nor do i think he will stand up to the eu trying to tax everyone in the name of ‘saving the planet’
“Does anyone really think Obama will sign this? And give more freedom to citizens?’
Give more freedom to citizens???????????? First our government is not created to give freedom to citizens we give the government a few defined rights and responsibilities.
In fact they are taking 100% guaranteed constitutional rights every time they interfere with the ruling elite’s objectives.
What protection does Inhofe think will be guaranteed with this piece of a$$ wipe?
We have a right to have our borders protected and they do not do it.
We have a 4th amendment right against searches without a warrant yet that is being violated 100,000+ times per day in airports, government buildings, train stations...
We have a right to life but the government has determined that you only have a right to life upon exit of your mother and even then the dark lord wants to allow murder of a baby shortly after birth.
We have a right to arms which shall not be infringed yet infringed that right has been and continues to be minimized.
We have an alleged right to our property yet the government either can take it or reduce its worth.
What we need is a mass destruction of most laws stripping the federal government of any powers not designated by the constitution. If that were done Inhofe would not need freedom of information (because we already had it thanks to the founders).
I once took a friend of mine for a tour of fort Pierce International Airport where I got my licence.
As we walked the entire place I asked 11 different pilots, Mechanics etc what they thought about the F.A.A.?
Each and every one I asked had a horror story to tell about their anal ways. not onw had a good thing to say.
Vest Pocket Veto!
The FAA has destroyed a ridiculous number of pilot’s lives. Few pilots can afford to get to the point to appeal to the NTSB, and indeed, as this article states, the NTSB just rubber stamps the FAA’s decision. Being married to a pilot, I’ve heard some absolute horror stories of lives of commercial pilots destroyed by the loss of their livelihood by the vindictive, power crazed FAA. It’s downright evil. It also destroys the health of the lower level people that work for them because of the extreme stress of dealing with the extreme evil on a daily basis.
The FAA also has a racket going with the HIMS program.
“HIMS is specific to commercial pilots and coordinates the identification, treatment and return to the cockpit of impaired aviators. It is an industry-wide effort in which companies, pilot unions, and FAA work together to preserve careers and further air safety.”
Someone drops a dime on a pilot for a bit too much drinking, they become a permanent revenue stream because they never get out of the program, and only approved FAA psychiatrists and counselors are used, usually only one of each in the major cities where it’s offered, so they’re referring to each other. So a pilot gets sent to a shrink, who of course determines they need treatment and puts them in the program. I’m betting they get a nice kick back. Pilots never get out of the program. So take care guys drinking with your pilot buddies when you aren’t flying. There might be a gay guy that’s mad you spurned his advances or an FO/FE that doesn’t like you as a captain.
“The president has 10 days from the time it made it to his desk on July 26 to sign the bill, said Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), a member of the Senate General Aviation Caucus and a CFI with more than 10,000 hours who introduced the bill.”
This guy has some SERIOUS experience in this area - hopefully things work out for him. For if they don’t, it sends a really sad message regarding this country.
