Dammit! Why are we getting all these incoherent posts? Kelley can't give a straight account of his phone conversation with this person and now we have someone who is either logically challenged or he's trying to spin the story. If she MISINTERPRETED it then IT WASN'T TRUE, it's very simple. Furthermore any idiot can understand that "flagged" was used in the context of profiling or political blacklisting, not in the sense of more or less impersonal security criteria.
