I am beginning to believe that the fly-over of NY City yesterday was probably to impress a few special people on board. Could it have been Michelle taking herself and friends on a midday jaunt? I bet if the passenger list is made public this story will get very interesting. Sorry for the vanity.

someone needs to do a FOIA request

Your theory fits the Obamas behavior so far.

We'll never see it. It's under guard in Nairobi, right next to the birth certificate.

[Bullish]

I thought the exact same thing when I first heard about this. Somebody was on board for a sightseeing flight.

Maybe Michelle and the girls?

[Frantzie]

No it was to impress his handlers in Riyad and it was a victory dance. Back on 9/11 we wiped out the biggest buildings at the heart of the infidels and zionists. We financed that for around $1 million and cost America trillions.

8 years later after spending around $500 million of the $800 million needed - we control and OWN America.

Start the Islamization and the march on towards the global caliphate.

[Ticonderoga34]

Your theory makes more sense than various explanations that we have gotten out of the White House.

What was 0mama’s schedule yesterday?

[Patriot777]

It’s just like a bunch of drug-infested thugs stealing someone’s Ferrari and going for a joy ride across the state.

Has anybody provided a satisfactory explanation why an empty Airforce One plane flying around on a photo op needed an F16 escort?

‘I am beginning to believe that the fly-over of NY City yesterday was probably to impress a few special people on board.’

Not a bad theory. Better than my ‘New al-Qaeda Recruitment Video’ theory. :-)

[coon2000]

The White Palace explanation is pure BS. Your joy ride scenario sounds far more plausible. So they were using F-16’s to take pictures huh? Frightening how many people would actually believe that.

[Carley]

We will never know.

Only classified documents pertaining to keeping America safe from terrorists are to be revealed to the world.

[Eye of Unk]

I would bet sometime later it may have been all conceived to draw out a possible assassination attempt using ground to air portable missiles.

All the tactics I have seen from Obama is setting up bait scenarios, there may have been “chatter” on the internet about AQ setting up such an attack and the AF2 747 was sent in like a Wild Weasel.

[AZLiberty]

No, it’s Obama telling us we’re pwned. If he wanted to, he could have taken down the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty.

[Major Matt Mason]

I was thinking this very thing today while listening to Rush. Other than the standard crew, who was on that plane, and why hasn't this question been asked? Well, OK, I know why it hasn't been asked, but it should be.

[Toespi]

I have been thinking this as well. But I believe the passengers were those executives entwined in the financial debacle.

CBS says “The flyover — apparently ordered by the White House Office of Military Affairs so it would have souvenir photos of Air Force One with the Statue of Liberty in the background”. Souvenir photos for the big first 100 days celebration? Souvenir photos for whom?

[rightwingextremist1776]

I've been saying this since yesterday...we need the PASSENGER MANIFEST!
