Professor: Bashing Bush Got Me on Watch List; Suggests NSA Might Have Taken Him Off

On Monday, Professor Mark Graber, a contributor to the Balkin legal blog, posted a first person account from Professor Walter F. Murphy, a distinguished emeritus Princeton professor of Constitutional law, who was initially denied a boarding pass when trying to fly in March and was told by an airline employee that he was likely on a Transportation Security Administration watch list due to having criticized the administration.

6. digital recording devices can record hours of discussion

with todays cheap memory. Keep one in your pocket.

[unblock]

7. just as a side note, he was was never a "princeton professor of constitutional law"

that is, he was always a professor in the politics department. he was a constitutional law scholar, in the sense that he studied constitutional law. he held an endowed chair called the mccormick professor of jurisprudence.

princeton university does not have a law school.

8. princeton university does not have a law school?

:grr: damn you and your facts :rofl:


He was a professor in the Political Science Department with a specialty
in Constitutional Law.

[Disturbed]

9. Does this mean that he can no longer use any airlines?

Is he banned from all of them?

[Botany]

10. No he can fly but they lose his bags and hassle him.

I think my dad will see him tomorrow .... they are old friends.

God do I hate this bunch of shits squatting in the White House.

[whistle]

11. Yep, everybody knows that Princeton Professors are terrorists

...and just because he is 70+ years old doesn't mean he is not ready to blow himself and everyone on the airplane to pieces so he can enter paradise and have his own set of 100 virgins. And, if he is a liberal then for sure he is an anarchist and that would make him ten times more dangerous. Strip search and wand him naked

:sarcasm: :wtf:

[Botany]

12. Sadly he is not a true liberal

He is also a retired Col. from the marines.
