It just literally blew my mind. How f-ing stupid are these people?

It's not stupid at all.

The symbolism fits The One's opinion of himself perfectly.

He is "above" liberty. It's such an old-fashioned idea.

It's more of his soulless, monumentally narcissistic personality expressing itself.

The symbol of our disappearing liberty is tiny when compared to a symbol of our king.

How appropriate.

I think you're exactly correct.

There's a reflection from the fighter's canopy in the top right of the photo. The pilot could care less but a credible photographer could predict that would happen.

I'd like to see a better photo of the F-16. I bet it was a single seater meaning they relied on a fighter pilot to take the photo. Laughable!

Nice Photoshop! But of course this raises the question why the clowns in the WH saw the need to squander $300,000 on a photo that looks like crap when they could have gotten a WH intern to Photoshop a much better image.

I believe the military hijacked the plane to send obuma a warning.

Thanks for clarifying that, re Caldera. Then he’s just one more idiot Obot tucked into high places. Good riddance. WHO WAS ON THE PLANE?

What took him so long? Oh yeah, he’s a Democrat. Any actual American would have resigned immediately - although no actual American would have authorized a stunt like this in the first place.

If you actually believe this guy authorized that flight I have a bridge I want to sell you. The Liar in Chief has to authorize all flights of AF1 or AF2. That doesn't mean Bozo came up with the idea but that means he must be aware of it and sign off on it before that plane can take off.

This photo is phony, it is either photo shopped or was taken at some other time.

Whatever the true reason of the flight, and I think it was a joy ride that Bozo arranged as payback for favors granted during his campaign, we will never know but one thing is certain, Bozo is the one who was in charge and he knew about this flight.

I believe Obozo sent that plane out on a joy ride for whomever was aboard to show that he owns the plane (ya’ know, “whitey’s” plane).

Yes, were any citizens harmed in the stampede and panic?

Where’s ACORN’s protests?

Is John Edwards filing c/a suits?

No doubt. But even so, the fall guy should have taken the fall earlier.
