A little bit weird, a little bit political with a lot of humor.
Targeting the left has gone too far now!

I think the hunt for terrorists is getting a little too partisan now. I mean, I support going after terrorists, but if you go after everyone who holds a dissenting view under increased scrutiny, well, then things are just going to start turning to anarchy. And the first step in this slow decent into madness occurred a few weeks ago when Ted Kennedy became a suspected terrorist in the eyes the Department of Homeland Security.

Who would have thought that Ted Kennedy of all people was a suspected terrorist. I never would have thought it was possible that a member of the US Legislative Branch could also be someone who would be a threat to others and the country if allowed to board a plane anywhere in the country. They considered him such a threat that he merited inclusion on the Department of Homeland Security's "No Fly List". 

I know he's had some problems with motorized vehicles in the past, but come on, its not like he is going to be flying the damn thing. And its true, his bloated head looks big enough for self-sustained flight, but its not. He needs to take the same planes everyone else does, and by branding him a suspected terrorist, well, you are impeding his ability to... sow dissent against the current president and administration. Oh my god... what a Machiavellian plan. 

Bill Clinton... watch out... they're coming for you next.  Its going to be like the settling of scores at the end of the Godfather.

  This is wonderful satire! I suspect Kerry will be next. Puts me in mind of Nixon's Enemy List. But in all fairness Ridge did apologize to Kennedy.

I know, I know... it just seemed really odd that it was Ted Kennedy of all people... but to be fair, if Pat Buchanan had this problem, I would have had something to say about it too.
