No, he's probably been saying for a while, "let's find a time and get something with our planes near ground zero to show that have a presence and are working on the probelm." Then he picked out a day and told people to make it happen. They did it. Either way Axelrod doesn't have to have any involvement other than to say let's get something to show Obama can keep us safe from a 9/11 type of attack. The funny thing about this is, that there is nothing at all to support your version of things or mine.
We can only conjecture Deckard...Hopefully 2 things happen #1 transparency of who knew of this. #2 accountability of the person who authorized this. I'm not even sure if I want someones' head. But I think there needs to be a full media apology, coupled with those who knew of this if possible. Then, I think problem solved.
Seriously, ROX... what did basso mean? The guy pulls things out of his hat. I've already said I think whoever did this should be canned. Can basso go too?
it was just a joke Deck, a riff on Obama's typical "thrown under the bus" sign-off from the campaign and transition.
Then why don't you make a joke about Karl Rove, Susan Collins, and Michael Steele having a threesome? Surely you can come up with a joke from those three. A Roving eye, a man of Steele... damn, I can't come up with anything for Collins. I'd use Snowe, which would work, but I like Snowe.
basso, you can't say something was just a joke, and then say I was just making fun of a criticism, ie obama throwing people under the bus. then it isn't a joke, its a criticism like, haha, this thread from basso is just a political attack, haha no see I was just making fun of how basso can take a non political issue and make it political haha
so, some interesting insight from a poster on another forum , about the coordination that likely had to take place to make this happen. seems highly unlikely that Rham or Axelrod weren't involved in at least some of the planning: [rquoter]I don't know anything about the particulars of this particular fly-over, but having spent a lot of time flying into/out of KJFK and KEWR I know from experience that the Terminal area of the New York Air Route Traffic Control Center is one of, if not the busiest and most congested Air Traffic area on the planet. You can fly all the way across the country, casually making calls and politely asking for vectors direct to spots hundreds of miles down the road, but the instant you get switched to New York Center, it is immediately some ultra busy New York controller with a Bronx accent telling you to immediately turn here, descend now, maintain such and such a speed, traffic at your such and such O'clock, and "listen up people!", etc. What I mean by this is that this is a very demanding, congested environment, and you don't simply zip on up from Andrews and lackadaisically ask NY Center for a low fly by over downtown Manhattan for a photo-op, even if you are Air Force 1. This has to take massive coordination from a whole string of higher ups in the White House, The FAA, and The East Coast ATC hierarchy, and if any of our MSM talking heads or Gibbs try to paint this as anything other than that then I call BULLS__T! According to this 2009 report, "JFK, Newark Liberty and LaGuardia rank as the country’s most congested airports. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), only two-thirds of departures from these airports left on time in 2007, and even fewer arrivals met the schedule. Nearly three-quarters of nationwide delays are ultimately attributable to problems originating in the New York region’s airspace, which handles about one-third of the nation’s flights. These delays cascade and affect flights at airports throughout the global system." Simply go to Google and enter "Air Traffic Congestion" in New York" to find plenty of 2009 stories like this one, showing how traffic delays cost the economy 2.6 Billion in losses last year. This may make a 400 dollar haircut on the tarmac at LAX look cheap by comparison.[/rquoter]
This is awesome. Start out with "WH Military", then pump it up to Axelrod, now expand it to Rahm Emanuel. Proof is of course secondary, as you have none. Proof of what exactly you are trying to prove is also secondary. Which is good because you don't even know. Very soon the Illuminati will be involved. I would be remiss if I did not remind you all FOLKS, THIS IS REAL.
i have not represented i have any proof, although of course the WH Military advisor has admitted his involvement.
