Bush has replaced the FAA Administrator with a Navy Fly Boy to lead the USA out of solely military airspace, as a giveaway to airlines. These airlines aren't even domestic carriers. They are the new European editions that bring Europeans to the USA for a 'cheap holiday outing.'
Bush had these plans a long time ago. He is literally selling the National Security of the USA, to allow exploitation of USA military airspace while dumping huge amounts of additional carbon dioxide into the troposphere.
It has been completely laughable to watch CNN pander to Bush/Cheney. Did I say pander? I should have said succumb. Chad, what's his name, weather man had this hideous USA Map with little gray airplanes covering every inch of the country stating, "The airlines are experiencing delays because they don't have any place to land and therefore can't take off."
Sure. CNN, the Bush/Cheney propaganda network is at it again; then AC 360 promotes coal as a reasonable fuel alternative to ? oil ? Cheaper, perhaps, different carbon load from oil, NEVER.

Washington Wire: Bush Taps Sturgell To Lead FAA (click here)
By Patty Donmoyer
NOVEMBER 19, 2007 -- President George W. Bush late last month tapped Robert Sturgell, a former pilot for United Airlines, to lead the Federal Aviation Administration, succeeding Marion Blakey, who left the agency in September after her five-year term ended. Sturgell, who was also a U.S. Navy aviator, was Blakey's deputy since 2003. "Bobby has worked tirelessly to modernize our nation's air-traffic control system,'' White House spokeswoman Dana Perino told reporters upon announcing the nomination last month. The Senate must confirm the nomination. Sturgell will take the helm of an agency that's trying to restructure aviation taxes, placate the air traffic controllers union over pay, and reduce congestion at the nation's busiest airports, most urgently in New York.
Bush/Cheney are liars and deceivers as well as some of the most corrupt politicians on Earth. They never intended to reduce the USA's carbon load and never will ! It is not about holiday travel. It's about selling the concept of making military airspace available to commercial use. It's intended to continue to be used. I didn't think holiday travel was a national emergency, so much so that military airspace and compromising National Security was required. It's about money and plenty of it.

Travelers expected the worst from Newark Liberty International Airport this weekend, recalling seemingly endless security lines, hours-long waits on the tarmac and delayed or even canceled flights that tarnished past Thanksgiving trips.
Bush/Cheney need legislation to regulate. This is simply outrageous. Maybe now we can open airlines up to the very air space we have to have available to scramble NORAD. Now there is a thought ! Liars, they are all liars. Just that simple !
