Here We Go Again, Flight Diverted To Jacksonville, Is There A No-Fly List Passenger On Board? UPDATED: False Alarm

I told everyone weeks ago that there is blood in the water concerning America's vulnerability to terrorists and at this very moment, news is dribbling in about a flight that originated in Newark headed to Bogota, Columbia that has had to be diverted to the Jacksonville, Florida airport because a passenger's name matches that of a name on the No-Fly list.

Good grief. How in the world is an airliner two hours or so into it's flight plan and THEN someone decides to check the list of passengers?!!!

Oh yeah baby....Janet Napolitano...she's the best ain't she? Quite an operation at DHS you got going there Janet.

I'm guessing this is going to turn out to be a false alarm but who knows with the keystone kops we have running our national security right now. Here's the story from the LA Times.

UPDATE:

Okay, I just heard on local news that this scare IS a false alarm. The name didn't actually match that on the No Fly list. Boy, that makes you feel better doesn't it? Oh wait, if the names don't match, then why was the plane diverted?
