In addition, all it is going to take is another spike in oil, or another attack to send at least 3 major airlines immediately into bankruptcy. DL UA US.
AA would be next.
CO and NW are the healthiest.
What do the ME jihadis have to do to be arrested? Heck, plenty DID do something that are in Gitmo and THEY are released!!
We are on our own. Do not ever forget it.
and the government when it all goes to pieces..will NOT be your friend. Trust me on that.
Amen and well said. Here is the proof of your wisdom:
This article from right here on FR from a few years ago showcases the Executive Orders that await us in the aftermath of a massive terrorist attack. These orders have been active since the JFK years and were strengthened and tied together by both Republican and RAT Presidents since! This stuff is terrifying. Glad I'm a Believer. Amen, come Lord Jesus.
Bush is absolutely correct IMHO in refusing to cave in to the RAT request to tap into the emergency reserve just for some dubious price relief. He should however, use any further spikes in price or an attack (GOD FORBID!) to force the Congress into emergency drilling off the coasts of Florida, California and all over ANWAR. Those places should be drilled like (ahem) a $10 hooker, if you'll pardon my french. The oil companies would probably capitalize on the finds by selling the resultant products overseas for more profit rather than see their soaring profits drop here in the U.S. In that case, I'd suggest that they be threatened with "nationalization" on the basis of national security. I'm all for capitalism, but Big Oil is just out of control. Of course, I'd like to see the Fed dissolved, too.
Keep a very close eye on South America.
