Another Thing That Seems To Only Happen To Democratic Lawmakers

Appearing on no-fly lists.

A California congresswoman said she was briefly denied access to a United Airlines flight last week because her name appeared on a "no fly list" set up after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Rep. Loretta Sanchez, a Democrat who has been a critic of the no-fly list, said her staff had booked her a one-way ticket from Boise, Idaho, to Cincinnati through Denver. But they were prevented from printing her boarding pass online and at an airport kiosk.


Well there you go, that's reason enough to be on the no-fly list. After all, she CRITICIZED it. By the way, Ted Kennedy found his way onto the no-fly list a couple years ago. In case anyone wants to explain this away by saying Loretta Sanchez' name was similar to a terrorist or something.
