Precedents

    The Fox and Friends people, commenting this morning on the British arms dealer attempting to sell that SA-18 Igla missile, opined that "even shooting one off" would throw the airline industry into a tizzy.  I don't think so.  After all, we got over TWA 800 pretty quickly.  I think the CIA still has that carttoon they made showing how a jet airliner would continue its ascent after having it's nose blown off.  Just dust that off and call it fuel cell failure.

Nah, "pilot error". "The "plane flew into the missile" so the pilots are to blame.

I'm glad I wasnt the only one thinking those tinfoil hatters may actually be right about this one. Seems pretty suspicious now eh?

Anything said by Fox & Friends which isn't of the "See Spot Run" variety, should be ignored.

Mental midgets.

I hafta disagree with you there Baron, for this reason. The best you can hope for from ANY of the morning shows is left-wing spin control. That's what I want, and that's what I get, plus E.D. still gives me wood (okay, semi-hard papier-mâché).
