Democrats and private jets

[RP170]

Obama just put user fees in the budget. Nice.

As in, every corporate jet will be paying a fee for every flight? If true, say goodbye to GA and the fracs.

I don't see anything that specifically points to user fees only an upgrade in the ATC system (which may imply user fees down the line) Now I can't imagine this link is for the entire budget for the department of transport probably only a summary. I can't seem to find the entire budget, I have a hard time believing that the "New Era of Responsibility" is only 140 pages. So I wouldn't put it past our lawmakers to slip something into the bill. BTW I find it interesting that the Earmarks that than Senator Obama pushed for are still in the budget but the executive branch has removed his name from them. So much for transparency.

My disgust with OneBigAssMistake,America, is quickly turning into hate. I finally land a job I can be proud of and now this prick along with all the other dumbs are gonna sink it faster than the titanic. Anybody have a shoe I can throw!

No doubt, that is some funny sh*t, but I think this is funnier.

Here is a recent article from AOPA on it:

R170 you beat me to it I was just about to post that article. So much for that but, according to the article these have been slipped in many yearly budgets' but not adopted. Looks like we have a good ally in Sen. Obestar. Time to start writing more letters I guess.

Nope.

Can't be true...

I was told on this board by Obama supporters that one of the reasons Bush sucks and I should support obama was that Bush was going to give us user fees. Th Annointed One would never do this.

Gerry,

Not even close to being as funny. Really not funny at all, IMO.

 

[GerryG]

Well Brother, there is no accounting for taste

More from the party of the people. I particularly like how the congressional aide called this story a joke. It's time to elect 535 new members of congress.

All part of the cycle. We'll see a sea of Red in about 2 yrs, when all of these lying, worthless, scum called liberals get booted out. They'll have to get in bread lines like everyone else. It'll be ironic...it'll be their ridiculous commie policies that will put us in the lines, then they'll be in them.

All I can do when I think about these clowns is just put my face in my hands and shake my head in disgust.
