2. My next flight is tomorrow, for an important cause.

And it doesn't make sense to pit one important federal program against another.

Air traffic is important, vital, and so are head start and meals on wheels and rental assistance.

All are important.

Yes, let us end the sequester.

But if we must make a bad villian out of some program, let it be corporate tax loopholes or any of the other ridiculous giveaways to the rich.

Thanks.

5. It's not about being late, it's about safety and collisions and avoiding them.

The Republicans are ridiculous.

DU posts that pit one important service against another are ridiculous.

And playing into the MSM trap of pitting one against the other with a reply like yours is, well, not at all productive.

Let's place the blame where it belongs and not point fingers at good programs that didn't get cut.

No programs should have been cut.

Period.
