I cant even Imagine what was going through the minds of all the people that saw a commercial jet and a fighter jet flying so low in Manhattan. Oh shit here we go again :shock: I bet some heads are going to roll over this one.

I think that is certain...the guy who has been apologizing in the press will probably get the axe soon.0

why the FUCK does air force one need to be photographed flying around new york?
and what brain dead shithead thought it was a good idea to keep it a secret?
seriously, who thinks like this?0 -
I've heard people like Bloomberg say they had no idea it was going to be going on, and then members of the NYPD and NYFD who knew it was going on. Sounds like some people in both DC and New York dropped the ball.0

Mindblowing, isn't it? After all they do to "protect" us, no one even thought to give an ounce of warning that this was going to happen?0
-
See, I don't believe that it was for a photo op. I think the media is seriously pulling the wool over the public's eyes who believe everything they hear.
Something else is going on here, and if the NYPD knew about it, then they're part of the big gov't secrecy too. Watch this whole thing get swept under the rug and never mentioned in the media again...0 -

the arrogance astounds me0 -
Someone care to explain what everyone is talking about in here?0

I wonder how much this cost us ? I heard air force 1 cost about $64,000 an hour to operate. :shock: I could be wrong though.0

I would have been freakin out. What the hell did they think was going to happen? Oh look there's a commercial jet flying around Manhattan no big deal :shock:0 -

Oh man here we go :roll:0 -
air force one was flown over NY (?) I think, through restricted air space. No one knew about it, not even the mayor. gov't buildings were evacuated, general panic, mayhem ensued.Sludge Factory wrote:Someone care to explain what everyone is talking about in here?
The reason given by the media was that it was for a photo op, to see what it would look like.
???
which may be the strangest cover story i have ever heard.0 -

Those in charge getting in trouble for wrongdoing? You do live in America right? You do follow politics right?0 -
I do think it was a giant fuck-up. I also think that ass that authorized it should be canned, and I think he will.
I think it was a fuck-up for the simple fact that while they got authorized and got approved to run the "mission", they forgot the fact that the public might not know about it.
Big-time "doh"!
Either way, the guy needs to go!0 -

I heard over $300K. That's our new administration at work, folks....spending our tax dollars when they could just purchase a postcard like the common folk.The only people we should try to get even with...
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.0 -

Yup. It's THIS administration that is wildly "spending our tax dollars". Not the previous ones that have been out of control, but THIS one.0 -

I thought people were voting for CHANGE??
Now you're excusing bad behavior because previous administrations acted that way?
Anyone defending this photo op debacle - from execution to cost - has their head in the sand.The only people we should try to get even with...

No one is excusing this. It is really stupid. I could photoshop up a scene like that in 10 minutes and have it look just as real. However, it's even more stupid to start pointing fingers now like this is the straw that will break the camels back.0
