Do you have anything factual to contribute to the discussion?
If you don't stay out of it... But if you really want to play in this sandbox, go look up "writ of mandamus" before you come back... "Larry Dighera" wrote in message ...

So Bush nominated an Attorney General who he was reasonably certain would not indite him or the CIA. |

You implied that Bush et al had committed indictable offenses, but had "put
in" an attorney general who would not indict them. If you believe indictable offenses have occurred, go down to the nearest federal courthouse and get a writ of mandamus to force him to indict.

Gail, I believe that acting FAA Administrator Robert A. Sturgell is a typical pro-big business Bush appointee stooge who could care less about general aviation, the segment that owns and operates 89% of the aircraft in the US, and who will attempt to wrest Congressional budgetary oversight of the FAA out of the hands of the lawmakers to facilitate privatization of US Air Traffic Control, so that large corporate pro-air-carrier interests can wrangle billions of dollars out of the government in their mendacious attempt to put the proverbial "fox" in charge of the "henhouse" without regard for the consequences to all NAS stakeholders. I believe that, because it would be consistent with Bush's past behavior, like overturning Clinton's pronouncement of ATC as an Inherently Governmental Function. Do you know anything about Sturgell? |
