This was the first time I realized the news was fake (biased). They so much wanted some/any air disaster blood on his hands that they were gleefully predicting it hourly.

Cousin of my wife was an air traffic controller in the Viet Nam war. He was a scab.
Started working for the FAA in the late 70's. When the union decided to strike, he crossed the picket lines.
With his new seniority, he transferred to Maui.
Was part of the team that brought 243 down.

When I saw you had posted I couldn’t wait to see what you would say about the president that instituted economic policies that did the most for this country.

Can we follow the example and have a mass firing of River Pilots?

And how was the Reagan administration responsible for this terrorist attack? US Marines were in Beirut during Nixon/Ford/Carter administrations. Serious question.

Of course a drunken bum like Peej admires a hypocrite like Ron Reagan.

Some thought Reagan was a light weight noodle head.
Turns out they were very, very wrong.
Greatest President of my lifetime.
