FAA NADIN COMPUTER CRASH IS MISGUIDEDLY BLAMED ON PARTS NOT PEOPLE
QRNewswire/Rockland County, NY: 
From Quiet Rockland Attorney John J. Tormey III, Esq.: “Regrettably but predictably, this week’s FAA recidivist inability to maintain its own flight-control equipment has already been mischaracterized by special interests seeking to further their own political agendas – including mischaracterization by New York Senator Charles Schumer.
 
“Those self-dealing touts would have you believe that the solution to FAA management incompetence is to throw US$35 Billion more of YOUR dollars at the problem in the form of an ill-conceived 2009 FAA Reauthorization Bill (S. 1451/HR 915). By their logic, because 1,000 monkeys might have trouble writing “Hamlet” on Smith Corona typewriters, we should now buy each monkey a Gateway 700XL instead.
 
“The FAA’s failure, is the failure of humans. Corrupted humans. Not corrupted files. The failures are an FAA ‘Administrator’ named Randy Babbitt - college drop-out and dim political hack. A ‘COO’ UAL plant named Hank Krakowski who led a fellow stunt-pilot to his death in Illinois in 1999. A drama major-now-‘Redesign Project Manager’ named Steven Ray Kelley who helped cause the death of 6 innocent passengers in a mid-air 2-plane crash over New Jersey in 1985.
 
“And now, almost a full year after Administration turnover, the remainder of the federal government has still failed to date to effect the timely thorough Oberstar-urged ‘Top-To-Bottom’ clean-out of those inept vampiric FAA personnel still lurking in the halls of 800 Independence. These residual aeromercantile malefactors are all vestiges of the FAAiled Marion Blakey/Bobby Sturgell era of the revolving-door cozy relationship between agency and industry. After Thursday’s NADIN debacle, the American people are once again reminded that the “regulator” and the “regulated” are still one – and that they still suck. And now they want to use their own incompetence as the pretextual basis to suck-out 35 Billion more of your dollars.
 
“We were promised change. Yet our climate consists of federal judicial appointments at standstill, medical panels providing harmful misinformation regarding cancer screenings, banking officials who cannot explain why bonus-babies are high-fiving each other on Wall Street, slip-of-the-tongue law enforcement officials promising terrorist death-penalties before the trial commences - and Sturgell-hangover FAA personnel who can do nothing but fulfill their infamous and well-recognized Tombstone Agency culture by mishandling systems and technology thereby risking the death of innocent Americans. We again urge Congress and the federal government to terminate S.1451 - say ABSOLUTELY NO! to the requested US$35 Billion Dollars of wasted FAA Reauthorization money - and fire feckless FAA management en masse. Let Randy Babbitt and his pack of fellow agency imposters now step aside in favor of responsible professionals who can actually remember where they left the keys to the tech-room!”
