Somehow, this is being treated as some sort of referendum on god knows what.

Originally Posted By bboisvert Why is it news that they've declared bankruptcy? So did Delta Air Lines. Is that an indictment on them in their ability to carry passengers from here to there?

There are other liberal talkers out there who are quite successful on ohter networks. To claim that this bankruptcy is some kind of conservative "victory" is a pipe dream. AAR and Al Franken are just their whipping boys of the day.
