The Washington Times explains another reason why the TSA no-fly list is a stupid idea in Air marshals grounded in list mix-ups.
"False identifications based on a terrorist no-fly list have for years prevented some federal air marshals from boarding flights they are assigned to protect, according to officials with the agency, which is finally taking steps to address the problem."
"Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said this week that one major air carrier reports roughly 9,000 false positive hits on the watch list every day."
