It looks like we're not the only ones who think baby Bush's 3,000+
square mile TFRs are too big:

PENNSYLVANIA LAWMAKERS CALL FOR SMALLER TFRs
Remember that poor pipeline patrol pilot who unwittingly flew over
the presidential motorcade in Philadelphia earlier this year? The
Pennsylvania legislature certainly does. AOPA President Phil Boyer
was the honored guest of state Rep. Gene McGill, an AOPA member, as
the House of Representatives on Monday passed, by a near-unanimous
vote, a resolution that calls on federal security officials to reduce
the size of temporary flight restrictions (TFRs) resulting from
presidential travel. The four-page resolution asks for authorities to
"reconsider the need to issue such restrictions based on nonspecific
threats and ways to improve the timely dissemination of flight
restriction information to pilots." The resolution will be sent to
key federal government officials. See AOPA Online

The prezdint is coming to Portsmouth and Manchester NH this week, and
AOPA reminds us that in such cases he is usually accompanied by a
60-mile TFR.

Right. Baby Bush inflicts a 60 nm diameter no-fly-zone on the NAS
wherever he goes in this country. They call it a 30 nm TFR, but it's
really 2,826 nautical miles square, or 3,291 statute miles square!

All he has to do to defeat the Democrats next year is to be near their
convention site during its duration; air transportation will be
halted.
