bhahahaha! you have to be kidding me
The FAA inspectors union (PASS) deliberately manipulated Mr. Oberstar during the aviaition safety hearings this week. Mr. Oberstar is unwittingly responsible, in large part, for the chaos in the airline industry. By backing FAA management against the wall, he enabled this misguided emplyees union to inflict unbelievable damage to the airline industry...all over a very insignificant safety issue. If Oberstar was not manipulated, then he was complicit...even more disgusting.
Mr. Oberstar, As one of your constituants and know that you are a supporter of the 2nd amendment we need you to be very outspoken against congressman Rush of Ill's. h45 bill. This bill is completely out of line concerning the 2nd amendment. Thak you.
