Ignorant, immature, and conceited. That’s the only explanation for the complete morons that decided it was a good idea to send a 747 to buzz Manhattan Island without warning the general public. Can we squeeze this one onto the list of top 100 blunders of the one-der kid’s first 100 days?

As secret missions go, this one was a flop.

On Monday morning, one of the 747s used to ferry around the president of the U.S. was dispatched to the Statue of Liberty, escorted by fighter jets. Assignment: Get some fresh glamour shots of the plane.

The Air Force said the flight needed to remain confidential. So while New York police knew about it, as did at least one person in the mayor’s office, regular New Yorkers remained in the dark.

As a result, to onlookers Monday all across downtown Manhattan — where the World Trade Center once stood — the photo shoot looked like a terrorist attack. People watched in horror as a massive aircraft, trailed closely by F-16 fighters, banked and roared low over the city, in a frightening echo of the events of Sept. 11, 2001.

Fearing the worst, thousands of people streamed out of the skyscrapers and into the streets. Some buildings ordered evacuations.

“Oh God, it was mayhem in here, just mayhem,” says Rubin Shimon, manager of Styling Haircutters, a barber shop near Ground Zero, where many people took shelter to call loved ones on their cellphones.

His name is Carpet because he was born the same color as the carpet remnant his mother was laying on/near. Little beggar is growing like a weed!

The Republican Party needs a conservative with strong moral values and a voice people will listen to.

We don’t need a conservative with strong moral values and a penchant for mythological tales of creation.

Especially not one that thinks those same tales need to be taught to children in school science classes.

Obama isn’t a muslim. We’ve had that bit of information driven home enough that everyone believes it now. But maybe some of that early training stuck. Respect for the ruler of the city that holds the meteorite they all pray to seems to be a lesson he hasn’t forgotten.

The President of the United States, bowing down to the saudi king. That’s the king of saudi arabia; that lovely country where they have the happy fun-loving religion police running around beating women for talking to men, driving, or BEING kidnapped and raped. They seem rather fond of disciplining old women, too.

The man is a disgrace. When I saw the picture, I assumed he had tripped or something… surely it could not have been what it appeared.

The video erases all doubt.

Shorter clip, gets right to the point:

Still happy with this president?
