I have a HuGE problem with the government picking and choosing who to attack based on the political leanings of the guy (illegal alien) at the top.

I do as well.  It is akin to Nazi Germany, or Soviet Russia which is where I believe we are heading, especially if Obama (Hillary) is re-elected.  I am afraid to speak my mind in public or over the phone for fear of being punished by my own government.  If the IRS, EPA, DHS, BATF, etc can employ Gestapo like tactics, which they are, then our representative republic has been replace by a totalitarian regime.

Anthony- I knew I could count on you to mention the AA-1 series.  From what I've seen of those, wouldn't it be a trivial cost differential to just buy a Cheetah or maybe even a Tiger, then I could capture more of my mission profile (those occasions I need to fill all the seats)?

You really pay a premium for the extra seats and HP, especially in the Tiger.  A Cheetah or even a Traveller would be a good compromise though, and you could at least carry three pretty easily.  I found the back seats of my Tiger was usually empty or just had bags on the seats, but I did like having the higher performance and load carrying capabilities, but it does come at a cost up front, and to operate (mostly fuel burn).

When I am in the market for another plane, I may try the Mooney M20 series, but I want to get more hours in them.

The mission of NASA is two fold.  Promote government solutions for Man Made Climate Change, and promote Muslim Outreach.

Yeah, but the media loves him/her as their agenda is to mainstream the LBGT community, and lifestyle.

Exactly, and it makes me vomit. That said, Obama putting the rainbow colors on the white house after the SCOTUS ruling was despicable.

Yes, the Rainbow White House was a celebration for 1% of Americans, and insulted probably 75% or more.  Obama is an anti-American despot.

That wasn't my intention. My fault for being vague. Let me clarify:

There is an overwhelming amount of evidence supporting that man has influenced climate change. You can argue about how involved the government should get, what moral obligations we have to try to affect it, and other matters of opinion, but simply denying it is ignorant.

There is NOT an overwhelming amount of evidence that man has influenced climate.  The evidence that has been trotted out are flawed models with bad assumptions in order to get the outcome they want.  The hockey stick graph and the like is pure BS.

As much as Trump is an asshat....Im not too sure his presidency would seriously be that bad.  I mean he does have some serious business acumen...although he also has bankrupted his companies before he always seems so rebuild. Is that not what America is going to need?

I think Trump would be really good at surrounding himself with good people.  Not academics, and Dem campaign hacks.  People in business, and industry experienced and proven to GET THINGS DONE, not just talk about stuff like the Obama crowd.

Same here. Obviously our parents didn't care if we lived or died.  ;).

Today anyone letting a kid go out on their own at age seven could be called before the government under threat of loss of child to the state. How dare they think that they raised a responsible kid without governmental oversight!

Yeah, my parents were fine with it because we always went in groups of kids.  We would have been embarrassed to have our parents go with us at that age.

If it were just me flying by myself, I'd probably look for a Grumman AA1/A, B, or C.  Inexpensive to operate, and a few knots faster than similarly powered trainers.  They are a blast to fly, also and have nice handling characteristics.

I'll hold my nose and vote for the Hildebeast for two reasons.  The first is I think she'd actually make an impressive POTUS.  All these guys lie their heads off, so I'm not that worried about that.  The second is if she does become POTUS its going to be so fun listening to you guys bitch about it!

So you are OK with Hillary's stated polices of more, and more entlitelment programs administered by are oh so efficient Federal Goverment, and higher, and higher taxes.  She kept one upping Bernie Sanders dduring the "debate", and he advocates a 90% income tax rate!

I hope they do.  The populace will revolt and we'll see what's next.

Be careful what you wish for.

Yep. Hillary and Obama encouraged the overthrow and murder (and sodomy with a bayonet) of Gaddafi in Libya. That worked out well - well, except for 4 dead Americans of course. But really, what difference, at this point, does it make?

The four that died knew about the illegally gun running that the Administration was doing in Libya.  Therefore, they were expendable.  Hillary purposely did not allow reinforcements to be sent there when they were requested by the Ambassador over, and over.  She is a murderer.

Amazing isn't it?  Man Made Global Climate Change is the biggest hoax ever.  Governments, and politicians figured out that just taxing people more may be unpopular so they thought up a "good" reason to confiscate even more money from the productive.  Let's SAVE THE PLANET!  Then they got a bunch of useful idiots to believe in this goofy religion.

Helicopter parents.  Our parents took us out when we were really youung then by the age of seven or so we went BY OURSELVES.  No needs for meddling parents trying to do everything for their kids instead of letting them figure it out on their own.  We are raising a nation of wusses.
