WHITE HOUSE TERROR PLANE PLOTTER OUT!
the business insider ^

Posted on 05/08/2009 1:48:50 PM PDT by FromLori

Finally! After our demanding for the last two weeks that the plotter of the Hudson terror plane, Louis Caldera, be fired, he's gone.

In a classic (classic!) Friday afternoon news dump, The White House confirms that Louis Caldera is out.

Technically, the President "accepted his resignation". We assume that means he was canned.

If you don't recall, it was Caldera's bright idea fo fly Air Force One around lower Manhattan and New Jersey, prompting several buildings to be evacuated out of fear that we were witnessing a repeat of 9/11.

That Caldera's term on the job would end like this was predictable, as he had a career history of "failing up."

Between this and his stint on the IndyMac board, he may want to consult a resume coach before looking for his next gig.

I am now waiting for him to turn on his boss and confirm the fact that that photo op, involved obama directly.

He may have accidentally done that. The news release makes reference to the idea originating during a flight on AF-1.

The rationalizations just keep getting better. Now they're saying it was a training mission, so there wasn't any cost associated with it.

“I am now waiting for him to turn on his boss and confirm the fact that that photo op, involved obama directly.

He’s probably being paid very nicely to keep his mouth shut and take one for obie. Probably never have to work another day in his life.”

Louis Caldera is the name, and falling on your sword’s the game.

they refer to the flight as Air Force One on the documents just released an now on Drudge, I thought that designation was only given to an aircraft with the president onboard, or am I wrong?

Unfortunately this loser has tenure at the University of New Mexico, and he is expected to return to UNM as a law professor. We managed to get rid of him as president of UNM (which was very expensive), and now we get him back.

Boeing VC-137B (707-120/SAM 970) “Air Force One”
The Flying Oval Office

The first presidential jet plane, a specially built Boeing 707-120, is known as SAM (Special Air Missions) 970. This aircraft, as well as any other Air Force aircraft, carried the call sign “Air Force One” when the president was aboard.

Why give yourself the tailings from what drops on the floor when you have the keys to the vault?

The released picture looks to be at least at 4 or 5 thousand feet. Where are the pictures from the 1000 foot level? I still think there were supporters on board.

This is a great link that explains the whole incident. Everyone should read it. Thank you for posting it.

Now we know the story, and we know that our President and his advisors are as callous as anything.

And if there is nothing from the mayor’s office asking the President to reconsider this stupid photo op, then Bloomberg is callous as hell as well.

I note that they INTENDED two to three passes around the Statue of Liberty. This was pure terror. All they had to do was photoshop that plane over it.

There had to some “dignitaries” and cronies on that flight. If you noticed the F-16 had a red tail. The Tuskegee Airmen were nicked-named the Red Tail Angels and escorted bombers in WW2. Was the F-16 an Alabama ANG? I can assure you that with all the symbolism you see coming from Obama, he had to know about it.
