Wasn't it money (or airlines losing it) that "cleared" up all of the Icelandic volcanic ash?

Message sent...all should do the same. Get friends and family members to send msg's as well. We move their opinions, or we move them out of the WH=democracy.

I had some hope that Obama would change the status quo of politics bowing to big business...naive, I guess. No rest rules. No NMB relief. No change. "Hope and stuff..."

The name for the Obama political strategy: Hope-a-Dope

Look how quick this 3 hour tarmac rule came out....but they are ok with those pilots in the cockpit sitting on the tarmac for 3 hours and being on duty for up to 16 hours a day. Personally, I can't wait to make that announcement and go back to the gate..."this is what you folks wanted...."
