Feel free to turn the music off but how could the Air Force pull this stupid stunt? Loads of peeps runinng out of their office buildings and standing in the streets of Manhattan...all they wanted to was leave. Still shaking my head on the complete stupidity of it.

Apparently Obama is taking the blame for it as he approved it. Somebody wasn't thinking obs.:-5

Ya, you can see why people would be a little freaked out, particularly with the jet fighter in escort, can also look like a chase.

I very much doubt it was him - it'd be rather beneath him! It seems to've been Louis Caldera.

Well whoever it was didn't use their brain!:-5 The Mayor of NYC is really p.o.'d...the airforce is saying "we called the mayor but told him not to tell the public, etc.". The Mayor is saying nobody called him. Idiots!:-5

Correct. There's a bit in the Bild magazine, as well as lots and lots elsewhere:

Air Force One New York flight scare: White House apologises for 'Air Farce One' - - Barack Obama furious - Bild.de

The mayor does indeed seem to be hopping.

Like the public wasn't going to notice a low flying giant plane flying around?

:mad: It's all over the news & both sides (repubs & Libs) are already involved...not surprised.

your right, it would not have been Obama's decision.:rolleyes:

-This happens all the time as the aircraft must fly low to reach certain destinations as all aircraft's have to.

- but the public is always told ahead of time for Air Force One, so not to panic.

What assholes to do something like that:mad:

People are stressed out enough with daily living. They don't need to see stupid stunts.

Geeze, after September 11th, I am still vigilant about observing people around me and the sky above me. It was such an eerie feeling not to have planes flying in the sky above me for days. I felt like I was in a Steven King horror movie:rolleyes:

The Obama administration is acting like 9-11 never happened. This fits that pattern.

Clint that's crap I just heard Obama on the radio saying "It was a mistake" and apologising for it. Lets just say someone is going to get their butt kicked I think.

Very insensitive ......or maybe they are guaging the responce?

If they just wanted to take a few photographs, couldn't they have just Photoshopped the planes in? :p

you are so wrong, apologies have been made by Obama....and others.:-5:-5

and I do not even live in the States.

all aircraft's fly low to get to their destinations.......as we all know.

AIR FORCE ONE has to do the same, and they notify the public when doing this as to not frighten anyone.......but this time the FBI forgot.

Yea, that is what scares me. What other things might have the FBI forgotten? Can they just get away with "We forgot"? How convienent is that.

Obama apologising..........Again...........Whats new?

He is just one big ol apology after another ever since he came on the scene:

His motto should be "apologize and then blame a staffer"

The Obama administration, completing its first full week, wasted no time getting priorities in order. First, issue formal apologies to the world, and then begin advancing massive, intrusive government at home.

The president chose Arab television, Al Arabiya, to give his first sit down interview. He took the opportunity to confirm the long held Arab view that the real problem is America and President Obama apologized on our behalf.

For the FBI..very convenient.

Yes, he embarrassed the US to the world imo. We were laughingstocks to the rest of the populace.:-5

Odie · Post by **Odie** » Fri May 01, 2009 6:20 am

photos are taken quite often, but as said, people are warned in advanced when AIR FORCE ONE is going to be flying over their own area by the FBI.

.......The FBI forgot to let the public know!:-5:-5

Do I have faith in the FBI.........NOPE, NEVER HAVE!
