I want to know what really happened over ground zero yesterday. This was no photo op. NYC and Jersey City should be demanding an investigation from the top down.

Thanks. I got it now. The Marines do the helicopters and the Air Force does the planes.

Who authorized this?
Who said it was OK?
Who agreed to it??
Who knew about this?
When did they know about it??
How much did they know about it?

Who was on board?

Why wasn’t Mayor Bloomberg and NYC notified?

Why would they do something so utterly horrific after the memory of 9-11 still so fresh?

Do they not care about the vivid memories of that fateful day in 2001???

Were they not worried that someone could have been killed or injured over this?

Did they forget about those that jumped for their lives????

Did they think about ANYTHING except themselves and this stupid photo op?

Look at the video...it looks like the plane is going to fly straight into the building just like in 2001.

Was THAT the photo op they were looking for??????????

Why fly so low to the Statue of Liberty????
Suppose there had been an accident and they plowed into this great statue and all it stands for??? Not to mention if there were tourists inside.

Once again: WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? Truthfully!!!

Who AUTHORIZED THIS? Truthfully!!!

And... WHO WAS ON BOARD???

I want to know as does everyone else and it’s about time we have full disclosure. Just like they want full disclosure on the interrogations!!!

We need to ask and keep asking these questions. They are important and I do not care for Bloomberg but...the man has a right to know answers to these questions and so do the people of NYC!!

That’s okay! President Obama will just have Treasury Sec’y Tim Geithner cut a check to cover the cost from the Stimulus Funds...Uh, wait...?

No no, I know. President Obama will just call his friend AlGore and make a donation to his company for the planting of trees to offset the environmental impact by purchasing carbon credits with funds from the Stimulus — er, hold on...?

Clearly there is too much money allotted to government if missions like this can be contemplated for images to use in propaganda. That would be true even if this had been handled with adequate notice to NYC.

The thing is that they put themselves into a box with the photo op excuse. Now they'll have to produce the photos and there is a lot of photoshop expertise out here and we will be going over the photos with a fine tooth comb if they can produce them.

I suppose this was the closest he could get to the Bush landing on the deck of one of our beloved carriers. He’s such a Freshman! This is just like one unbelievable adventure Obama is having at the expense of all of American’s citizens.

People wake up! Get your head out of Amercian Idol, sports and what not and realize this idiot is recking your children’s future BIG time!

I swear our children would do better growing up with a pack of coyotes than living in this shredded America.

the military White House flyover Manhattan costs $328,835.00

That's more than all the taxes I've worked hard for and sent in to Washington in my entire working career!

On the bright side, I feel it's my life's tax money well spent if it will give Obama a nice fresh picture of "his" airplane flying over New York even though he probably has dozens of others available of the same shots. But at least They're not pictures taken during and left over from the nasty Bush/Cheney Administration.

Our Dear Leader must put a "fresh face" on the country! What redblooded, patriotic American could possibly be against that!!??

Since we're taxpayers, we should have the right to demand to know who was on that joy ride!

0bama's quote "It was a mistake, it won't happen again." These words are probably etched on the glass on TOTUS.

I am tired of hearing these words. THIS is why you shouldn't put inexperienced Bozos into important jobs.

We all make mistakes. We all go thru life learning, and as we age, we learn to recognize situations where we need to take great care with our decisions.

Bank owners don't point at a random teller when they need a new top-level manager. And the US should not have chosen a random community organizer, either.

I know about the AF 1 callsign. Doesn’t the force use cool callsigns at all? Not this unit maybe but how about the F-16s escorting after they were done with the ‘photo-op’?

Why, as a matter of fact, their Girl Scout Troop was earning a new badge that day.
