Absolute Boneheads

I wrote a few days ago that officials in Washington are acting as if 9/11 happened back in the Jurassic period. Ancient history.

I was wrong. This story pretty much proves that they don't believe 9/11 happened at all.

The place: New York City.

The time: Morning.

The incident: A low-flying jumbo jet flies over the city, chased by fighter planes.

The reaction: Fear, injuries, and exclamations of, "Oh, my God," and "Run..."

The reason: White House Military Office director Louis Caldera issued a brief statement.

"Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision," he said. "While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, its clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused."

The article goes on to quote Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer of NY, who places the blame on...the FAA. The FAA, in their own defense, says they were told that the flight was classified and they couldn't tell anybody. Atta boy, Chuck. Absolve the precious Obama White House of any blame at all for scaring the crap out of your state's citizens.

Note to White House: Jumbo jets being chased by fighter planes over any city in the country shouldn't be authorized for any reason whatsoever. A communication breakdown is no excuse because the flight should never have happened in the first place. Boneheads.

If Obama is really a president who understands the people, he should fire Caldera on the spot and can ten other people for good measure. If Obama approved this stunt, he should be grilled mercilessly for the full hour at his upcoming press conference.

Here's a clip from today. See if it brings back some chilling memories:
