OMG they spent over a 1/4 mil. to do a photo op. of AF-1 flying low over NYC. What a bunch of idiots, not only are they just throwing our money away for nothing but they scared the hell out of New York! If this is how they are spreading the wealth then they should have been dropping money out the damn plane. What a joke this administration is turning into. Have they forgotten what happened in NY? I guess so since everything we were trying to accomplish is being made a mockery, yeah real smart flying a large jet with a military escort unannounced at 1000 ft through the city.

But HE did it for us  :love:  because HE knows how much we long to be near HIM.

Resistance is futile...enter the hive!

























Thing is...the pecker-head won't even release the photos now...he just wants the incident to be forgotten.

Yup appearantly the smartest group of "leaders" we've ever had have never heard of photo shop...


One thing to think about though is what else was news that happened that day that wasn't front page news because everyone covered the plane story.... 
Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??

As a citizen of Arizona...I completely backed her nomination for DHS head...until, that is, she actually quit being our governor. Now she's just another dumb &@!t.

That says AMERICAN SOLDIERS ARE TERRORISTS

I understand completely. I am on the list too! My point was...she's out of Phoenix now! I know it's totally mercenary (I wonder if that word will open up another page in my file) of me, but...the nation's loss is our gain!

so this was a choreographed publicity shoot.. i'm at a loss for words, yeah it is change, mccain wouldn't have pulled some stupid crap like that

read the article?  It even says that the sole purpose of the flight was TO UPDATE THE "OFFICIAL" PHOTO!!!   :shake:  We just spent 36x,xxx dollars on updating a photo?   :shakehead:

Yeah, there's nothing that we could have done better with the dough.

sorry, at 1000 ft, looking into the sky, markings are oftentimes difficult to discern.  Not only that, but how many of your average people can look at a military plane, and say "Oh, thats a US F16."   All they saw were two planes, flying way too low.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

Their blatant waste of OUR money is infuriating. Problem is that we will be paying off this guy's experiment for generations to come. I've basically given up on the idea of retiring, as there is no way I'll ever be able to save enough to cover the insane inflation that is going to occur once this recession starts to lift.  Just the interest alone on the "recovery" (read: bailout) money is more than some states GNP. It will take up such a large percentage of our tax dollars that the other important things will have to be cut in order to service the debt.

Glad we got a new, wonderful picture for such a good price. We really needed that. At least a couple people had some job security for a day or two.
