Well, here we go....

Why is no-one willing to call an idiot, an idiot in our society?

Don Lemon. You are an idiot.

What a effing insult

Captain Bligh 03-20-2014 05:16 PM

A panel full of "experts" and not one of them has the testosterone to call this idiot out. Just like the lone gunman that shoots 50 people and not so much as one of the victims is willing to even try to hit the guy with a chair.

He was just trying to outdo Fox from last night. Check out this gem:

Malaysia Airlines jet held by terrorists in Pakistan? | Interviews | Hannity | Fox News

The 24 hour networks have truly lost it on this one. Hannity and Gen. Idiot really did a number with that interview, though I'm pretty sure Lemon outdid them with the black hole bit.

Meagen Kelly had an interview with Senator Saxby Chambliss who said that Boeing had assured him that the XPDR had to be turned off by a human and there was NO WAY that it failed. These people couldn't operate a toaster.
And now the phrase, Zombie Plane, catching on like fire. Dear god I hope they find the flight recorder to end this madness, but I fear that even then, they will claim it was planted:o

Amazing what a so called General will do for few bucks today, no worse than most of the media pundits.

Anyone have the vid of the film actors guild on "Team America"?

I don't have a theory because I don't know enough to have one and I am not a pilot.

The complaints about the newbies posting here isn't that they are "listening", the problem is that they are putting down stakes and making ridiculous pronouncements as to what happened.

You say you are an "experimental psychologist", whatever that is. If you are a psychologist, you, more than we, would understand human behavior. If one of the crew took over and committed "suicide" by running the jet out of gas after disabling/killing everyone else by depressurizing the plane long enough to deplete the onboard oxygen, why? Why fly for hours after taking over the plane instead of pointing it at the deck - as has been done before?

You're the psychologist, if it were terrorism, why has there been no pronouncement by some terrorist group? They live for that crap. Educate us.

Maybe that's not so unreasonable.
I'm convinced that they ran into Captain Vanderdecken and are now doomed to try to round Cape Horn until they can pass the baton to someone else.:rolleyes:

Are we witnessing rapidly progressing dementia in real time?
