Run In With Mr. Edwards

Your points are well taken but if AOPA and other lobbying groups hope to
limit product liability any further for GA, a democrat, in general, and a
"trial" lawyer, in particular, are not likely to be proponents of product
liability reform. As for Mueller Airport, I'm not sure that Bush could have
or should have had a role in preventing its closure, for whatever reason it
closed. I'm not so sure that restraint on TFRs is practiced with GA in mind,
as
opposed to heavy/commercial.

How in heavens name would a GA pilot vote for Edwards, a personal injury
lawyer who's inclined to sue General Aviation out of existence? He's
already attempted to sue Obstetricians into oblivion so that pregnant
moms
sometimes have to fly to the nearest available OB\GYN willing to
deliver
their babies! And can you tell me that John F'n Ketchup won't regulate
or
tax GA to death?

Do you have grounds for this? Or is a just a rant? It's fine with me
if you want to rant, I just want to distinguish it, that's all.

I've been following multiple news sources and here's what I've seen on
the candidates and GA: Nothing on Edwards feelings for GA one way or
the other. But, might have missed something.

Kerry's an active GA pilot and would be expected to have some
understanding of the issues facing GA. Neither Kerry or Edwards has
asked for TFRs when campaigning, that might mean they're GA-friendly.

Bush is an inactive pilot and in TX showed no interest one way or the
other in GA. He let Mueller airport in Austin close without comment.
Since then there's a lack of a good GA airport in central TX.

Cheney's not a pilot and doesn't seem to have a concern about GA
either way from what I see. Both he and Bush have those fun TFRs
following them around the country. And both apparently support the
Wash. DC ADIZ.

From the scant evidence I see KE may be a little more in favor of GA
than BC are. But, frankly GA isn't showing up on either party's
radar.
