Where were those people running to?

Anywhere but where the plane is moving too. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were tunneled with PTSD.

Louis Caldera's stupidity is a national insult. Such lack of judgement makes him extremely unreliable in any position as a decision maker.

NYTimes:

Louis E. Caldera, director of the White House Military Office, who served in the Clinton administration as secretary of the Army, said in a statement:

"Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision. While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, it’s clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused."

Why do we need photos of Air Force One over NY in the first place?

I understand from the article that this was the spare plane. So what is this or the first choice plane called when Obama is elsewhere?


AirForce None.

Not shown in the video: hordes of 9/11 nutjobs searching every skyscraper in Manhattan for hidden explosives at the same time.


Not shown in the video: dozens of right-wing fuckwits hopping up and down and hoping the jet hits the Chrysler Building so they can preach to us more about the benefits of torture.

Things To Do If I Am President:

-Find a Vice President capable of amusing gaffes that rival even Ford and Quayle
-Buzz Jimmy from the Bronx in Air Force One
-Try my best to fix some of this mess

If the Pres isn't on board, then it's not called Air Force One.

I'd say this was truly in BAD TASTE!
There is no reason whatsoever why they couldn't have notified the press ahead of time of this. It's not like a president was on board so there was no security concerns.

I agree, what a *terrible idea.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I could have photoshopped Air force One with the Statue of Liberty for significantly less.
