White House press secretary Jay Carney tells ABC News a “bad weather call” was made before the President and his younger daughter Sasha even boarded the aircraft...............Where are Michelle and Malia???? Taking a separate vacation?? Of course the sycophant MSM is too dense to pick up on the obvious point...

I am glad they are safe.
The last thing we need is for this guy to become a martyr of sorts.

Hmm perhaps it was a ruse and obama is instead spending the weekend with soros at a undisclosed location?

just a conspiracy theory for the long weekend.

It remains unexplained why the President would be allowed to board Marine One knowing that the landing site on the mountain was experiencing weather making a landing difficult

Not hard to explain, the a-hole in chief over rode what ever authority told him it was unsafe and then at the last minute, self same a-hole chickened out.

Probably nothing more than Zero looked down and saw some dude selling cigarettes out of the back of his van and had to get him some.

Malia is old enough to have a life. She probably has a social obligation, soccer tournament, or some such thing.

As anyone who has ever fought the good fight against the tobacco plant (and won) can tell you, that is probably a very correct estimation!

Something is VERY fishy. If the weather at Camp David was bad why would the helo ‘ divert” to an undisloced location rather than back to the WH for a motorcade?

Why land at an undiscloseed site and then did they have to wait for a morotcade? if there was enough time for a motorcade to get to an undisclosed location there was enough time to go back to teh WH where the motoracde was.
I know we don’t have ‘ morotcades sitting all around at ‘ undisclosed sites just waiting for the POTUS to land

very fishy
and if MSM doesn’t ask questions they are fools
oh wait, redundant

They were worried that Tele would get hurt, he probably took it along to practice his unimpressive partial BS speech.

I suppose they might have a motorcade of sorts somewhere along the flight path to deal with sudden issues. That said, the more likely scenario is that Obammy need a secret meeting with his puppet master, or a representative of same.
