something stills smells fishy yesterday two more new tidbits made the story more puzzling

one:

The announcement was as dramatic as the setting. Speaking live from the crown of the Statue of Liberty, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced exclusively Friday morning on the TODAY show that the statue will reopen to the public on Independence Day.

and two:

The final report on the late April incident came on the same day the Interior Department announced plans to reopen the Statue of Liberty’s crown to visitors for the first time since before the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The Air Force jets appeared to use the statue as a backdrop during the flyover.

The flight was conducted to take publicity photos of Air Force One, flying low over Manhattan’s skyscrapers, for promotional material. Gates said in his letter that the flight also included a training component for pilots to practice instruments approaches and landings at Atlantic City Airport. He said that “with the exception of one combat photographer, a standard crew complement performed the mission...There were no non-duty personnel or passengers on board.”

So we are to believe that the fly over photo op and the re- opening of the Statues crown are un-related and Obama knew nothing about it, and that no one was on board and that it is just coincidence that they landed at the casinos in Atlantic city, and that no one was on board but a photographer to take a picture of the statue FROM INSIDE AIR FORCE ONE? how would this picture be different from any other picture taken of the statue from a plane and how would you even know what plane the picture was taken from?

Something does not add up...

a training component for pilots to practice instruments approaches and landings at Atlantic City Airport.

that excuse is too ridiculous to even comment on.

Also, there is absolutely no way that the White House Chief of staff didn't know about this before it happened

Fits the pattern. This whole obama world is fishy.
