In a highly unusual maneuver, President Obama’s 30 minute flight to the Presidential mountain retreat at Camp David this afternoon was diverted to an undisclosed landing somewhere in the Washington area and a motorcade assembled to drive him to

Obama doesn’t believe anything whitey tells him
As all Marine One pilots know, a “bad weather call” since January 2009 has been code for “no chicken nuggets aboard the aircraft.” Call 9-1-1/sar

chicken nuggets? what happened to the Wagu beef?
someone definitely did not want reporters around. So who was he meeting?
Larry.
LOL.
“Shared sacrifice,” I guess.
Bingo
He was up to something...very possible. When does Ramadan end? This is a Friday evening, so maybe he needed to put in an appearance at the local mosque?
Possibly there was a threat, but I doubt it.
Here's the real story. Obama had to land to meet the Ghost Writer for his Big Speech coming up next week. At this point I can't say that I know who wrote the Speech, but Bill Ayers is a possibility. Either him or Maxine Waters.
Obama will spend the weekend looking it over so he'll know when the sneaky TelePrompter tries to put words in his Golden mouth.
OK - there was a supposed security threat. In addition, it seems there was something else- a paramour, donor, hidden visitor, medical isssue which they want to keep hidden, who knows what? VERY weird behavior.
Agreed. His life insurance policy is Bite Me.
LoL!
We can only hope he picked up Vera Baker and gave the Mookie the boot! He’d gain 15 points in the polls!
Does anyone remember the news story of late 2009/2010 that specifically mentioned that ‘the President is unavailable’? No one knew where he was.
Then, there was that picture of him walking off the grounds of the White House to someplace undescribed. No press. No (apparent) security.
The man does get his orders, apparently, occasionally in person.
that was the first thing I thought too. Frederick airport is very close to Cp David, it’s almost out of the way. There was a direct threat or the helicopter had some sort of major malfunction. The friggin weather was perfect, I actually wish it was raining because we need it.
this does not smell right but the media will never ask.
I think there are security protocols in place that no individual POTUS can override. I.e., when 9/11 happened, Bush followe the SS protocol for a catastrophic event. The MSM yapped that he hadn’t returned immediately to the WH, which may have been his personal preference, but those in charge of the safety of the POTUS for which MILLIONS of dollars are expended annually, make those decisions, not the POTUS.
There is something terribly wrong when behavior like this is permitted. This isn’t the first time Obama has ditched the press, and snuck off for undisclosed reasons.
Good call.
My best guess is that there was a threat, this being the week before the 9/11 tenth anniversary.
It sucks to be Obama.
And to be his kid.
