Is the Statue of Liberty Fly-by Administration Stupidity?
" – An Air Force fighter jet and one of President Barack Obama's official planes on Monday flew low over the Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan repeatedly in an approved photo opportunity that startled some New Yorkers who have memories of the September 11 attacks."

This terrifies people, causes the stock-market to drop... and NYPD said federal authorities told them not to disclose the information ahead of time but to direct inquiries to the Federal Aviation Administration.
The FAA called it "an approved military photo op." The White House declined to comment.
IS THIS INSANE ?? The President needs a photo for his CHRISTMAS CARD ??
Edward makes me laugh... NOT PC I know, but still !!
Amusing that "Bush:Biggest Dumbass Ever" and "zaphod73@att.net" thinks there is nothing wrong... YET, if President Bush had done that, he'd have been crucified !!
SERIOUSLY folks... the KEY here is that President Barry "Transparency in Government" Obama had a photo-op that terrorized thousands, and had the FAA prohibit the Police from notifying those who might be effected
We now have NYC Mayor Blumberg on the record as "FURIOUS" with this "stunt"

How much money will Obama-tard waste on photo ops and aviation fuel? When do libtards FINALLY see that this man is a moron and a socialist? He is insensitive, arrogant, narcissistic, self aggrandizing, ego maniacal, and Absolutely a sorry excuse for a human being. The worst president this country has ever had (even worse than Carter which is saying something).

It just proves that Obama has no character and is senseless.
