My first thought when I saw this headline was that it was an April Fool's joke. But nope, multiple outlets, one day off.


Republicans are so ridiculous. WTF!?


This is fantastic trolling in response.


Can congress stop wasting time with this BS and actually work on doing something productive. Both political parties are making a mockery of the US government by playing stupid games putting bills to floor about naming airpots and wastewater treatment plants.

John Foster Dulles was a Great American, as was his brother. And they worked for a great President. Who didn't like Ike? Keep the airport's name as it is.

It’s not named for Ike. It’s named for a guy whose claim to fame is overthrowing elected governments in places like Iran— that’s worked out really well for us. 🙄

Pretend that the airport is named after Johnny's brother, Allen. He was director of the post-WWII CIA and was responsible for coups in Iran, Guatemala, and the failed Bay of Pigs.

Actually the overthrow of Mohammad Mosaddegh worked out well for the US and Iran. Under Shah Reza Pahlavi's White Revolution, Iran was doing very well playing the Russians off the United States and educating women. It all went to pieces when the Shah pushed the mullahs too far and they left Qom to establish a theocracy. The mullahs were smart enough to stop educating Iranian women and now about 75% of the physicians in Iran are women and they work in many other professional fields. If there is ever a revolution in Iran, it will be a Pink Revolution led by women sick and tired of wearing chadors.

We can then open up a strip club to replace the old United express gates. So cool

Time for regime change in Iran again. And Venezuela and Cuba. They are all evil governments.

Naming it after GW would have (and still would) caused confusion with DCA. There is now at least one airport that incorporates the name of Abe Lincoln — and a few other with a city name of Lincoln.

I’m a firm believer in generally not naming something after someone until 50+ years after that person’s death.


Why not name it after: RFK, MLK, J. Edgar Hoover, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Northern VA, Virginia, or Frederick Douglass


Why would you name it after RFK


John Warner would be the most suitable.


Agree.


He always flew Liz Taylor into Dulles

Exactly !!!

The only way something should be named after someone is if the person or their estate pays the majority of money for it.
