President George W. Bush received some mild criticism here for sending a military aircraft to pick him up in Australia after the attacks on September 11th. After I read an inside account of this trip I wanted to give President Bush a medal instead.

Clinton and his entourage were stuck into the back of a C-17 cargo plane, in a bunch of webbed, harness-like seats along the side of the plane. Clinton himself was jammed between the side wall of the aircraft and a large piece of military equipment that was being transported back to the U.S. The roar of the engines in the cargo area was deafening. The person who related this story was a member of Clinton's group and asked not to be identified. They were all laughing into their armpits at Clinton's predicament because of the way he had always treated military personnel when he was president.

Meanwhile, there were a couple of extra seats in the cockpit that were left unoccupied during the flight.

If my information is correct, that flight from Australia to Washington took a total of 15 hours, and Clinton had to sit there with his fat @ss jammed into that seat the whole time.

God bless President George W. Bush.
