Air Force One: The $328,835 Picture


So this is the picture. You know the one that frightened thousands of New Yorkers and others. Apparently the picture of AF1 taken in front of Mount Rushmore was too Republican so we needed a Democratic version taken in front of the Statue of Liberty. At a mere $328,835 and the job of the White House Military Director we can all rest easy now that the photo pages in the White House handbooks are updated. It seems that Mr. Oblahblahblahma does not remember when this was discussed with him, but he sure was furious about it later.

Hey I'm all for airplane flights of any kind at any time. The bigger the plane the better. The lower said plane is to the ground the better for me to see it, but any idiot who allowed a jumbo jet to fly around NYC should be strung up by his fingernails. Its sick and a form of psychological torture. Now said official has "resigned". To me its not the money, but the stupidity. Keeping it largely a secret was classic democrat. Sort of like Pelosi getting a Boeing 757 to fly back and forth to California at her whim. Add to that Al Gore and his Boeing 707 and you have the 3 Stooges reincarnated....
