"I want to thank Mayor Daley for tearing down his airport."

If Boyer had been watching the "hen house (Meigs)" it probably still would
be open. Instead he is responding to inane statements like this.

This is the exact reason the AOPA is useless, for the most part, in regards
to GA.

Well, they even appended it to the AOPA article:
UPDATE: Phil Boyer received a faxed letter today (January 13, 2005)
from Malkas. In his response Malkas told Boyer: "I'm sorry you
misunderstood the intention of my comments regarding the closing of
Meigs Field. ...The comments were meant to be sarcastic to Mayor
Daley's action." On the basis of emails to AOPA since the newspaper
story was published, members found Malkas' comments clear... and
inexcusable. "We all know the media can twist someone's words," Boyer
warned. "You never say something like that, not after what we've all
been through. Even if uttered in jest, that quote was way out of line."
