And how many tons of those nasty carbon emissions?
What irresponsible hypocrites “running” this country
Sell AF1s
What does he care since it didn't cost him anything!
I want to know WHO WAS ON THE PLANE!
I sure hope some enterprising reporter (from FNC) bird-dogs the passenger manifest angle.
Hannity is reporting people were sent to the hospital for severe panic.
And I don’t blame them. I saw that on TV at the airport yesterday and for a moment my heart was in my throat.
Is that for both planes, or for the escort jet only?
Where is the PASSENGER MANIFEST? Where was Mama Obama during the flight?
I hope this comes up at Obama’s press conference. He should have to answer the tough questions.
Can you imagine what the reaction would have been if someone in the Bush White House wanted a photo op of Air Force One and pulled this stunt???????
Can you imagine the reaction from the global warming crowd if a Republican presidnet was using the enormous carbon footprint of Air Force One and air force fighter planes for something so stupid?
Why is it, that when Democrats or their administration do something stupid, that it is glossed over or minimized and forgotten, so we can concentrate on the “real issues”?
Holy cow that is a lot of green for a photo op. I could have done the same image in Photoshop in 5 minutes what bozo the clown did that cost 328 grand. I Guess Obama is spreading the wealth around, other people’s wealth
328 thousand babies and old people could have had a flu shot.
Well, the pictures better be good, and I mean museum quality good. /sarc
Not sarcastically, I think the public is OWED a viewing of these supposed pictures, if they exist. Of course, it could’ve been a two-fer: 1) do whatever it is Obama wanted to do, and 2) take pictures as the cover for the real “mission” in the event they are requested or demanded.
THIS FROM THE SAME PEOPLE WHO CASTIGATED CEOs FOR FLYING ON THEIR OWN PRIVATE AIRCRAFT !!! ???
I am certain that this figure pales in comparison to the lost productivity and sales incurred as a result of the panic that ensued due to the "flyover".
Chump change for an Obama PR shot. Where does this stuff come out of the budget, anyway? The Great Leader Proganda line?
What will the cost be after all the lawsuits are filed?
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.
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...?
