Oh, I thought he jumped on a flame-festooned two seater from Orange County Choppers with the Dyke Justice. With she in front.
Actually I’m with him on the chopper flight. It’s ridiculous in DC how much a presidential motorcade ties up the damn street.
Can’t wait for the Star Trek transporter.
Guess he was running late for a tee time.
I heard he went to some sign company so he could tell everyone there how great the recovery is doing.
Now other than the obvious waste, doesn't it seem that if we were really in a recovery, the Dear Reader wouldn't need to keep telling us how great the recovery is going.

Where did he land, and what damage did he do?
You could call him a one-man stimulus plan.
It would have cost the tax payers $300,000 if Michelle and a few guests had gone...
Why should tax payers be paying for their campaigns?
To be fair, every time a Presidential motorcade goes through DC streets, said streets have to be blocked off, security has to be stationed, and tons of people who otherwise would use these streets would have to be detoured or end up being stuck in worse traffic than would otherwise be. I think the setup time for all this process would have been a lot longer than 20 minutes, and it isn’t like the President can just hop in the car and drive out there.
They use decoys all the time....And they seldom tell the truth about them after the fact.
He could have rolled up out back in an white suburban, while all eyes were looking for a motorcade or chopper....
And many times they will use aircraft for short hops, due to security reasons, threats etc, etc.
I would have taken the chopper too.
Was this sign factory the one making the signs for the Arizona desert to warn people about the dangers?
Meh I bet anyone who had to drive in the area was happy he took Marine one...
He does this all the time. I personally have witnessed him taking the chopper for flights to Alexandria and McLean, about that distance.
He must like the ride. And, as President, they salute you when you get into and out of the plane. In the motorcade, they just open the door.
It costs about $500,000 to spin up Marine One. About $1,000,000 to get him to and spin up AF1.
When you’re the dictator, you can do anything. I swear, ever article I read makes me hate this disgusting people more. They’re absolute trash and make the Clintons actually look normal!
After I just saw his motorcade here in Chicago...it was RIDICULOUSLY HUGE and STOPPED traffic for BLOCKS and BLOCKS and BLOCKS! Better to take the Heli.
