what's up with the feel-good Boeing ads?
Advertisements [?]
You know, the ones that show those uniformed service heroes - all of them as attractive as professional models, if you get my drift - and how Boeing is keeping our chirren and families safe (while they show missiles whirring out of their silos, no doubt en route to someone ELSE's chirren and families).

Why this barrage of Boeing ads? It's not as though we can afford to put a B767 or missile system on our Visa cards. Is it directed at their shareholders? Or do they fear being "Halliburtoned", and the target of taxpayer rage when we find our pockets picked and the proceeds going directly to Boeing? I don't get it.
