That's what I thought, too - this kills the final shot. But then I remembered the short attention span of the American public and the fact that this is probably not being discussed at all anywhere but here...and I realized that Bambi and Lucas have nothing to worry about. They can keep the shot. It's all cool.
I think there is more to come out. Like perhaps who was joy riding on AF1, as a form of payola to close pals.
Another factor to consider: the military really seemed to love and respect W. This Air Farce One episode will make the crew of AF1, and the USAF and the military in general scorn and disrespect the Obama admin.
So far, he has pissed off the CIA, and now he’s working on the military. Way to go, commander in chief!
