Heh
Error Puts Kennedy on Airline No-Fly ListWASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate Judiciary Committee heard this morning from one of its own about some of the problems with airline "no fly" watch lists. Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., says he had a close encounter with the lists when trying to take the U.S. Airways shuttle out of Washington to Boston. The ticket agent wouldn't let him on the plane. His name was on the list in error.
Of course it was an error, Teddy's name was meant to be on the NO DRIVE list.

Who says it "was an error"? Ted Kennedy, I bet.
Heh, is right.

With all the crap Teddy takes, this sounds like another joke at his expense.

Maybe it was supposed to be JFK Jr. on the "no fly" list...

Don't you just hate when the government interferes with your weekend bender? Poor Teddy.
Though he probably arranged for his name to appear on the list to get some publicity and take the spotlight off his alter ego, John F. Kerry.

I did a trackback to this post from my blog, and later realized that I made the same "No-Drive List" joke. I must not have seen the bottom of this post. D'oh! My bad.

No biggie Johnny I almost did not type it because it was SOOOO obvious. You would have come up with it without me I'm sure.

Hmmm… I wonder if Teddy’s people somehow put his name on the list so he can make a big stink out of it??

Ken that is doubtful. He has been fighting the battle for a few months that it took to get his name off the list. He never said a word.
I'm one of the biggest Teddy detractors out there, but inexplicably, he played this one straight.

He should be on everyone's NO list. I grew up with this man in my house, his family in my house and still, to this day, I absolutely hate him.
But obviously, that is nothing new.
