$328,000 Plus
In a yet another of a continuing series of amazing events under President Obama’s watch, someone thinks it is a good idea to burn $328,000 plus for a photo op that has the additional advantage of sending New York’s financial district into a panic. Can’t imagine how someone wouldn’t think that seeing a jumbo jet flanked by one of our fighters wouldn’t cause people in New York to panic, can you? Can’t imagine what wold have happened if this had occurred during the evil Bush’s Presidency, of course, no one in that time would have been stupid enough to allow it to happen either. Has anyone in the green party calculated the carbon footprint of this obviously critical operation? How is it that President Obama didn’t know it was going to happen? So much for being Commander and Chief. Add this to hiring a tax evading treasury secretary and a Homeland Security Chief who doesn’t know where 9-11 terrorists came from and we continue to see examples of the good hands people who are watching our backs in our current ruling party. Just the first stellar 100 days. It’s getting gooder and gooder.
That was an incredibly dumb move, but the way Obama handled it was a great contrast to the previous administration. Imagine a president who actually comes out an admits it was the wrong thing to do and takes responsibility for it, even if he had nothing to do with it! I haven’t seen anything like that in 8 years.
And do you really think that a president knows about every minute detail in every part of his administration, or perhaps some authority might actually be delegated?
No need to email me about this, thanks.

Oh yeah no one in the Bush administration would have allowed that to happen.. DUH do you remember that during his administration they flew planes into 2 buildings when the FBI had advanced warning of the attack from field supervisors who told FBI-HQ in no uncertain terms they were trying to stop someone from taking a plane and flying it into the WTC that’s pretty specific Intel to ignore yet they did… always with the partisan whining, I mean I am no Obama fan but to compare this goof to the Bush administrations Goof of ignoring the warnings from the FBI and CIA about attacks, that is beyond the pale. Remember that after the 2nd plane hit the 2nd tower it was almost an hour before the Pentagon was hit. In all that time the Johnny on the spot Bush administration couldn’t defend Head Quarters! That’s truly incompetent. And makes this little fiasco look like nothing. Which is what it was, nothing. No one died, yes some stupid money was spent but that what all politicians do spend money stupidly. Much as I disdain Obama he has done nothing yet that compares to the monumental F’ ups of the Bush administration.
