It is a crazy thought in my opinion if he was indeed serious. If you open windows up high, everyone without a pressurized mask becomes incapacitated. If you open windows down low, there is more oxygen for the fire to burn faster. We should all just let the pilots do their jobs and get it on the ground.

Even the Reporter who wrote the original story that went to the Press Pool is surprised that there are people out there who don't realize that he was making a joke.
The Los Angeles Times story that relayed Romney's airplane remark to the world was based off a pool report written by the New York Times's Ashley Parker. When we asked Parker this morning whether it seemed as if Romney made the mark in jest, she left no doubt. "Romney was joking," she e-mailed. Parker told us that while the pool report didn't explicitly indicate that Romney was joking, it was self-evident that he was. "The pool report provided the full transcript of his comments on Ann's plane scare," she said, "and it was clear from the context that he was not being serious."

They rate about the same as Congress with the people, about 13% positive. Just good for a joke.

Actually on a clear day you can see Russia from Alaska, what you seem to be suffering from is a strong bias. That is going to get fixed shortly.
The real joke is on all of us, none of them have done anything at all helpful, but they have managed to set us against each other and that is all that matters when the goal is reelection and a steady status quo. The joke is on anyone who believes anything any of them say.
Sorry you fell for it.
