This woman on 60 Minutes looks like a complete fool
trying to explain some of the unexplainable as to why some people are targeted by the FBI on the "no fly" lists....

5. Robert Johnson is protected because he made a deal with the Devil
He's probably Satans official guitar player right now in Hells best music venue.

7. Here on the West Coast
...2 and 1/2 hours till 60 mins comes on...

But working for the airlines, I can tell ya that there's no rhyme or reason for the No Fly list, which is probably why the toolette cannot explain it.

And God help you if your name is on that list! TSA puts out a form that tells you how to clear yourself off the list--but the procedure makes it WORSE the next time you fly! Typical Bushco stupidity and paranoia.

9. That segment could spur a new $billion industry ... legal name-changing service.
The total cluelessness did it for me.

13. It is odd how some simple names are and some aren't.
Margaret is a target. They say you take out the vowels and it leaves a foreign name. But if you have Anthony it is not. Go figure.

16. I saw that. She acted like a typical BushCo regime buffoon.





Maybe she was also a horse show judge (like Brownie) before she was appointed to her present position.


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

18. A complete ass for sure
It was noted at the end of the segment that she's since left the FBI for a position in the private sector... Good riddance, but I'd like to know who she went to work for - so I can avoid that company/firm at all costs!

20. My favorite part was that certain known "high risk" terrorists are NOT
on the no-fly list

Why?

Because they might find out they are on it and they don't want them alerted.

and when asked about it

"If the no-fly list is to keep terrorists off the planes and these people (the known high risk terrorists) aren't on the no-fly list, how do you keep them off planes"

The woman said "That is a concern"

LMAO

21. Hey, cut her some slack! Saddam's on the list!
And so are 14 of the 19 9/11 terrorists (I guess the other five can still fly if they want, but I'm sure Our Protectors are working on it). And I once knew a Bob Johnson who was a real jerk.

If you follow the "Six Degrees of Separation" theory, we're ALL linked to terrorists! Even Jim Smith! It's the "Nobody Flies, Nobody Dies" way of dealing with it.

Damn, I feel safer already.

22. Well, Bob Smith is an Al Quada type name.

In all fairness to Cheney's FBI.
