Some moronic Metro Nashville Councilmember, Sharon Hurt, wants to seriously rename the Nashville International Airport for Oprah Winfrey. Please vote this poll down (on right side of page - please scroll down) and vote NO on this ludicrous suggestion.
Makes absolutely no sense whatever to rename that airport after Oprah. That’s crazy, idiotic liberal thought.
Thanks everyone. This is going down in flames, 96% no, 4% yes.
Technically, the name of Nashville’s Airport is Berry Field (hence the BNA). I believe it was named after an early aviator. Orpah has only a “yootful” connection to Nashville 4 decades ago. We have 2 Presidents we could name it for from Middle Tennessee: Andrew Jackson and James K. Polk (unlike the recent media worship of GHW Bush, Polk was probably the greatest one-term President). I wouldn’t be opposed to renaming it Jackson-Polk, but not for some corpulent blowhard, racist, and ultraleftwing talkshow host who made her living in Chicago.
What the hell is wrong with BNA or just Nashville International? If anything, Nashville has to have had at least one real war hero or a . Winfrey is a liberal joke who hates Nashville. She is a Chicago/Obama fan. Even Cash or Parton beat the hell out of her.

Have we forgot about the biggest World War One Hero?

The only airport I can think of named for a Black celebrity is New Orleans’ Airport, and that for Louis Armstrong. I think that was well-earned, as Armstrong was a beloved figure (who ever had a bad word about him ?) and an Ambassador for his hometown, where he was born in abject poverty.
Well, yeah. Or did you mean the Oprah thing? Well, yeah. :^)
She was an energetic young cub reporter for a local TV news team. Then she moved up to a big city market and the rest is history. It’s too bad she joined the trendy set.
I like simple names as well. But people in power like to honor their heros.
Obama is no longer president
Opressive black trash demands no longer need to be considered, much less be considered.
Opry National Airport ... ONA for abbreviation.
