That's why its always "Washington National" and not ronald reagan.
 
YeOldeProp.......I agree 100%. One of the best posts I've seen here! I have been saying this for years. You want change, you'll need to change Congress first. Some of them have been serving Bullsh!t for 30 or 40 years while a member of the House or Senate and people keep voting for them.
 
Yes it was just wonderful to be an American under Reagan just ask any air traffic controller.

I still feel sorry for those guys, but then, what part of "prohibited from strike by federal law" did they not understand? Their union over-reached, and got b*tch-slapped for it. We get ourselves into big trouble every time we choose to set aside our own laws. The Gipper actually had the cajones to enforce the law, despite the consequences.
 
and the worst part is that fellow airline pilots who consider themselves rational educated people actually voted for this.

Cant wait for some "stupid bush" comment like i hear from my mother in law daily


Read my signature. He earned it.

Yours is also a great post. It's obvious that the system of immediately trying to get re-elected corrupts most of them in short order. How about this: term limits, ONE TERM MAX. Then we'll see who's on the people's side!
 
Ever wonder what things would be like if the current people trying to "redesign our country" were put in charge of redesigning airplanes? Here's how it might go:

Socialist: "It's not fair that Boeings get to hold more fuel than Bombardiers. Effective immediately, all Boeings will be limited to holding no more than 20,000 lbs of fuel."

Capitalist: "But then Boeings would have to fly shorter distances, or carry fewer people."

Socialist: "20,000 lbs of fuel is plenty. They don't need more to fly. They'll be just fine without the extra. In fact, all extra fuel that would have been put on Boeings will be put on the RJs, just to make it fair."

Capitalist: "But then the RJs will be wasteful and inefficient, if you just load them up with free fuel."

Socialist: "It's called shared sacrifice. We're all in this together."

I love this "change you can believe in." Definitely would work out better.


What?
