So, we now have absolute proof of what we already knew thanks to the slot swap- Ray LaHood and the DOT are hacks and are for sale. Orders trump principle at the DOT.

The best part is they did everything SWA would've wanted them to do and when that wasn't fast enough SWA bought AirTran and LaHood and gang were left holding a bag of pooh that won't stand up in court.

I hope he's forced out at some point or an inspector general gets an investigation going that gets him to resign like that ambassador to Luxembourg who was so awful that State Department workers were requesting transfers to Iraq and Afghanistan.... FROM LUXEMBOURG.
