Official White House petition to rename Reagan Airport
Quote:Anyone can post a petition on the "We the People" site, launched by the White House. If a petition gets 100,000 signatures, the administration will respond.

Previously, it only took 25,000 signatures for an official response, but that number was increased after a 2013 petition to build a Death Star -- the planet-destroying space structure from “Star Wars” -- gained enough signatures that it had to be officially addressed.

only liberals would think it's sensible to honor a member of a team that didn't win anything.

I love soccer. I love the World Cup. I'm proud of how far the US got after all only one country ends up with a W and the trophy. The US overachieved.

I also think Tim Howard's performance versus Belgium was epic and admirable but certainly not something you name an airport after.

US soldiers have fought and died or were maimed physically and/or mentally on the field of battle and no one has named an airport for each of them and their sacrifice was greater.

Whoever started the petition to rename the airport for Tim Howard is a well-intentioned idiot.

People do these things as jokes.

Nobody should take 99% of these petitions seriously.

It's a quick and easy way to bring yourself 15 minutes of fame in your group of friends.

Don't knock the guy who seems to want to decide which threads we're supposed to be interested in and which we're not.

I was commenting for myself. You've already proven your bait for anything, even my deliberately provocative thread congratulating Barry on jobs. You guys are so easy it's pathetic.

Check my post (#13) on your "Great jobs report" thread. You are totally transparent.

Come on, articles from the LA times don't send a tingle up your leg? You're as shifty as a rescue dog in a 4th of July fireworks festival.
