Ask Alito what he's going to do about 80,000 Americans' 'no fly' list
I heard some 80,000 americans are on this list. We thought we had straightened it out, we were told we would be taken off the list...and found out we were still on it.

Bushies always claim incompetency when the heat is on...they lie to your face beause they know they're abusing us with this bullying tactic.

WTF, Demators...people are losing their flights and vacations because of this abuse.

3. It's probably over 100,000 by now.
Can you imagine? And anyone with the same name gets the same intial treatment.

Of course, they still have tons of untranslated actual tapes of suspected Al Qaeda members talking on phones, but hey, they have things to do!

5. Nothing, unless it comes before him as a case.
The SCOTUS does not issue orders on any issue. They have to have a specific case in front of them.

6. One of my co-workers is on the no-fly list.
The odd part? He's an air traffic controller. He passed the FBI investigation necessary to get a secret security clearance and he controls airplanes, but he's not allowed to fly.

7. Ask him who's taxes will get raised to pay welfare for the million
more poor babies born into poverty....and then their children? No one seems to address this problem if they overturn Roe vs. Wade?
