  1. Oh, I see. I think naming stuff after those other folks is even more frivolous if anything.

    I’ll just look forward to paying a visit to the Noam Chomsky rest stop on the Mass Turnpike after the revolution.

  2. Has any President had a long term strategy in the Middle East?

    The strategy for the last 50 years seems to have been “kiss Israel’s ass and react to other situation as they come up”

  3. etson, my point is I would much prefer things being named after artists, true revolutionaries, civil rights leaders, etc.

    G10, I only have known Laguardia and Kennedy airports by their current names. Wasn’t it named Glenn Curtiss Airport previously? Kind of a slap in the face if you were the original honoree. Either way, I still don’t like it. JFK is significant enough a figure to me to warrant an airport, but there aren’t many other quasi-modern politicians I would put in that category.
