Genius.

As was asked when this issue was debated -- and resolved, we thought -- "If you don't trust a pilot to carry a gun, what the [bleep] are you doing allowing him at the controls of a plane carrying 300 people?"

Nah, he's not a hard-core ideologue or anything. He just wants practical, common-sense solutions.

How long before he demands that the cockpit doors be propped open
so his Muslim brothers can take a tour ?

then somebody please 'splain to me the problem.

Well, last November we had an election for President.

And this clown, Barak Hussein Obama, won.

Believe it or not!

what was the stated reason for such a dumb action??

It was prejudicing a minority, making it harder for Muslims to enter the cockpit.

Obama defunded the semi-annual training program that enables pilots to keep their gun qualification.

Don't worry. It won't go to waste.

The new VOLUNTEER CIVILIAN ARMY will need training somewhere, and money.

Ace of Spades is pretty reliable. You will get more real news from "just a blog" then the MSN, but check below for sources you may or may not believe.

Plus searching brings up confirmation, and it's quite easy if you dispute something posted here at Free Republic:

It seems to be defunding of the training program for pilots firearm license. Hard to pin-down the wording.

Friends do not let friends get shot is why Hussein disarmed the pilots.. Time for them to tell the Junior Senator too go to hell and Laugh at him.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

That evil SOB is aiding and abetting mohammedan terrorists and is encouraging further attacks on CONUS.

More terrorist attacks = more scared citizens = more laws restricting freedoms = more power over our lives concentrated in the hands of these wannabe overlords.

A long four years? Only if we survive it.

Yes, I was just telling The Husband how odd it is to miss the Clintons. How very very strange. The difference is they do not hate America. The Usurper does.
