Can you imagine what the reaction would have been if someone in the Bush White House wanted a photo op of Air Force One

I don't need to imagine

Bush Puts September 11 Up For Sale

The Republican Party's decision to sell the photo of George W. Bush taken on Air Force One on September 11 for $150 generated a firestorm of outrage and controversy. On CNN.com, Bill Press wrote:

As President Bush repeated often: "September 11 is a day that unites us all." But now he's using that memorable day to divide us. September 11 no longer belongs to all Americans. From now on, it only belongs to those Republicans willing to shell out $150 for a souvenir. How tacky. It's not illegal. It's just gross. It's also a huge insult to the victims of 9/11 — who died never knowing they were helping raise big bucks for the Republican party... George Bush hasn't restored dignity to the White House. He's debased it even further. (8)

But until now, no one has asked what George Bush was actually discussing on the phone aboard Air Force One.

Thanks for posting that. I remember the hoopla from the Dems over this non-issue.
