You're really a pro writer...........in disquise! Right?

Good post,
Karl

Thanks, but no. Having to write for a job would take all the fun out of
it. I think it would destroy what little is left of my imagination.

Somebody really hates GA.

When I read the article it didn't sound at all like someone who hates
General Aviation. It sounded like a standard CNN attack on business.
("globe trotting corporate executive")

I wasn't sure if I was reading CNN or the Worker's World Daily. No
that there is that much difference any more.

Don't you just love revolutionary rhetoric? And yet CNN is using it more
and more. I expect to hear "running dogs of capitalism" any day now.

I can see it now:

"Once again we see that globe-trotting corporate bandits and their lackey
pilots are stealing bread from the mouths of the oppressed masses of air
travelers. The running dogs of capitalism must be brought to heel. For an
unbiased report, we turn to Comrade Barbara Boxer, who has joined CNN
after retiring from the oppressive establishment patriarchy. Comrade
Boxer, can the entrenched pigs at Congress do anything to stop this theft,
or are they too corrupt to do anything about even this?"

"I am sad to say that Congress and the Administration are still controlled
by capitalist gangsters, Comrade Anderson Cooper. But of course, you know
this, being a part of the white male oppressive patriarchy, not to mention
a deluded religious fanatic ever since your conversion to Islam. And what
are these so-called 'general aviation' planes doing? Hauling their fat cat
bosses around in unparalleled luxury as they flit from one smoke-filled
room to another, planning their next nefarious assault on the poor working
slaves of the world."

"What about Comrade Gore? Doesn't he also fly a private jet?"

"Of course not. Comrade Gore's jet belongs to the people, as does our
beloved Gore. Therefore they gratefully support his travels in his
never-ending fight against capitalist gangsters by using the pigs' own
tools against them."

"Thank you, Comrade Boxer. Now, for an alternate point of view, we have
Comrade Patty Murray, a Senator from the State of Washington. Tell us how
your views differ from those of Comrade Boxer, Comrade Murray."

"Comrade Boxer is a Trotskyite revisionist pig, but otherwise she is right
on target with this one, Brother."

"And so, despite overwhelming unanimity that the captalist bosses and
their corporate tools should no longer be allowed to use the airways for
free, President Clinton refuses to budge from the promise made by her
corrupt husband when he was President -- that there will be no user fees
for these robber barons or their lackeys."
