Stimuluspalooza

Boggling:

150 Million for an airport that carried 20 passengers a day last year? That's stimulus!

Actually I have a fondness for the little airport. Back when I traveled a lot, my favorite airport was in Abilene, Texas. There was something like three flights in and three flights out each day. There were probably a total of three employees in the building at any one time and you got the sense that they'd like you to hurry through so that they could go home. Often my rental car keys were left out on the counter waiting for me.

But the airport was not nearly as pretentious as this Murtha monstrosity. I say that if you don't have more than 20 passengers a day, it's ok to have a terminal with a screen door.
