Whenever I fly, I keep a couple of flavors of gum and a few flavors of mints on the radio panel for the copilot and flight attendants to help themselves to. The mints come in tins that reference the Bush junta. There is a tin of Embarrassmints, Indictmints ("eat them with conviction") and Impeachmints. All feature animated renderings of Bush and his politburo on the lids. Just about everyone I fly with finds them amusing, and most want to know where they can get some.
I was flying some months ago with a real right - winger of a copilot. About midway through the trip, he pointed to the mints and said, "you know, I could make a case for political harassment."
I replied, "I think you really should pursue this." "I just might," he said. I said, "of course, if you should choose to do that, I can guarantee you will never again see Fox News on the television in the flight operations lounge."
He never said another word about it.
