Who Will Be Held Accountable for This Morning's 9/11-esque Scare ?

Whose idea was it to not inform the public when authorizing an extremely low-flying airliner to fly over the Hudson River near lower Manhattan? Federal Aviation Administration, U.S. Air Force, New York State or city officials? Or perhaps a better question is, who had responsibility to inform the public, and who dropped the ball?

The Wall Street Journal has posted some of the first video of the flight . . .

[Califreak]

Aholes, all of them.

N0body.........

f*ckin unbelieveable. anyone got a video link?

[Obadiah]

Obviously it was a campaign commercial for Obama. Air Force One circling the Statute of Liberty - at taxpayer expense!

[ClearCase_guy]

Dick Cheney?

[Slapshot68]

Well if Bush was still in office, it would be Bush. Obama, however, is never to blame.

[Obadiah]

Not with the corrupt MSM covering for Obama.

[dfwgator]

Well if Bush was still in office, it would be Bush

It doesn't matter, they'll find a way to blame Bush anyway.

[avacado]

Just Obama having fun with his Islamic buddies saying look out the windows and watch all the people scatter out of the buildings.

[No Truce With Kings]

C’mon. We *KNOW* what the Obama Administration’s take on the blame will be:

-—>>> BUSH’S FAULT!!! <<<-—

Right?

Buller? Anyone?

[SuziQ]

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs just told reporters he had absolutely no information on the matter.

The White House press pool would not have let President Bush's Administration get away with the "I don't know anything about it" excuse. President Bush would have immediately been villified on the air for being "out of touch", and "dismissive of the safety of the American people". Have any of these reporters said anything of the sort about That One?

[pabianice]

The most senior manager at the FAA who was appointed by Bush.

[the invisib1e hand]

this is some kind of bullshit psyche-op.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Bush/Cheney/Rove’s fault.

[GeorgiaDawg32]

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs just told reporters he had absolutely no information on the matter.

None of these guys know anything about anything..and they run the country..gives me a bunch of confidence.. IMAGINE if Tony Snow had said HE had no information on the matter..it'd be headlines from now till the end of May..

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Talk about a waste of fuel and money...!

[DieHard the Hunter]

I bet Obama uses this as a catalyst to “do something”. After all, never let a perfectly good crisis go to waste.

[DieHard the Hunter]

> f*ckin unbelieveable. anyone got a video link?

At the WSJ site there is a video link with about a minute’s worth of video. Spooky stuff!

[JimSEA]

this is some kind of bullshit psyche-op.

We are being told it was a photo op. That is a clintonesque non-answer. What was the photo op for, who approved it and who benefits? It might get real interesting but I don't ever expect answers.
