Let me ask you EWR73FO, do you think that JH's appeal for release wasn't a "well thought out and realistic attempt to positively influence a prompt resolution"?

This is pure doublespeak and the closest thing to a golden parachute that a Unionist who hasn't been offered a juicy enough management job (yet) can sew together.

My thoughts? A one word communiqué would have suficed. "ABSOLUTELY!"

P.S.
I don't care how far it is from Guam to Houston, we should have heard "Absolutely" much earlier in the week.
