What if they get divorced? Does only one of them get to keep the airport?
Things just shouldn’t be named after living persons. It’s creepy.

Things just shouldnt be named after living persons. Its creepy. The entire convention of naming things has become overly politicized, and therefore out of whack.
I am no fan of Bill Clinton, but I can understand why Little Rock would want to honor a governor who went on to become president. OTOH, what, exactly did HRC do for the state?
Meanwhile, here in NYC, we just renamed the Triboro bridge for for Robert Kennedy, a man who served three years as NY senator, one of which was spent exclusively campaigning for president. Senator Kennedy, who was not from NY, established residence in the state because his brother had already taken the available seat in Massachusettes. He had no significant personal accomplishments as NY senator. The bridge was named after him because he was assassinated in California, and because of his last name. There is no bridge in NYC named for Nathan Hale, who gave up his one life for his country near 66th St. on September 22, 1776. There is no bridge named for Teddy Roosevelt. Ed Koch deserves the Queensboro Bridge (no pun intended). Robert Kennedy is far down the list of deserving NYers.

One of my wife’s former classmates should get credit, but there is only so much space in a tagline.

She should get credit for being the woman behind the throne, if you catch my drift. LOL

If they get divorced she gets tossed and found and he gets the X-rated magazine rack.

Is this the same airport that Clinton’s buddy flew cocaine to for all those years he was governor?

To be fair and balanced, it should have been named the “Huckabilly” airport.
Motto: “we got room for all kinds of baggage”.
