#3 "Ridden hard and put up wet" is a description of over-working a horse and not caring for it afterward.

#4 I'm writing Fox again today. I wrote to Fox in 2005 complaining when they caved into CAIR's demand to issue a PSA designed to smooth the ruffled feathers of a few muslim vultures.

Today's letter will be preemptive. Today I'm asking them to put a hold on any stupid idea that another bogus PSA is needed to pacify the muslims.

Is a PSA put out to placate the NAACP when any of a dozen tv crime shows depict black criminals? No.

Stop the dhimmitude. Stop the appeasement. Stop it now.

Just got off the phone with my wife. To show my family puts it's money where it's mouth is, my wife is selling her 75 shares of Northwest Airlines. At a freaking loss, thank you. Why? NWA caved real quick to CAIR and the 40 muslims in Germany that showed up 20 minutes before take off and were "humiliated" when NWA didn't hold the plane for their asses to get back to Detroit from the hajj. NWA = cowardice personified.

How many folk here at RB think NWA will be happy to hold the plane for you when you show up at the counter 20 minutes before take-off? Give me a show of hands?

#5 I don't see no hands.

I know a guy who had to fight his way onto a plane when he showed up at the ticket counter 59 minutes before the flight. The rules say 60 minutes, you know.

#6 If its any consolation, NWA is, I believe, the biggest US flag carrier operating Airbust aircraft. And I also believe that on a percentage basis, their passenger jets are mainly Airbust also. And their flight attendants are ugly.

#8 The last time I rode NWA every bloody seat was filled with a wide backside, and my seat was broken... all the way from Cincinnati to Hong Kong -- worst maintenance and lack of cleanliness I've seen on an airline with international pretensions. I hope they've mproved since the late '90s, as it looks like they're set to buy Delta, darn it!

I'm shocked and pleased that Fox is in this brouhaha. After all, some 5% (or at least a significant but non-controlling number) of shares are held by one of the Saudi princelings, who has boasted that Fox management is very responsive to his suggestions and concerns.

#9 Let NWA become the official Muz carrier. I'm with USN, if I see that the aircraft is an Airbust, I change flights. Have you ever noticed the weird gawddamn noises emanating from the bowels of these things ? Something's trying to break all the damn time. I swore off these lepers years ago. Let the Muz pile aboard. What we need is more NWA accidents.

#10 I thought that so far, Season 6 of '24' was disappointing - first for the poor writing and second for the mild stench of PC.

On the plus side - NO KIM BAUER.

#11 what's going to corrode our country is listening to the likes of CAIR, and actually giving them air time.
