White House apologizes for NYC flyover

President Obama’s White House was forced to issue an apology Monday after a photo opportunity gone wrong — an Air Force 747 plane did a low flyover lower Manhattan, prompting terrified citizens to flee from their offices and high-profile accusations of government insensitivity.

White House Military Office director Louis Caldera issued a brief statement.

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

This is complete and utter BS!! No explanation for this ‘top secret mission’ to terrorize New Yorkers! I guess Obama convinced this guy to take the fall. Watch for a rapid advancement of director Louis Caldera.

Thanks for ping!

And Louis Caldera becomes the latest associate of TOTUS to get the Goodyear tattoo on his forehead.

The wheels on the bus go thump-thump-thump...
