It turned out that Kennedy was on the Transportation Security Administration's "watch list" of suspicious people who might be linked to terrorism.

Kennedy, relating the story to his colleagues and members of the bipartisan 9/11 Commission this past week, asked, "How in the world are average Americans going to be treated if they get on that list?"

There were some jokes about "Irish terrorist" and Republican vengeance against a liberal icon, but nobody had an acceptable answer.

Is the war on terrorism really martial law?

Well good ole Teddy does have some history with people dying around him etc....and he looks like he's had enuf booze in him to be flammable..... :D

Could you imagine how po'ed he must have been.
