I'm almost betting that Obama cancels his trip because he is a coward. He will blame it on the volcano in Indonesia.

I'll bet he wants to be in Chicago with his buddies right now....like really, really, bad.

Can you say "puppet".

OK, so it flew all the way to Mumbai only to land in ‘emergency condition’ because of an unidentified object in the cargo hold.

hmmm.

Ya don’t inspect the cargo hold once you are in the air.

This article is odd at best.

My thought exactly. How do you discover an unidentified object in the cargo hold at the end of the flight?

Perhaps it was parts of the bomb proof ‘tunnel’ being constructed for our potentate’s arrival. Unfreakenbelievable. This man won’t even go visit our troops in Iraq or Afghanistan..yet he is spending A BILLION DOLLARS of our money to visit India and see The Festival Of Lights!

If it’s in a plane, I guess it still qualifies as a UFO.

Do you suppose it could be the light at the end of the tunnel?

Perhaps they were 80% of the way there when someone in Amsterdam re-checked the manifest and realized that they had all but ONE piece of checked luggage matched to butts in seats.

Or perhaps some of the chickens or goats got loose ;-)

I'm still pondering over the fact that his two girls were originally not going on the trip, but now, all of a sudden, they are. They and a small “city” of “others”, including 34 war ships.

There's just something too strange about this whole thing.

Officials became concerned after a Delta staffer at the airport in Amsterdam alerted them to the presence of the unidentified package.

Perhaps it would have been good to have this information prior to the plane to leaving the gate? Just saying...

After reading your comment - I reached for my tinfoil burka.

A pre-emptive bunker hunker ya’ suppose?

And what’s with the navy flotilla of 40 ships?

Whose arse is about to be whupped? When? And why?
