I heard part of her interview yesterday. She kept going on about how the FAA
has to rely on "Designated Inspectors" for maintenance inspections and the
like. As if a Federal Employee would somehow be better at the job
LOLOLOLOL.

My ENTIRE family is Federal Employees...ain't no way their signing nothing!

Paraphrased, but: "[the FAA has been understaffed] for the past 10 years.
Especially for the past 5-6 years." Guess what that means? (Some may have
to think long and hard about this one.) This is from her phone interview
from one of the cable news networks.

Pretend this is upside down, in 8-point font, 2 pages further on in the
magazine: "The evil Bush administration is trying to use the FAA to kill
you."
