I asked my family about something I read on the other thread, and they blew me off. What do you all think: Why is the President returning from Camp David to the WH via car rather than Marine 1?

I'd assume it's so he can discuss the issue with his team. He'd have more time traveling via car than air to do this.

Heavy fog and low cloud cover in Washington area. Not good flying weather.

": Why is the President returning from Camp David to the WH via car rather than Marine 1? "

I imagine it has to do with the weather. The meeting he had yesterday with Tony Blair was to have taken place at Camp David instead they stayed a the White House because the weather was so bad they didn't want to risk it in the helicopter.

Our weather back here in the east has not been great for helo flying. Freezing rain, low ceiling, icy runways(not needed). Why take the chance?

According to the news it is weather related. Dreary day in more ways than one on the East Coast.

Low clouds in the washington area is what I heard. More likely the President needed the time alone to compose an appropriate response.

"Why is the President returning from Camp David to the WH via car rather than Marine 1?"

One thing I can't help but think is, this was the first flight of an Isreali into space, a pilot involved in blowing up Saddam's first nuclear program. I bet Saddam is just laughing his head off right now, although I doubt he has the technology to do something like this, at least, not without help. But I would not be surprised if someone in NASA with an Islamic sounding name is found dead some time in the future. I'm quite sure that Israel is wondering about a possible 'inside job'. They might even consider whacking someone who only seems suspicious.

Then again, maybe it was a crack. The media was concerned enough to make reports prior to this flight. I just believe in considering every possibility. That is what this forum is about. We aren't here to console people. We aren't an arm of the RNC. We are a forum that seeks the Truth, pokes fun at the enemies of Truth, and boldly considers what others dare not say.
