I suppose he's savaging Bush for this - "This wouldn't have happened if Bush hadn't strained all our equipment to the breaking point over inb Iraq!"
God, talk about everything going wrong.
Update on crash - Geraldo on Fox says it looks like a Coast Guard bird. At least the crew made it out.

Geraldo is going hysterical about the copter!!
He is analyzing the scene with his vast military experience. I love Geraldo's lunacy...it is soooo melodramatic its "camp".

Actually, it looks like it beat itself to death and it doesn't look like the blades hit the cockpit.

There are hundreds of helicopters down there right now flying what must be thousands of missions a day. A mishap is bound to happen as helicopter flying is inherently dangerous.
Glad to hear that everybody is okay in this one.
BTW, when I was in the Marines, I flew hundreds of hours in a C-130. I took one helicopter ride and I was almost peeing my pants. Especially when it got a few hundred feet in the air and just hovered there with the side doors wide open. There's just something very unnatural about just hanging in the air like that. When I got off that helicopter, I said "never again" and I've never climbed onto one since.

Is it always necessary to post the same comment over and over? "It's Bush's fault". I am so sick of seeing it posted multiple time on every thread. Like the guy that yells " IN THE HOLE" during every shot at a golf tournament.

I'm about ready to have a meltdown myself. I think I'm gonna watch HGTV tonight
I just can't take another night of this
