no kennedies on my plane, please

ted kennedy was somehow added to the new "no fly" list kept for potential terrorists. the hilarity of this situation aside, i'm frightened. first, i didn't really know that such a list existed. second, how can such an egregious error be made? if they're putting senators on it by mistake, how many other soccer moms, dentists, and sixth-graders are on it? i hope this doesn’t happen to me, i don't exactly pull the same clout as teddy to get it straightened out so quickly.
