Isn't the Air America radio cruise a little out of touch, or am I wrong? |
|
I see that they push this cruise every year to smooze with Air America radio hosts where you can wine and dine.
I can be wrong here, and have never been the type to tell people they can't enjoy themselves, but isn't that a little off message for what the "progressive" (LIBERAL!!!) movement is supposed to be about?
Like I said, I'm not tossing a grenade here. Maybe just a pebble at their window.

1. people are allowed to vacation. Progressive does not equal Puritan. |
|
I just hope they don't get that nasty virus that occasionally strikes cruise ships.

3. Is the OP referring to the environmental impact? |
|
Help us out by telling us how you think it might be off message.
I wouldn't go because of the virus thing.

5. Times are tough. We are in a serious time of crisis. Let's go on a cruise!!!! |
|
Like I said, I'm not married to this concept that it's off message. It just strikes me as a little odd.
But as stated on here, it's probably good $$$$ for them, so.....

13. Isn't the K-Love Friends & Family Cruise also wrong then? |
|
K-Love's a supposed non-profit organization. They have an agenda to push too, and they need to raise funds.
I have absolutely no problem in either of these organizations organizing and promoting essentially a vacation package to see some "celebs".
Mark.
