Are you fracking kidding me??? The CIA papers on detainees, no problem. But pics that were specifically taken for a photo op , at a cost of over $30k for the fuel alone, THOSE are now top secret??

I miss Bill too!


( Over all cost was $300 K , and a similar photo shoot over the U.S. Capital was canceled. Gee, I wonder why. )

Obama Won't Release Air Force One New York Photos
May 05, 2009 10:09 AM EDT

The New York Post reported May 5 that photos of the president's plane flying low over New York will not be released to the public. An Obama aide is quoted as saying, "We have no plans to release them."

Most transparent government ever, right? I guess that only applies if being transparent is bad for Republicans or former President Bush. Only positive information for the current administration, please. No dissenters allowed.

New York Councilman Peter Vallone said: "The photos . . . are classified -- that's ridiculous."

Well, Councilman, it is indeed ridiculous, especially since the purpose of the flyover was to take publicity photos of the plane.

AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHA!!!!


Personally, I think it's bullshit. But I'm laughing my ass off at YOU for getting so apoplectic about it, and flailing around like your head's on fire.

Remember, if just anyone is allowed to see pix of AF1 and the Statue of Liberty, the terrorists win.

You assholes are the ones who wanted your "unitary executive" to have these kinds of powers. Don't bitch and whine when the next guy uses and abuses them as well.

Maybe for national security reasons they CAN'T release the photos. After all, theere might be some pictures in there that show the Veep's residence!

You're the asshole who voted for this sort of bullshit. That's YOUR ignorance and arrogance on display there, buddy.

Pics showing the Veep's residence? Why, most here on BOTH sides of the aisle would rather Biden fall than Obama.

And before you say a damn thing, YOU 1st brought up the idea of anything happening to them, not I.

Not half as funny as we find the right's hypocrisy.

By the way, you lied yet again. The photo's aren't "classified" and they're not "top secret" like you said they were. They're just not being released. So you lied.

Nope. I never voted for the whole "unitary executive" line of bullshit that you on the right were so enamored of when it was your idiot in the big chair. I never supported the Patriot Act, warrantless wiretaps, torture, or any of the other bullshit that you did and still do. That's all on you, numbnuts.

Actually, I didn't, but you're an idiot, so I don't expect you to be able to read and comprehend...

Personally, I'd rather see Cheney have his last heart attack before I'd want to see anything happen to Biden or Obama, but that's just me...

Show me in the article where it says they're "top secret".

Here's YOUR post and thread title, before you can go back and change them (and then try to blame someone else for changing them):

This is the crap we get, no matter what nation or political party in power.

Until we start arresting and jailing all politicians and royalty ACCUSED of crimes, regardless of party, this crap will continue to get worse, like the fall of the Roman Empire.

When a burgler or rapist is arrested, nobody asks what political party they are.

White House Military Office Director Louis Caldera still is reporting to work. Wasn't reprimanded, or sacked, in the least. I guess if no one was fired after 9/11, then nothing can get you removed from your job. ( Until you're VOTED out )

Rappy,

I'm responding EXACTLY the way you've been responding for years. Your take has always been, and will always be, that when YOU do it, it's different. Well, that's all I'm saying - it's "different" this time, because it's a Democrat who's doing it.

And refresh my memory, since you seem to have named yourself the resident expert on trolls - how many of my threads have been moved to Troll Country? How many of YOURS have been? Yeah, that's what I thought. Going by the numbers, you are clearly the troll here. And when I respond to you in a way that is EXACTLY as you respond to anyone else - often in the exact same words, mind you - you decide to call me a troll. Tell me, AuTrollster, what does that make you, hrmmm?

Oh, and by the way...

Well, on that point, at least, we remain in complete agreement.
Shouldn't that ass-hat at the very least have been assigned to oversee some military office in, say, Goose Bay, Newfoundland? Maybe oversee the U.S. outpost at the South Pole? I mean, if we're not going to shitcan his weak ass, can we at least assign him somewhere meaningless? Terra Haute, maybe?

Actually, it had EVERYTHING to do with you and your point of view. You started a trollish thread to do nothing but complain about someone else's alleged trollish behavior, and your thread was deemed to be trollish, so it was moved because you're a troll.

You had exactly 1 of your threads moved to troll country, which is exactly one more than I've had moved. That would make you a troll, or at least more of a troll than I am. That's verified.

But thanks for playing.

Nice try. That was no more MY thread than a clue is something YOU have. 21 post after my last one, which means 21 times some idiot bumped the thread up w/ some meaningless, irrelevant bit of go se , which means 21 times you gaggle of girls carried on w/ your intended plan.

Yes, it was a show of incompetence. And to find something as arrogant and callous as that, you'd have to go back all the way to... well, the invasion of Iraq comes to mind. Or the drowning of New Orleans. Take your pick - either one gets you a 4000-plus body count of dead Americans.



How many did the AF1 stunt kill, exactly?

Why is this an ongoing issue again? Who cares?

I'm just a tad more concerned with:

Taliban getting Pakistani nukes....really, what exactly IS the contingency for that?

Israel deciding at some point the time that it is necessary to attack Iran. What will the US and world do?

Iran now attacking settlements across Iraq border. Who's going to do anything about that now? We'll be outta there soon.

AIG getting $140 billion, then LYING about the BONUS payments with OUR tax dollars....first $120 million, now reported at $545 million. A half a Billion in bonuses for creeps that bankrupted their company?? Jesus Christ, what the fuck!? All approved by Tax-Cheat In Charge Geithner, nice.

Mainstream Media demonization of anyone opposing Obama's policies. Stimulus corruption, ala John Murtha's nephew getting millions of pork dollars.

North Korea's plan to test fire more nuclear missiles. China's pending invasion of democratic Taiwan.

etc etc etc ....so that's why I really could care less about this Air Force One blunder.

Bush was responsible in exactly the same way Obama was responsible for the "AF1" blunder. It's your contention that Obama personally set this up and ordered it, and then personally ordered the pix "classified" "top secret". If you're going to lay responsibility for every single thing that happens under Obama's leadership at Obama's feet, you have to be willing to accept that Bush had the exact same responsibilities.

Please look at a map for once in your life - note how far New York City is from Washington, D.C. Note also that the plane was NOT Air Force One, since the President was not aboard.

So how is this all Obama's bad, again?

This should be good.

Ripper, you'll have to talk to Rappy about that. He set the rules by which the President is solely responsible for every single thing that happens while he's in office. Maybe he can clarify for you why Obama is responsible for the actions of others, but Bush never was. I find it a laughable double-standard myself, but I'm just trying to play by the latest RapRules™.

Gosh, thanks for giving me almost an entire half hour to reply before declaring the thread dead and yourself the winner of the interwebs!

And what is the point of this thread anyway, if not simply more pointless Obama Derangement Syndrome from the unhinged, unseated, irrelevent right?

Maybe they just got it wrong. Was it incompetence? Maybe, or maybe nobody ever considered a giant plane painted like Air Force One and a couple F-16s flying around would scare people. Arrogent, callous...hardly.

All of the elements, F-16s, Air Force One (alternate), New York City, and the Statue of Liberty are recognizable symbols of American culture, power, greatness, and liberty. I'm sure the fella that thought up having them all pose for pictures was not thinking "gee, I wonder if some people will panic".

Kinda reminds me of the 'War of the Worlds' scare...it was just a radio play.

This falls squarely in the realm of unintended consequeces.

That means we all get to poke a little fun at the President and then move on.

Nothing sinister about this.

kwickie,

Neither Katrina or 9/11 were Bushes doing on ANY level as flying AF1 over lower Manhattan. It's silly even for anyone to even respond to your absurd, trollish claim.

I suppose you'd need to know if he was a Republican or a Democrat before you'd be able to make that call, eh?


By the way, did you just compare Rappy to a third-grader? That's great!

Wow, you're dumber than I gave credit for in the first place. I responded to your post, I gave ZERO credence to your trollish claim, what so ever. Stop trying to waste everyone's time.
