   So the photo they release will be one of Soros sitting in the presidents chair surrounded by Hooters girls with the Statue of Liberty out the window right?
   I know only in my most fervent dreams. The photo will probably be one taken in the pilots compartment.

   Like the Clintons renting out the Lincoln bedroom in return for campaign donations, it wouldn’t be a bit surprising if the Obama’s gave rides on the presidential 747 in exchange for big fat checks to his next campaign.

    I am quite sure they will not release the photo of Hussein sitting in the pilots seat with the Captains hat on his head and that big ugly grin on his face. Beltway Bob was probably in the co-pilots seat. Big MO? She was in the back of the plane hosting a cocktail party.

    The music video for the song takes place on an airplane, parodying the movie Airplane!. Two airline mechanics (played by Tenacious D) hide “World Domination brand ‘Erotic’ Sleeping Powder”[1] in the coffee-maker, which ends up incapacitating everyone who drinks the coffee. The band, having avoided the coffee, finds themselves forced to land the plane.

    I have too much respect for the professionalism of the Air Force, especially The 1st Airlift Squadron, 89th Airlift Wing(Operating Presidential flights)to believe that they did anything untoward in this farce. They merely provided the aircraft(which, incidentally, probably wasn’t AF1, since that is only used when POTUS is actually aboard – if Obama WAS on board, that just deepens the controversy).

    Just a thought: if you are escorting the airplane when it is Air Farce One, your duty is to protect the airplane and all occupants, and keep a sharp lookout for anything the least bit suspicious. You have to be ready to respond to any emergency. You DO NOT have time to take a pretty picture out of the window (or otherwise) of the pretty plane flying by the pretty Lady Liberty.

    Any enemy would not necessarily know if it was occupied by THE ONE or not, but the escort must be ready to defend at all times and at all costs.

    So what they are now admitting to is that the President of the United States now has now idea what goes on with, on, or near the aircraft that he uses as a personal charter for dining out and such?

    The Obama Administration is making it their official stance that the plane that they have been calling “Air Force One”, even though they state that bHo had not been on the plane at the time, was taken out for some sort of joy ride without the President of the United States, the Vice President, the Chief of Staff, or anyone else in his Cabinet knowing anything about it?

    They hold this stance all the way to the extent that they are doing what they are calling an “Official Review of the Incident”?

    And the MSM is remaining completely silent on this?

    My God…what the hell is happening to my country and in the White House? What happened to all those “In depth investigative journalists” that were swarming all over Washington D.C. for over 8 years?

    For $300K we only get one photo from The One? That sounds like the way our inefficient government has always worked. I was expecting change. Personally, I’d rather pay $300K for a hammer. At least a hammer can be used to make something useful.

    But since we paid it, maybe we should put the photo on a T-shirt that says, “All I got for my $300K was this lousy T-shirt.”

    Don’t wingers get tired of hyperventilating? This blog today has one breathless screed on the evil Obama administration taking a few days to release some publicity photos. Now you’ve turned to screeching about their decision to release them.

    First it was the most secretive administration since Hitler, now its a ruthless flip flop. People might listen to you more if you stuck to real issues rather than making yourselves laughing stocks over and over.

    Aren’t you busy wasting taxpayer money (or parents’ tuition money) teaching college kids how to do fake math?

    The only one hyperventilating is you, Math Dude. It’s really too bad you don’t have a funny bone. It got broken long ago taking yourself way too seriously.

    Get over yourself.

    Ditto, emjem24, on your comment to LGM (alias putz). Obama could strangle someone on live TV, and LGM would make some snarky comment about how “wingers” made Obama do it. It’s time for us to start using “left wingers” wherever and however we can to get it into the American lexicon. Keep drinking that sick Kool-Aid, long gone man.
