Quote from ARogueTrader: 4. Kerry, even if he did agree with Sullivan would have had only the power of introducing some legislation, or attempting to call some hearing on the issue. Not so, when Congressman start asking questions, outside of hearings, the bureaucrats get mighty nervous. If a Congressman just passes along info and doesn't follow up, the issue is placed at the bottom of the pile. You continue to place some magical power in the hands of Kerry Most American underestimate the power of being a Congressman. The power they have in DC is breath taking. Credibility is accorded by who you are, what position you hold, who do you know.
Correct. Being wealthy in DC doesn't mean jack; it's the power and a four term Senator has got plenty of it.
Basically it was there to learn during the Carter years; an administration that had no idea how the political game works in Washington.
Q. What part of- the Logan Airport in Massechusetts is not under the judrisdiction of the FAA and the DOT and;" A. Maybe the vending machines? Security however, is ultimately under the the control of, and repsonsibility of the FAA and DOT guidelines. So the question was obviously rhetorical. Therefore, the responsibility for the lack of security was on the DOT and the FAA for not having stricter guidelines.
This is in direct conflict with your earlier statement, the one you asked me to remind you of previously: Quote from ARogueTrader: "the Logan Airport in Massechusetts is not under the judrisdiction of the FAA and the DOT"
Why am I not surprised that neither ART nor RS has responed to this quote from Kerry. You guy's are in some serious, delusional denial.
Oh, I'm sure the Roguester will with something like: "Wait, were you there? Did you yourself actually hear Kerry say that? How do you know that Kerry was even in the country that day?"
