The Capital of the Fifth-Largest Economy in the World!
When Congressman Doug Ose isn't cussing up a storm, he's excited about JetBlue:
Just a week after it launched nonstop service between Sacramento and New York, JetBlue Airways on Wednesday said it will add another nonstop to the East Coast, this one to Washington, D.C.
The daily flight to Dulles International, beginning May 4, will be the first nonstop between Sacramento and the nation's capital since United Airlines pulled the plug on nonstop service in October 2001....
Rep. Doug Ose, the Republican who represents the Sacramento area's 3rd District, is thrilled by all the hours the new service could save him in his commute between the two capitals.
If his duties in Congress keep him past 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays - the day he usually returns to the district - Ose said he has to catch a red-eye to San Francisco and then either rent a car or have someone pick him up for the ride back to the Sacramento area.
"This kind of service would be a boost to me," Ose said. "I've always thought there was significant business between the nation's capital and the capital of the fifth-largest economy in the world."
I don't care what it's the capital of - I still hate the Kings. They're a bunch of - wait, has Ose's bill passed yet?
