The New York Times reports that "Jet Flyover Frightens New Yorkers." Of course it did. How could anyone imagine otherwise?
A Boeing 747 and 2 fighter jets flying outside of normal flight paths would bring 9/11 immediately to mind for anyone in New York who saw it. Who could be so stupid as to think it would not?
All that said. As stupid as anyone is to have thought that New Yorkers would react otherwise, one must ask one other question.
What possible reason would lead anyone to send Air Force One to fly around New York? What in the world was the White House thinking to approve such conduct? Was anyone even thinking? Is President Obama so self absorbed that he can't see how incredibly stupid the idea was? Is no one able to say to him, "Don't be stupid"?
I'm sorry, but I see no possible justification for doing what the White House clearly ordered.
