Obama's Plane Scare

Re American flag on Obama's plane tail: his campaign leased the plane from North American Airlines, which had a stylization of the Stars and Bars on its tail. This was trademarked, and when O's campaign bbought the plane, had to be changed to comply with the law. Hence the Obama red, white and blue logo that replaced it. Another red herring rumor discredited.

What's up with Obama removing the American flag from the tail of his plane? If he wants to be President for the Americans, shouldn't he show his American pride?

Hey Rob Johnson, you're being sarcastic right? Seriously, that's sarcasm I hear, correct?

"LOL American scum so short sighted and manipulated by anything that inspires their fears and draws imagination; all for a good story.
You're screwed; the world left you behind in 2000, enjoy your world of class conflict and the dystopia that is your reality."

Meanwhile, we'll all let you enjoy your fantasy. LOL

Anyone with a brain supports Obama... it's that simple.

I think they are trying to get him or atleast scare him. May got be with you Obama.

Hispanics support John McCain.

Jews support John McCain.

Maybe if North Carolina had a better turn-out than less than 150 people, he would have gone to NC. After the pilot claimed he noticed an issue on his Midway take-off, the plane traveled another 300 miles in the opposite direction before making a normal landing. On the recorded tape, people didn't sound too concerned, and it sounds as though folks are partying in the cockpit.

Stories like this make me nervous.

"I'm amazed that Obama hasn't claimed that he single handedly save all on board by 'smiling'."

Did The One pray, as many do in such situations? Did he pray out loud? If so, to whom or what? Does he stutter when he prays?

Too much hot air aboard, most likely -- and what in the world were happen were he and that blowhard Biden were on the SAME plane??

Double-crossing the Democrats on every single subject, then planning a grand "post-partisan" coronation, separate from the tacky ole Democratic Convention.

If there are any actual Democrats left in the "leadership", they should ground The One in Chicago, and confine him to the grounds of the Obama-Rezko mansion, for (nearly) hijacking the nomination under false pretenses . . . then go on to Denver and nominate a REAL Democrat, preferably John Edwards.

At some point, somebody's going to have to explain to me what 'change' means. Clinton said that in 1992 and I didn't see any change. I wouldn't buy a BigGulp from this Obama fraud.

KUDOS....To Obama who is the only Democrat trying to clean up Bush's mess and PREVENT MCCAIN FROM HURTING THE ECONOMY MORE!

JFK jr bought more airplane than he knew how to fly, and exceeded his license, flying after dark, over water, when his license was Visual Flight only.

I don't know as much about DC-9s as many of you claim to. What it appears is that the emergency slide in the tail-cone inflated unexpectedly, and pressed against the tail control cables and levers. Having decreased control over the horizontal tail surfaces is not a good thing. The plane appears to have been tail-down, nose-up, which is less dangerous than the opposite.

I don't believe it's possible to intentionally deploy the slide without releasing the tail-cone, and de-pressurizing the cabin. I think it's a mechanical.

No one really believes it's a Clinton conspiracy, but it's fun to say it.

The Clinton's plane? Humm!

Hey CB -
The earth is a sphere, so when you fly, you go on curves.

I'm amazed that Obama hasn't claimed that he single handedly save all on board by "smiling."
