Many Republicans also voted no, but for a different reason. They said it was
too expensive a bill to pass when the country has $17 trillion in debt.

2015-05-22 20:03:29
生活里天天充滿着美好充盈着愛。
我是達美航空公司15號班機的機組人員，2001年的9月11日從德國的法蘭克福機場飛越
大西洋，目的地是美國的亞特蘭大。
忽然，機艙內的布簾都拉了起來，我被叫到駕駛艙去見機長。在那兒，幾個機組人員都
面露嚴肅。機長給我一張紙條，這是從亞特蘭大機場辦公室發出來的訊息，上面寫著：
「所有私人航空公司飛往美國的航道全部關閉，請盡速降落在最近的機場，並請告知你
的降落目的地。」
沒有一個人對此訊息有隻字片語，我們都知道事態的嚴重性。我們需要立刻找到一個陸
地降落，機長決定最近的機場是離我們400英里遠的甘德, 紐芬蘭。
機長要求加拿大航空交通控制中心核准路線的改變，我們沒有被質疑而獲得即刻的核准
，後來我們才知道為何我們的要求毫不遲疑的被核准。
當我們正準備降落時，另一個訊息從亞特蘭大傳來，告訴我們在紐約地區有恐怖行動。
幾分鐘後，我們知道是劫機事件。
尚未降落前，我們決定跟乘客撒個白謊，說是一個小小的機械問題需要降落在最近的機
