QUITO, Ecuador - Former President George Bush has suspended a trip to Ecuador because the jet he was going to board -- crashed today in Houston.

A conference organizer confirms Bush has canceled his trip because the plane that should have flown the ex-president from Houston -- went down.

Three crewmembers died in the accident during foggy weather.

The private jet clipped a light pole and crashed near Hobby Airport.

Nobody on board survived.

Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig says the Gulfstream flight originated at Dallas Love Field.

The plane's registered owner is Jet Place of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The former U.S. president, who lives in Houston, was scheduled to take part in a business conference.

Yes, it was Love Field. Kennedy would be regarded a moderate by today's standards. Pushed for tax cuts, military buildup, etc. IOW a RINO.

the weather in Houston is really bad today. A short while ago the weather channel said the bulk of the bad weather was just east of Houston with possibilities of tornados and hail....Bush 41 shouldn't be flying today anyway.

Some of the topics of reply to this issue at the website you quoted:

"Payback would (should) have been hell"
"With a handsome young man mounted on his rear to guide"
"Adolf Hitler avoids a brush with death yet again."
"Damn!" "Seeing as GHW was in on the team that pulled the black op [referring to Kennedy]"
"Either they'll tie it to the Iranians or they'll tie it to some activist group on the left.Or use it as an excuse to impose martial law."
"Another innocent crew sacrifices their lives for the new fascist cause?"
"Junior! Musn't assassinate Daddy! Bad! Bad!"
and finally...
"and he almost got rid of him...DAMN those stupid pilots. They weren't supposed to crash until AFTER Poppy was on board!!"

One of the posters had this for an icon:

Nice folks.

When I first saw this early this morning, I was like "Holy crap, Bush 41 lives in Houston, hope he wasn't on that plane" and now this.

Too damn creepy!

Considering the intended passenger, would it be safe to assume that the plane would have (been required to have) black boxes on board? They might help answer some questions.

.....No doubt,.......he wouldn't MISS this 'creepy' for a show.....

Something like,.....the plane wing was designed to 'come off' as the plane passed 'over' the 'Power' poles?

:-(

AQ symbolic threat?

There are no coincidences when a former President who had a serious death threat against him has a close call.
