As part of a month-long aircraft makeover, a painted American flag was removed from the tail of Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign airplane and was replaced with the presidential candidate's trademark "O" symbol.
The refurbished 757 was unveiled to members of the news media today, 41 of whom boarded the craft and took off to meet Obama in Amman, Jordan, where the presidential candidate will stop as part of a Middle Eastern and European tour.
Obama traveled to the Mideast earlier this week on board a separate airplane.
Fox News blogger Bonny Kapp, traveling on Obama's new airplane, reported:
"The North American jet that flew Obama and his traveling crew around for much of the primary season was refurbished with new seats and power for each passenger a must on the campaign trail. And the plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama 'O.'"

Good observation and may be true.
Under Hussein OBombBomb, America will indeed go down the toilet.
To think, we thought Peanut and the Pervert were bad, we “ain't seen nothin yet”
I feel quite fortunate that I do not now have any property
or obligations in the US.
I can just wait it out and see what happens there.
For now, it seems that the dark side is truly taking over.
The plane is on it's way to Jordan, that's international.
Hm and wow.
We are, after all, an Oppressive Empire, similar to the British Empire that the colonists declared independence from in 1776. Obama’s recent speech in which he talked about the oppressive empire and the “bomb” that fell on Pearl Harbor made me think that Obama was really thinking about how awful the USA is and always has been. I don’t know why I think he thinks that . . .
ROTFLOL !!!!
We need a photo of that O symbol with the “Do NOT” line through it - can anybody photo that for me? As in No Smoking@!
First he won’t wear the flag pin, then he wouldn’t place his hand on his heart and now he’s just proved to the world that he’s still got a problem with the American flag. I’m going to send this to everyone that I know on line. It needs to get out. This is more of Rev Wright’s hate America teaching. Obama and his angry wife hate America, and they just can’t help but show contempt for a country that they hate!!
What is a "prolly?"
Yep, the phrase “in plain sight” comes to mind.
It got burned in the fireplace, right? /sarc off
Rush is right,”This guy is a jerk, an arrogant jerk. A Jerk Messiah.” He also keeps making remarks like, “when I’m POTUS” and “ leaders who I expect to be dealing with over the next 8 to 10 years”. Not only does he and the media act like he has already won, he has also been pompous enough not to cover his heart during the pledge, used to be above wearing a flag pin (until he worried it was hurting his political ambitions), has changed the the Presidential seal, and he has now taken the flag off his plane. Of course, don’t forget his elitist, “messiah” attitude.
