Sen. Jason Rapert, the bullying preacher of Conway, continues his wild assault on reason by filing today his promised bill to force the renaming of the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport.

Here’s the bill. It’s rigamarole, but the definition would make it illegal for the airport to be named after Clinton because it, among others, was built with public funds and the Clintons were living at the time the airport was renamed for them. The definition fits Hillary Clinton as well as Bill Clinton because she also held elected federal office, one of the disqualifying elements. Passenger fees, concessions and federal money operate the airport by the way. As a matter of state law, it’s governed by a commission appointed by the Little Rock City Board. The commission approved the name change almost four years ago.
