Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.

Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

"(US House Majority Leader Tom) DeLay and the Texas Republicans were attempting to use the federal government as an arm of the Republican Party."

Source: Rep. Martin Frost (D-TX), on Friday's DOT OIG finding that the FAA spent eight hours last May hunting for a plane officials were told may have crashed. There was no crash. Instead, Texas Democrats were using the plane to ferry lawmakers and staffers out of state so they could boycott a congressional redistricting vote drawn up by Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX).
