Bush Leaves Omaha!

KFAB-1110 am in Omaha

[BigMacGOP]

It has been reported that Bush has now left Omaha for an undisclosed location.

I hope he and Laura get to some unknown bunker where they will be safe and can run the country from there.

[AppyPappy]

Let's take a poll so we can decide where he goes next < /sarcasm >

[BlueHorseShoe]

Hmmm...I'm here in Omaha and it is kind of scary whenever something goes on just knowing we're here where SAC is.

OK, I'm guessing CO Spgs. Fighters have been patrolling of late, the Mountain is here, as are a number of other National Security type facilities. Airport borders on Peterson AFB, and he can fly direct to the Mountain in a few minutes. Lots of command and control infrastructure there. Space Command also in town, as is a large contingent of Special Forces.

I propose getting NATO's nuclear nations (BRIT, FRA, and US) together with Russia and Israel, and all five nations launching one (1) nuclear weapon at the valley(s) that we think Osama Bin Laden is hiding...

Oh yeah, and for posterity's stake, make sure a couple of them miss and hit the cheering and celebrating Palestinians.

The President does not run the friggin country.

BTW, Quayle is on MSNBC saying the Pres. should get "extordinary powers" and the usual BS about giving up some liberties for security.

Anybody hear George Stephanopolous on ABC refer to the "TWA 800 bombing" when discussing crises during his time at the White House? Slip of the tongue or simple mistake?

[FreeTally]

Makes you wonder why he is jumping from place to place. Guess he could have been in need of a briefing at several places, or, they just want to keep moving. He is probably headed to NORAD now - which makes you wonder why he needs to be there. It is the safest place from a direct nuclear attack.

See my #5. It's a good place to be plugged in.

[DouglasKC]

They're just keeping him in the air till things settle out. Stopping to refuel when it's safe. Next stop will probably be Minot, North Dakota, or possibly March AFB, California.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

This worries me also. One would think the President would remain at a secure location until the all clear. He is not the type to take to whistle-stop tours across the country during a national emergency.

Can we assume from this there is much going on we are not aware of?

[craig_eddy]

Jumping from place to place...I think maybe this is bigger than is being let on...let me adjust my tin-foil hat...

[CheneyChick]

Save it.

[Bush2000]

This is a pile of horseshit. The only ones who know where the president is are the Secret Service. It's not only possible -- but in fact likely -- that our government is feeding misinformation to the press about his whereabouts in order to foil possible additional terrorist cells operating in the U.S. who might seek to harm him.

[ElGatoGrande2]

Supposedly they have moved GW three times, then again, maybe not. I would suspect some misdirection is being used here until all planes and overall security can be counted on. I'm still shocked that the pentagon could be nailed- how were these terrorists able to hijaack these planes? Plastic guns and plastic bullets to get thru metal detectors?
