No public works or buildings named after a person unless they have been dead 25 years.

Otherwise name it after the location. Eidlewise was a good name for and airport.

[DarthVader]

Soon this insanity is going to be blotted out all over this nation.

[River_Wrangler]

Why would the people of Lost Wages name their airport “Dickhead Airport”???

[bobcat62]

Art Bell International?

[Ouderkirk]

How about Bugsy Segal ?
In a hat tip how about frank sinatra or dean martin

[trebb]

Gonna call it “The Black-eyed Gangsta”?

[mewzilla]

If Nevada and LV had any brains, not to mention marketing savvy, they’d name it after Elvis Presley.

All who love freedom should oppose this move. Pat McCarran was a solid conservative. Although he was a Democrat, he opposed the New and Fair Deals and helped to rid America of Russian spies during the Cold War.

[Fiji Hill]

I have a friend who is Chinese and admires Pat McCarran for pushing through legislation that enabled his family to come to this country after they escaped Communist China.

[Fiji Hill]

If McCarran was a fascist, he wasn’t the only such American in the 1930s.

Indeed, he was a fascist. To the liberals, everyone to the right of Nancy Pelosi is a fascist.

[Fiji Hill]

If this scheme succeeds, they will next rename Dulles Airport near Washington, DC because its namesake, John Foster Dulles was a hard-line anti-Communist. They will probably rename it after John Kerry.

[bgill]

Too funny.

[Celerity]

“McCarran was an avowed fascist and he has been accused of espousing racist and anti-Semitic ideals.”

Yeah, he was a Democrat. Am I missing something ?

[Lisbon1940]

Idlewild

[cyclotic]

Just the input

[cpdiii]

It will be called, “SLEAZE INTERNATIONAL”

[SkyDancer]

The truth is having the airport named after Pat McCarran is a bad idea, too. His name means nothing to more than 40 million tourists a year — many of them international travelers

I'm thinking of all the charts and maps both nationally and internationally that will have to be updated not counting software to change navigational points.
