You posted that around 2pm eastern time.

Have you seen any updates?

On Monday afternoon, the Director of the White House Military Office, Louis Caldera, released a statement saying, "Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision. While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, it's clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused."

Nice call!

The buck sure doesn't stop at Zero's desk.

Why? And for something that clearly would cause public concern, why the decision to not notify the public? Since it needn’t be announced that the aircraft in question was AF1 and Obama wouldn’t be aboard there were no pressing OPSEC issues.
