When I traded in my DC Metro card today, and added some money to it, the new card that popped out had a picture of Obama on it!

Oh, sick!

Were you there in early 2005 prior to the last Presidential inauguration? Did the Metro passes have Bush's picture on them?

I think I already know the answer.

Will my luggage tag say: BOI or BHO or BHA or SHT?

I am always struck by that picture. The fact that the aircraft stayed in one piece is amazing.

OK, name the airport after Obama.
OK, privatize the airport.

What are they going to do when the airport goes bankrupt?

The Bankrupt Barak H Obama International Airport.....fitting since we will be known as the Bankrupt United States of America.

competing for the Olympics (with Mayor Daley obsessed about winning those games)

I've been in Chicago during the dog days....being as summer Olympics are in August, that burg is a piss-poor venue.

Behind the scenes work is already underway to rename Chicago’s Midway Airport after Obama — becoming the Barack H. Obama International Airport.

Reason # 10,418 for me to get the HELL out of Illinois . . .

Look for a BHO Highway or a Barack Obama middle school in your area soon.

Um, would that be the Highway to nowhere?

So on the airport plaque commemorating Mr. Obama, I want to see his accomplishments—you know, life history—listed.

That's going to be a very, very tiny plaque.

In the U.S., it’s illegal to issue a stamp, with a president’s picture, until the president has been dead, for at least a year. That law was passed to ensure that the country has enough time to learn about any scandals that would cause Americans to oppose a stamp, in honor of the president. No location should be named after a president until the president has been dead for at least a year. While he’s president, at least a few of the people, who approved of the name change, will regret it.

Traditionally, one had to die to get something named in his memory.

And those aircraft are far more robust than the incoming coup presidency.
