Maybe we need to have JetBlue put their money where their mouth is:

******

Thank you for contacting JetBlue with your comment.

To clarify, JetBlue is not sponsoring the popular DailyKos web site. JetBlue donated ten tickets to the YearlyKos Convention, a gathering of 1500 bloggers and prominent American politicians that includes Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, to expand our reach in the online world and to encourage customers to take advantage of our new service to Chicago, where the convention is being held. This is one of the largest gathering of bloggers and online communicators, a community of growing importance to any company. Our donation of a handful of tickets for event organizers is quite different than an endorsement. We show FOX News as one of the 36 channels of DirecTV programming on our planes, but by doing so we do not endorse their views, just as we do not endorse the views of individuals exercising their freedom of speech online. We would be equally pleased to sponsor a seminar or convention hosted by FOX News should that opportunity arise, and in fact, we have co-sponsored events with FOX News.

JetBlue does not subscribe to any specific set of political beliefs and certainly does not endorse the wide range of views expressed by the participants of this convention. We treat our customers and crewmembers with dignity and respect, regardless of political viewpoints, and we encourage them to draw their own conclusions with regard to politics. Simply put, it’s none of our business why you travel – we just want you to choose JetBlue for our friendly service and comfy seats.

Regards,

JetBlue Airways

Thanks for that. I sent them an email earlier too and haven’t heard back from them yet. I’m sure I’ll get the same one you posted. Thanks for posting the other information about Soros. I had no idea about that. Here in OK we don’t have Jet Blue. Hope it stays that way!
