“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Fun in the friendly skies

I would totally freak out of this happened to me...

DALLAS (AP) - Continental Airlines Inc. (CAL) is apologizing to its customers for "poor conditions" aboard a transatlantic flight where one passenger described sewage spilling down the aisle from a lavatory.
"I've never felt so offended in all my life," passenger Collin Brock of Washington state told Seattle's KING-TV. "I felt like I had been physically abused and neglected. I was forced to sit next to human excrement for seven hours."


Funny, those exact words were used by Jimmy Carter to describe having to sit next to Michael Moore at the '04 Democratic Convention.

And then the understatement of the year...

Continental spokesman Dave Messing on Thursday confirmed that there had been a problem with the plane's lavatory during the flight.Ya think, Dave?

I want to know why a TV station in Seattle gives a hoot about conditions on a trans atlantic flight. Since ZERO transatlantic flights originate from SeaTac Intl, Who cares ? Poor Collin - he felt abused and neglected. Other than sitting on his fat #$@, what did he do to help solve the problem. Did he, or any other passenger volunteer to plunge the toilet? Did he or any other passnger offer to sweep up the crap. I imagine that the entire flight crew had their hands full with the real blockage problem, and having to deal with Mr. Neglected and his fellow whiny flightmates. No one forced him to go over seas, so I think he can just sit and swelter in the slop and stink, or he could have gotten up and done something about it. Enjoy life in Europa Coll.
