    It could have been. Just like 9/11 could have been.

    AF1 is a janitor in the WH. Why then should the O even respond?

    From your link:

    The director of the White House military office, Louis Caldera, took the blame a few hours later. One of the planes was a 747 that is called Air Force One when used by the president.

    "Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision," Caldera said. "While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, it's clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused."

    When told of the flight, President Barack Obama was furious, a White House official said on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.

    However, when the president surrounds himself with people that have such monumental lapses in judgement...does that not speak poorly of the president as a judge of character and/or aptitude?

    That has been the achilles of several commanders in chief...and it just might be Obama's.

    Your statemen injects partisanship where there should be none. Even the dems in New York are furious.

    President Barack Obama was furious because....

    He got caught doing a very dumb thing. But, he "has a gift" and Americans love him, regardless....what a jerk, and that is being nice.

    I am proud to be an American and want to do my part. I will therefore return all my deposit bottles to the redemption center (good for the environment) and use the money to buy Photoshop and donate it to the White House Press Office. Then they can safely produce pictures of Air Force 1 in front of any background without startling the general public.

    I'm not quite ready to declare President Obama's administration a failure over this unfortunate faux pas. It has been under 100 days. There will be ample opportunity in the years to come.

    so you believe obama doesn't really run the country?
    This is valid, wasting of taxpayer moneis, a flyby over ny and ground zero, terrifying americans who thought they needed to run for their lives; is it my office building today.
    Yeah, quite valid.
    But approved by worshippers all across the country.

    it's been said on this board obama does no wrong and has been crucified, people here agree with his abortion views, his view homosexuality is not immoral, if that isn't worship, I don't know what is.

    Let me see...

    The economy is in the toilet...and we need more pictures of Air Force 1?

    What a collosal waste of taxpayers money!

    That's in addition to being idiotic.

    You have a warped view of what a chief executive does. As you choose to ignore, I already pointed out that the POTUS doesn't personally oversee every thing the government does. And remember, we have three branches of government. A President is not a dictator. He also doesn't do every government job. Do you think he comes to your local Social Security office to plunge a stopped up toilet? :laugh:

    he can prove your point by firing some people.

    I suppose they'll buzz the pentagon then. What's next, the field in Pennsylvania? Something sinister, perhaps? This just proves his narcissism. There are plenty of photographs and videos of him all over the place in every news outlet and stock photographs to photoshop without wasting more taxpayer money. But his ego apparently knows no bounds and I really think there is more to it (sinister) than just his inflated arrogance and ego. Time will tell what he is really up to even as his defenders follow him like lemmings into a black hole.

    The stupidity, arrogance and extravagance of this is a clear reminder of the incompetency of our current administration. It's borderline criminal.

    That's good. I believe we agree that Jesus is Lord too.

    Unfortunately I am not worth fellowshipping with because I'm a "liberal". Don't see that in the Bible but you have the right to be wrong.

    I've never said that Obama does no wrong. I do not agree with his pro-choice stance but he has the right to believe what he wants about something that is not against the law. I don't know what his view on homosexuality is but what does it matter? I could care less. One's view on homosexuality does not qualify or disqualify them from being President.

    I'm sorry but none of what you said can rationally be deemed "worship". I don't know anyone that worships Obama anymore than you conservatives would have appreciated being told you were worshipping Bush.

    He's also been called the Antichrist, a Nazi, a communist and a socialist. He's destroying America. He's done absolutely nothing right. he's view by everyone who voted for him as their king and messiah. You seem to hold to this last view.
