All of us are aware of the goodies we dangled in front of Turkey and I find it embarrassing. I am glad the Turks didn't nibble--its fiscally stupid, sets a bad (read: Romans dumping silver on the barbarians to defend them) precedent.
So, Mr President,
Why not take those funds and offer 1/2 off flights to countries to nations that have publicly supported us?
That's right...let us fly to Denmark, Britain, or wherever and spend our vacation US dollars touring on a wave of thanks and good will.
**Helps airlines...
**Strenghtens ties...
**Makes our critics peeved at the loss of US trade & tourists...
**Lets the world know we are not afraid to travel...
**Boosts our ally's economy, opens some new trade relationships.
**Doesn't cost any new $$ because it was already designated to prop up the Weak Man of Europe.(Turkey)
C'mon George, take 300.00 off my flight to Denmark and I'll pay the rest and spread the word we appreciate their support!
Time to have a burger and freedom fries,...
