The Coalition of the Swilling

I loved Charlie Gibson's comment last night, after reporting that Caldera 'didn't realize' the confusion and panic it would create: "Ya think?"

I just don't understand. These chuckleheads have *nothing* to do but update file photos? Isn't there, like, a war somewhere they can focus on?

The ABC website said Caldera was called into a meeting about it.
"It didn't sound like a fun meeting," the White House official says.

Ya think?

If Obama is "furious" over this idiocy, it's because his administration is -- once again -- demonstrating it's collective and massive cluelessness.

It's just evidence of Special Snowflake-dom.

OF COURSE they are the only ones who matter. OF COURSE it doesn't matter that people are inconvenienced, frightened, or otherwise. They NEEDED a new file photo!

There's nothing wrong with updating a file photo. It's a new plane, after all. It's just idiotic to have done this over New York City. B. Hussein is from the midwest, they could have chosen the St. Louis arch or the grand canyon, or any number of other places.

It's almost like they don't want to waste any crisis and are doing their best to create more.

Someone had it in their fool head that anytime that plane goes someplace has to be a secret, whether the president is on board or not. It's not like all the reporters they always have aboard are trustworthy to keep secrets.

Bah. It's a 747. It looks exactly the same as the other 747 except for the number on its tail.

B. Hussein is from the midwest, they could have chosen the St. Louis arch or the grand canyon, or any number of other places.

Countdown to Slublog's photoshop of AF1 flying over Mt. Kilimunjaro in three... two...

Okay, the warranty expires tomorrow - could we please just put him back in the original shipping container and send him back to Chicago?

Agree with Mr. Bingley. Plus they have photos up the wazoo of this thing already.

There has to be a naked political motivation for this. They specifically wanted a photo of this with the Statue of Liberty. Why? I see that showing up in his 2012 campaign blitz. Obama-Statue of Liberty-presidential leadership-vote for me.

Well, scaring a few New Yorkers, who mostly voted for the marxist anyway, is a lot less of a concern than a marxist ideologue in the white house, a lunatic socialist in the house, and a filibuster proof senate.

We are fricking doomed. There is no way we can possibly undo the damage that will result to our freedom and prosperity after they create their dream of a Soviet Socialist Republic of America.

Given how often The Won claimed 'distraction' during the campaign, I wonder what he was trying to distract us from this time.

I thought the limo was new, didn't realize the plane was new, too. Even so, Photoshop would have saved a lot of New Yorkers' nerves.

Maybe this was another effort to spend us to prosperity.

So it never occurred to these knuckleheads to take the plane's picture on the tarmac instead of some barnstorming action shot?

Yeah, wouldn't worry about that much, he's just showing us a picture of one of the few working machines when the 2012 storm comes (here) and how much you want to bet that once our sun regains it's flaming testicles of doom and obliterates civilization The One will be onboard that EMP resistant batcave?

If ya'll believe that whopper I've got a bridge to sell ya...DIDN'T THESE MORONS EVER HEAR OF PHOTO SHOP?? You KNOW even THEY know what that is, so, one asks, just exactly WHY would they perpetrate such an act of domestic terrorism against the American people?

Simple: they want to remind everyone they can do whatever they want and that they don't give one red rat's patootie whether anyone cares, likes it or gets the bejeezus scared out of them. Cuz THEY WON. Yeah, right. And pigs fly. Oh, wait...
