Dead on with your post.O'reilly has never labeled him self as conservative. The pilots are idiots for sitting there for EIGHT hours. I hear that when they finally taxied to the gate the captain was whining on the PA about possibly losing his job for letting the people off for food, water and facilities.
If you are willing to sit yourself, not to mention a plane load of people, on a tarmac for EIGHT hours because you will not exercise some authority against some ground operations jackbone, you should be flying cargo thru the wee hours. After all, cargo does not bitch, eat, piss, sh1t, or have crying babies.
You cant wait for permission from the Chief Pilot or even the CEO when things like this come up. Piss poor guys. No wonder there is a "travelers bill of rights" on the horizon. Some guys just cant think outside the manual. Probably prior training.
