first instance of a Democratic politician ending up on the no-fly list. Senator Ted Kennedy ended up on the no-fly list about two years ago. And heaven help any man named David Nelson, including Ozzie and Harriet's son.
To be fair, Representative Don Young of Alaska (a Republican) got stopped by the TSA as well.
But isn't it funny that critics of the Bush Crime Family's policies end up on the No-Fly List more often than Republicans? And the presence of people with common names on the list shows that it's useless - the false positives show that it's not sensitive enough to not only screen out the innocent, but also catch the suspicious.
