they look kinda shifty to me, too: "Observe your tax dollars at work.   Now they're stopping babies from being brought onto plane flights if their names are similar to those of suspected terrorists.  From CNN:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Infants have been stopped from boarding planes at airports throughout the United States because their names are the same as or similar to those of possible terrorists on the government's 'no-fly list.'

Now I can see putting their names on the 'no-cry list,' especially for long flights.   And I can certainly see banning them from movie theaters.   (After all, you can't be too safe.)  But come on, already.   All this chaos and inconvenience from the TSA, and studies show we're no safer than we were on September 10, 2001."
