Pork barrel Bull shit at it's finest

This is a real plane....looks pretty cool doesn't it?


Alaska Airlines unveiled a new paint job on a Boeing 737, making the plane look like a giant salmon; dubing it the "Salmon-Thirty-Salmon," . This paint job took nearly a month to complete, and cost roughly $500,000. Not to shabby considering Alaska Airlines is one of the few carriers that continues to show profittt.

But then again it's no big deal to their bottem line, don't think for a second that they actually paid for this.

This paint job was paid for by the American taxpayer.

This is pork barrel spending at it's finest! The official excuse is to promote the Alaskan fishing industry.
