Its only a matter of time.......


Someday Orange County will have a similar problem that happened at Denver International Airport where a jet skidded off the runway. Ironically it was a Continental Airlines jet, where Chris Cox's wife Rebecca Cox works as an executive. What we have here is one spouse who is an airport obstructer and a failed Wall Street regulator, while the other works for the airline industry. That is about as strange of a relationship as James Carville being married to Mary Matalin.

Fortunately, there were no fatalities in Denver. While it is terrible that some people were injured during the holiday season, at least they are still alive. It helped that Denver has long runways and large amount of open space in the surrounding area.....kind of like what we have right here in Orange County with the now idle El Toro International Airport.

Instead we are only using John Wayne with its dinky 5700 foot runway on a mere 500 acres. It is only a matter of time before a jets rolls off the runway onto the Corona Del Mar Freeway and explodes into a fireball and there are few if any survivors.
While some nasty NIMBYs would find it amusing for an explosion to hit Newport Beach, will they find it so amusing if at least half the victims on that jet are their fellow South County NIMBYs? So you NIMBYs out there you really should rethink your irrational opposition to El Toro. After all, the life you save someday may be your own!

The fact is John Wayne is really just a blivet, a World War II military term which means "cramming ten pounds of manure in a five-pound bag".
What we have here folks is a tiny airport with nearly 1,000 daily operations with turboprops, jets, and small planes crammed into one setting.

Since I do live in Newport Beach, I will surely be accused of wanting "to shift the noise 7 miles down the road". Blah blah blah! I got news for you, there was already noise from much louder military jets to begin with. What did the South County denizens think they were moving near? A monastery? Also, I am near the Balboa Beach area so the jets at worst are mostly white noise in my area, so noise is hardly an issue to me and I have no need to move it.

I support El Toro because it would be a job creator and an economic catalyst for Orange County. Also, corporate jets with business executives whose time is precious should not be competing for airport space and air space with the traveling masses.

Small charter jets are suitable for John Wayne and commercial jets belong at the much larger El Toro. There are private golf courses for the select few and there are public courses for everyone else. That is how John Wayne and El Toro should work.

I also grow tired of the bitter hateful class warfare NIMBYs from South County who want John Wayne expanded, even though they supposedly grounded El Toro. If they had actually won, why do they keep fighting?

They never did care about the great pork. They just want to expand John Wayne so that can condemn Newport Beach homes and wipe us off the map. We are like Israel where we have hostile neighbors who want to push us into the sea. One can either spend their life being a jealous hater or one can spend their life pursuing success and bettering their financial status.

If these irrational NIMBYs actually made an objective cost analysis between using the existing 3700 acres and already built and paid for aviation infrastructure at El Toro versus sinking 4.5 billion (in 1998 dollars) to double the size of John Wayne, they would see El Toro is a no brainer economically and capacity wise. The great news is Los Angeles World Airports would foot the bill for El Toro conversion. Unlike John Wayne expansion this does not put O.C. taxpayers at risk. Let's show Los Angeles our support and finally move into the 21st century.

El Toro NIMBYs Gored at Ballotbox!



North County has Montezuma's Revenge, but South County suffers from Eltoro's Revenge! By not re-opening El Toro International Airport for business, this has put a curse on the NIMBYs. They have fewer job opportunities, fewer destinations, higher fares, and farther drives to catch a flight. Due to their irrational hatred and class envy of Newport Beach spread by Irvine socialists, they incessantly bang the drum for John Wayne 24/7. However, I got news for them, John Wayne only has a mere 500 acres and contains no room for expansion. It will never be nothing more than a dinky airport incapable of helping Orange County realize its true potential.

Other curses for keeping El Toro closed include very bad luck at the ballot box for the loud mouth NIMBY politicians who seek re-election or aspire for higher office. We now present an analysis of different races. Yes, this is more than a month after the most recent election. However, some races were very close and not certified until very recently.

Propositions:

Prop 1A - unfortunately it barely passed.
However, Orange County will be the very LAST area to get any stations built.
High Speed Rail is NOT a substitute for El Toro! Orange County passengers will still have to battle thick traffic to drive out of county to catch planes or trains.

Prop 8 - COWAN COWED!
Payback to Costa Mesa turncoat Libby Cowan!
Revenge is a dish best served cold!

Prop 10 - DEFEATED!
No bond money for Irvine! There will only be greater pressure upon Irvine taxpayers to finance Larry Agran's Great Pork! Surely bankruptcy will follow, where only an airport ran by L.A. can save the city.

Candidates:

Congress 46th District: - DEBBIE DOES DEFEAT!

This race featured staunch conservative and unwavering El Toro supporter Dana Rohrabacher defending his seat against the ultra-radical leftist Huntington Beach mayor and Measure W sponsor Debbie Cook. There are no other candidates out there with such stark contrasts. Since Obamamania swept the country, this was the Dems best and only chance to pull an upset in Orange County and take a congressional seat.

However, there was one major problem for Mrs. Debbie Cook. She wanted to represent Costa Mesa and Santa Ana Heights which overwhelmingly voted NO on Measure W! We Newport Mesa residents grow tired of hearing from the whiny class warfare activists from South County who want to shove Newport Mesa into the sea. Mrs. Cook chose to align herself with people who ruthlessly and bitterly hate our region. As a Newport Beach resident, I could not pull the lever for Dana and against Debbie. But I am quite pleased with her defeat.

The entire 46th district voted against Larry Agran's Great Pork scam. Besides being too liberal for the district, Cook's views on El Toro were clearly out of the mainstream. She will NEVER even get elected to so much as dogcatcher as long as her would be district includes any sizable portion of Newport Mesa.

Judge of the Superior Court Office No. 12 - MARSH MASHED!

Though Kermit Marsh was the more conservative judicial candidate, we are pleased to see him soundly defeated. He reportedly urged the OCRAA (Orange County Regional Airport Authority) to disband right after the misleading and fraudulent Measure W vote passed by a narrow margin in a low turnout election. The South County-appeasing surrender monkey gets crushed at the ballot box anyways!

COAST COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT Governing Board Member, Trustee Area 3
-RUIZ RUINED!


Larry Agran pal and fellow con artist could not even muster 37% of the vote to retain his trustee seat. It is rare when a trustee is so soundly defeated. However, Mr. Ruiz had it coming as his name regularly appeared on the anti El Toro propaganda trash spewing from Irvine that ended up in people's mailboxes. Like Debbie Cook, Armando Ruiz was also shown some payback for being such an anti El Toro puppet in an overwhelmingly pro El Toro district!

Fountain Valley - GUS GUTTED!

Incumbent Gus Ayer failed to retain his city council seat and in fact finished dead last! He was overconfident of re-election and instead spent his time working on fellow socialist Debbie Cook's failed congressional campaign. Looks like Mr. Ayer forgot to mind the store and got robbed of his own seat.

On the conservative OC Blog, Mr. Ayer was exposed as being too liberal for conservative Fountain Valley. In addition, Ayer was a Great Pork lackey. Fountain Valley voted 60-40 not to support Agran's Abomination. So Ayer was clearly out of step with his constituents and they showed him the door.

The People's republic of Irvine -
Ship of fools retained by gullible sheep!


We endorsed the Larry Agran slate and sure enough the loony Irvine voters retained them despite massive cost overruns and rampant mismanagement with the Great Pork. You see folks, when a city is so thoroughly infested with socialists and gay pride activists they do not care about what their leaders do! The lemmings so blindly tow the party line. Its only a matter of time before Irvine has a municipal bankruptcy and Los Angeles takes over El Toro!

CITY OF LAGUNA BEACH - Cheryl Shredded!

Strident anti El Toro NIMBY and ETRPA (El Toro Reuse Planning Authority) board member Cheryl Kinsman finishes dead last! Perhaps the voters of Laguna Beach have woken up and seen that they have been fleeced by the city of Irvine. Kinsman convinced the Lagunaites to finance Irvine's frivolous El Toro fight and all Laguna Beach residents got for it was a lame 27 acre park way over budget that puts taxpayers at risk. Unlike Irvine voters, they can actually see they have been hoodwinked by the Agranistas!

CITY OF LOS ALAMITOS - Parker Punked!

Ken Parker failed to retain his city council seat. He is listed as a Great Pork lackey by the Great Pork board. This did not go over terribly well in a city that voted 2-1 against Measure W. Plus the citizens of Los Alamitos are tired of hearing from self serving South County NIMBYs asking for the military to be kicked out of the reserve air base so that they can have cheap flights. At El Toro, the military is already gone. Use that place for cheap flights instead! That's a no brainer!

CITY OF TUSTIN - Jeffrey Jinxed!

Jeffrey Thompson failed to retain his council seat. That is because his name appeared on anti El Toro propaganda hit pieces spewing from Irvine. This especially does not play too well in a city where John Wayne flights go over.

Yes Tustin foolishly voted for Measure W. But at the time, they actually thought they would get a world class park and had no idea that South County NIMBYs would clamor for revenge with JWA 24/7, as opposed to simply being happy El Toro has been grounded.

You see folks, The Nasty Neurotic NIMBYs will never truly be happy until they can use JWA as a way to launch class warfare against Newport Beach. The angry left does not care about a world class park or about innocent bystanders from their scorched earth policy, they want revenge, and they want it now! The vitriolic mean spirited postings from the class warfare warriors on this site proves it!

MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT OF ORANGE COUNTY Director, Division 7 -
Whipple Whipped!

Former Laguna Niguel councilman and anti El Toro NIMBY Mike Whipple was defeated in his quest to become a waterboy! Oh what a shame! All that money and all those hours spent in futility railing against the twice approved El Toro International Airport and his fellow NIMBYs showed him no love at the ballot box. Perhaps, they have woken up and saw that he was just a lackey for the Agranistas and did not have their best interests in mind.
