Too much at stake. Regards, Bob ________________________________ From: owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Robert S. Randazzo Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2008 8:17 PM Subject: RE: Commander-List: FUTURE OF AVIATION Fellow Commanders- One of the things that makes these United States a wonderful country is that a) we have the RIGHT to speak our mind, b) we have the OBLIGATION to respect other's opinions, and c) we get to vote at the local, state and federal levels to set direction for our nation. Unfortunately, in the age of 24hr media coverage many of us seem to focus on our rights without giving much thought to our obligations. This whole Red State/Blue State, My Guy vs. Your Guy, My Issue vs. Your Issue is creating a country completely polarized around the ends and soft in the middle. The partisanship of the past twenty years has caused an unfortunate majority of people to forget that some of us don't care where you are from, or what God you pray to, or what you think our national agenda should be. Why don't we care? Because you are a fellow American- and at the end of the day all that matters is that you love our country, participate positively in the process and don't close your mind or your ears to viewpoints other than your own. So with that being said, I'd like to politely request that we leave discussion of our national politics to discussion lists set up specifically for that purpose. Last I checked this list was for all of us Commander owners and enthusiasts to share knowledge and our love of the airplane...and "we Americans" aren't the only ones in the room. Whomever might win our election on Tuesday (or however many days afterward that it might take) it will not change the fact that Commander parts are hard to come by, hydraulic pumps will leak, occasionally some of us need sound advice from more experienced commander owners, or maybe we just some good old fashioned camaraderie based around a common interest. If you feel that you must tell the members of this list your political views: Put a McCain or Obama bumper sticker on your commander, and at the next Fly-In everyone will know how you voted... But please- let's leave this list for its primary purpose. Robert S. Randazzo N414C From: owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-commander-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of nico css Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2008 4:05 PM Subject: RE: Commander-List: FUTURE OF AVIATION Politics are such a large factor in our lives, especially in this election, that it is hard to keep it out of our regular discourse, such as the future of aviation and that a pilot may well be our commander-in-chief on Wednesday. Some folks still believe that it will be just business as usual after Tuesday. Regardless of who wins, this country will have to adapt to the threats that stack up against her from the outside and the inside. Forgive me for passing this along on this list, but the Christians among us may want to take a look at this http:www.acu.org/prayerchain.asp . Those who do not believe in Christ, folks, I still love you for the other bonds that keep us together which I cherish and treasure. Having been upfront about what can be expected at this link, you may choose to go or not to go there before you go there. As a wise old farmer once said, sometimes you get and sometimes you get got. This is not one of those. However you guys vote on Tuesday, vote wisely and vote so that you can live with it later.

I have never before entered the realm of politics with the Flight Group, but this year is crucial to the future of what brings us together, aviation. AOPA has for years been fighting the good fight against higher cost and reduced access for GA airplanes. They may soon be dealt a blow that they cant overcome. As we prepare to vote for president this year PLEASE remember this. Love him or hate him, George Bush IS NOT RUNNING!!!!! John Mccain is. John is a pilot, a naval aviator. What you may not know is that his wife, Cindy, is also a pilot and the Maccain family operates a GA airplane. Imagine having both the president and first lady GA PILOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But wait, it gets better. Sarah Palin's husband, Todd, is also a private pilot with a current third class medical and the Palin family owns and operates a GA airplane, a Super Cub. Sarah Palin comes from a state the literally survives on the wings of GA airplanes. There are many reasons to vote for an individual candidate, but I cant imagine not voting for a "Dream Team Ticket" like this for GA. 100000075x1212075880x1200752631/aol?redir=http://news.aol.com/elections ? ncid=emlcntusnews00000001"> AOL News. href="http://www.matronics.com/contribution">http://www.matronics.com/c h ref="http://www.matronics.com/Navigator?Commander-List">http://www.matr o nics.com/Navigator?Commander-List href="http://forums.matronics.com">http://forums.matronics.com http://www.matronics.com/contribution http://www.matronics.com/Navigator?Commander-List http://forums.matronics.com ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:37:16 AM PST US Subject: RE: Commander-List: possessed From: "Steele, Bob" Danger Will Robinson - Danger.

Not much good can come from political or religious postings on this list. Nothing will be learned and no minds will change. It doesn't matter how thoughtful or studied someone's point of view is. It would nice if everyone were free to stand up and be heard, but no one is seriously interested in hearing what it is you have to say. Say something that goes against the party line and a dozen free-thinking 'ditto-heads' will shout you down and impune your honor, intelligence, and patriotism, without having a clue as to who you are or how you live. Go ahead, try it! I have, and I'm not much liked. Most people would prefer to spit across the aisle at each other. Maybe this time will be different. All I've seen so far is an accusation of a 600% increase in gas taxes, and Obama is tired of living out of a jet. Steve P.S. If my signature has Col-East in it, the opinions are mine. Commander folks, please don't hold it against the company if you ever do business with us. These are good people here. ----- Original Message ----- To: commander-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 7:30 AM Subject: RE: Commander-List: FUTURE OF AVIATION nico css wrote: > I am truly sorry I offended you and others, Will. Nico, Don't apologize for having a strongly held opinion about the future of the country. I'm betting it's an opinion based upon a thorough study of the issues and peoples involved and not simply following the herd. We've got way to much of people bowing down trying not to "offend" anyone going on right now. All we're ending up with is an erosion of personal liberties, freedoms, and rights.

Face the undeniable fact that the very soul of our beloved country is in the balance. Anyone who thinks otherwise is having an equally hard time keeping his brain warm. Those brilliant men who crafted our constitution would puke to see what a mess we've made of this Republic. Will our nation survive an obviously rancid choice...perhaps; but the damage that is done will require years (decades) to repair - if at all. At this point we're not even sure one of the candidates has a valid birth certificate much less the rampant Obamanation of voter fraud - treason in the extreme. We're on the brink of an era of fascism that will directly affect our freedom to exist much less fly. Vote for the fascist and his willing accomplices in the House and Senate and kiss your sweet Commander goodbye. No wait - I know; let's spread the wealth instead.

So I won't try too awful hard. I'm tired of being lied to by both sides. Arguements are pushed to ridiculus extremes. Facts don't matter. And now we pick our news sources that tell us what we already believe. (An email is not a news source.) Pick the most extreme lefty or righty, and knock down a straw man. Our government over the last eight years has been incompetant (and in many ways radical). Genuine old-time conservatives have been abandoning the current policies and party in droves. Most of those conservatives a lot smarter than I am. I don't believe Obama's nuts. I don't believe he's a commie. If he governs from the center, and listens to dissenting opinions, he might just do ok.

If the script for this season's F1 Championship had been a movie, everyone would say it was too far-fetched. A truly amazing end to the F1 Championship.

IMHO, as a nation, we are in deep Sununu, regardless of candidate, and Ill still stand to defend it. I also don't care what you ate for breakfast for that matter. It irrelevant to This Forum. What I do care about, is that you've chosen to debase the value and integrity of the Commander List and insulted everyone intelligence. Every time you espouse your "beliefs", ridicule or denigrate the efforts of others trying to provide, improve and maintain a wholesome a beneficial forum such as this, You are slowly destroying the thing you say you defend. Yeah, I'm pissed off. I was pissed off IN Vietnam and IN Korea. I get pissed off, every time people say they are patriotic out one side their mouth, and then simultaneously set about to destroy the freedoms (like the commander-list) simply to make themselves look good in the 'eyes' of others. You are a sycophant obfuscating the good nature of these people, just to make yourself feel good. I could care less. Thin- skinned. YOU BET , I AM and tired of defending twits who work thier Mouths more than thier Backs. I encourage you to vote. Just keep the results and your opinion to yourself. If you want to voice your political believes, find a forum for that. Hell, Call Rush, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear his palaver read back to him. If you want to voice your relilgious beliefs....go to church. If you just want to rant.....rant to your wife (or significant other, if you are of that persuasion) or just kick the dog. Just keep it out of the list. If the moderator had any Huevos, he would have cut off the discussion as required by the by-laws. Instead, by allowing your little "Freedom of Speech" He's allowed the list to become polarized. In the future, I hope he does a better job at filter out the crap.

I think your reaction was initially very succinct and honest. When others disagreed with your position you chose to get typically nasty, as many with your views do. Then, you chose to get angry, say not so nice things about someone and then be untruthful about the "I don't care ifs..................." . Of course you do! You care about all things that are not of your side of the aisle. Thank God (who is still among US) for Victor and the others who voiced their opinions regarding your resignation from the Commander Group. Since this is still a free country Victor exercised the same rights you did.....You chose to leave and he chose to stay. Pretty simple to me! I'm 75 years of age and I can tell anyone that Korea and Vietnam are not strange places to me. But your diatribe on this subject seems like you think this country is a one-view place. Victor and I are entitled to our views and opinions, regardless of how others see things. I don't know Victor but I'm certain he is capable of expressing his views in many "forums". In your name-calling paragraph you left out the most commonly used term to describe someone who is not of your political leaning....hypocrites. This is used quite often by your folks to describe my folks whenever you cannot achieve a sophisticated communicative term that you hope you spell correctly. Now, here is my position in all this. I love God I love my Country I love my Commanders I love that I get to vote tomorrow I love that you get to vote tomorrow I think our forum is just fine and it really suits me, since I have the mechanical aptitude of a post.

You are a sycophant obfuscating the good nature of these people, just to make yourself feel good. I could care less. Thin- skinned. YOU BET , I AM and tired of defending twits who work thier Mouths more than thier Backs. I encourage you to vote. Just keep the results and your opinion to yourself. If you want to voice your political believes, find a forum for that. Hell, Call Rush, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear his palaver read back to him. If you want to voice your relilgious beliefs....go to church. If you just want to rant.....rant to your wife (or significant other, if you are of that persuasion) or just kick the dog. Just keep it out of the list. If the moderator had any Huevos, he would have cut off the discussion as required by the by-laws. Instead, by allowing your little "Freedom of Speech" He's allowed the list to become polarized. In the future, I hope he does a better job at filter out the crap. Gentlemen, if you have any questions regarding the health, maintenance or improvement of anything Aero Commander Related, it would be a pleasure to share that information with you. Willis E.

This list's members are a small band of brothers (no sexism intended) who have transcended their differences. I apologized early on, having been slapped into humility on many occasions; the same humility that keeps us alive in the cockpit. Welcome home.
