Wow, A Good Republican Position

Bipartisanship lives. Or at least it should because this is one issue where some Republicans are right on:

Two Republican lawmakers in recent days have said they will fight to keep a ban on in-flight cellphone calls in place because they can’t stand to hear people yammer.

Rep. Bill Shuster (R-PA) and Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) have said they will offer bills to keep the ban in place. For Shuster, the issue is noise.

“Let’s face it, airplane cabins are by nature noisy, crowded, and confined,” Shuster, the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said Monday, according to The Hill newspaper. “For those few hours in the air with 150 other people, it’s just common sense that we all keep our personal lives to ourselves and stay off the phone.”

In a statement in late November, Alexander said he would introduce legislation to prevent what he envisions as a more turbulent future for air travel.

“Imagine two million passengers, hurtling through space, trapped in 17-inch-wide seats, yapping their innermost thoughts,” Alexander said. “The Transportation Security Administration would have to hire three times as many air marshals to deal with the fistfights.”

Can someone let me know how I can contribute to the reelection campaign of LAMAR!!!!!? Because I can’t express how strongly I feel about this issue.
