Makes absolutely no sense whatever to rename that airport after Oprah. That’s crazy, idiotic liberal thought.

Thanks everyone. This is going down in flames, 96% no, 4% yes.

Technically, the name of Nashville’s Airport is Berry Field (hence the BNA). I believe it was named after an early aviator. Orpah has only a “yootful” connection to Nashville 4 decades ago. We have 2 Presidents we could name it for from Middle Tennessee: Andrew Jackson and James K. Polk (unlike the recent media worship of GHW Bush, Polk was probably the greatest one-term President). I wouldn’t be opposed to renaming it Jackson-Polk, but not for some corpulent blowhard, racist, and ultraleftwing talkshow host who made her living in Chicago.

If they really want to name the Nashville airport for a woman, it should be DOLLY PARTON.


I'd be fine with that, but only if the planes take off and land in pairs.

What the hell is wrong with BNA or just Nashville International? If anything, Nashville has to have had at least one real war hero or a . Winfrey is a liberal joke who hates Nashville. She is a Chicago/Obama fan. Even Cash or Parton beat the hell out of her.

The only airport I can think of named for a Black celebrity is New Orleans’ Airport, and that for Louis Armstrong. I think that was well-earned, as Armstrong was a beloved figure (who ever had a bad word about him ?) and an Ambassador for his hometown, where he was born in abject poverty.

She was an energetic young cub reporter for a local TV news team. Then she moved up to a big city market and the rest is history. It’s too bad she joined the trendy set.

I like simple names as well. But people in power like to honor their heros.

Obama is no longer president

Opressive black trash demands no longer need to be considered, much less be considered.

Opry National Airport ... ONA for abbreviation.
