Republican administration: Ted Kennedy = terrorist

Okay, the first time is funny, but Ted Kennedy has been stopped FIVE TIMES for being on the no-fly list. This is ridiculous. If the Republicans wanted to further antagonize old-school Dems, this is the way to do it. I'm not even a huge fan of his, but there is no excuse for him being on the no-fly list.

Kennedy's description of his air travel troubles -- mentioned during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday on the 9/11 panel's recommendations -- gave new life to questions about the quality and effectiveness of the no-fly list. Security, intelligence and law enforcement agencies established the list after the 2001 terrorist attacks. Critics said the senator's experience served as the latest example of how a system designed to improve security is instead targeting innocent travelers.
