Alright, all you fucktards can now get off of the Bush waited 7 minutes in the classroom on 911 shit. 3 fucking hours and he wasn't told? Where was he and what was he doing? Michael Moore where are you?


It was CHRISTMAS, I wonder what he might have been doing..... :P

I think I read he was in Hawaii. Maybe the phone service there isn't so good :wink: :lol:

I mean within the US, once a person has boarded a plane, if it stops in another city before it's destination, people who are continuing on stay on that plane without being rechecked. During the layover you never leave the plane. Is this maybe what happened? You would think a flight from Nigeria would have an extra screening process, but I wonder.


:?:
You dont ??? What kinda layovers have you had? :wink:


coming back from Colorado we stopped somewhere and never left the plane beforemoving on to Orlando :P or did you mean something else and I'm being slow?


anytime I have layovers in Europe, you always switch planes.


But what if the SAME airplane goes to the destination you are headed for. Like ours stopped in another city to let a few people off, and pick up a few people. Then we moved on to Orlando. Why would we have to get off the plane that is taking us the whole way? Southwest does this quite often on flights going to Dallas too. They stop in Houston first, and then Dallas, and you do not need to get off, since it's the SAME plane going to both places.

I thought this flight STARTED in Nigeria and the SAME PLANE landed in the Netherlands and took off from the Netherlands to Detroit. If it's the SAME PLANE doing all this, and they assume the security checks have been done, why would people need to leave the plane? Now from country to country, it seems they should be rechecked. But within the US, they do not. And I was asking what they do in Europe.

I really don't see how this guy switched planes if the same plane that left his country stopped in Europe and that same plane came here. I mean that kind of shows what you are saying is not true. A plane lands, some get off, some stay on, and then it goes on. Happens everyday.

This man must have known that in the Netherlands they would not have made him get off the plane.



He DID switch in Netherlands. They rarely have you sit and wait in the plane cause 99% of the time you have to get on another plane,,,, even most domestic flights , you switch planes.

No amount of tongue-waggling or bullshitting will ever usurp the fact that there is, nor never will be, an excuse for Dubbya sitting there like a dolt while the city burned.

Yes, BUT, explain all the 100's of other flights when we go from one gate to another without a SECOND screening between flights in a layover situation? Isnt' THAT what happened in the Netherlands???

And I wouldn't say most. A LOT of people everyday stay on planes EACH flight. Does this sound familiar: "for those of us who will be continuing on with us, please remain seated .. blah blah blah"


Switching planes DOES NOT mean a body cavity search :wink: :lol:

Hold on, you can't blame Obama if he wasn't told. You can only hold him accountable for what he does or does not do once he is informed of it. If he wasn't told for 3 hours, clearly, someone on his staff needs to lose their job. Because that ain't right. If he wasn't told, how in the hell is supposed to handle a situation he doesn't know about?

Now, if he WAS told, and he sat there and did absolutely nothing but stare blankly into space for... oh, let's just say about 7 minutes... then you can blame him.

He's just lucky that there wasn't a sceond, third or 4th plane. As for the 3 hours, who the hell is running this show anyway? Millions of Americans knew about this minutes after it happened and the freaking TOTUS isn't told for 3 hours. Maybe he was giving another shout out to Old Joe Medicine Crow.


Busy accepting a randomly-given Nobel Prize maybe?

I agree, who the hell is in charge of getting URGENT fk'ing info to the President? Because whoever it is, they are doing it wrong!

Fact Finder is fun to read and so on the mark. Any Preisdent can be on vacation and contacted immediately. The media acted like Bush was AWOL when he went to his ranch. Lets see the Lib media go after Obama for the same issue. It will NEVER happen,nor should it. The thing that bothers me the most is he should have been contacted within minutes. It is the people he appointed to surround him that are as inept a bunch as ever assembled.

Article from Daily Beast.

"Why Obama's Not Talking

President Obama doesn’t want to be filmed, as his predecessor was, momentarily interrupting a casual golf game to talk about a terrorist attack, Marc Ambinder writes. Obama has been on vacation in Hawaii, and though he’s been videoconferencing regularly on Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab’s failed attempt to blow up a Northwest Airlines flight on Christmas Day, he has not made a public statement because that could elevate the importance of the deed and cause panic among the public. The president is willing to risk looking “soft” on terror “to advance what he believes is the proper collective response to a failed act of terrorism,” Ambinder says. It’s a conscious move to calm the country, since his advisers feel “the Bush Administration projected their panic and anger” onto the public."

thanks for posting this jana. seems some want to compare obama to bush, but if we do it is is unfair or not the same, etc...

i am not exactly happy with obama as president and my disappointment in the senate is at an all time high, but there are a few things i like and obama's philosophy on this incident is one of them.

It would be strategic suicide for Obama to vocally acknowledge his disappointment that the attack failed.

State of the Union.

Napolitano: "The system worked"

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Sunday that the thwarting of the attempt to blow up an Amsterdam-Detroit airline flight Christmas Day demonstrated that "the system worked."

Asked by CNN's Candy Crowley on "State of the Union" how that could be possible when the young Nigerian who has been charged with trying to set off the bomb was able to smuggle explosive liquid onto the jet, Napolitano responded: "We're asking the same questions."

Napolitano added that there was "no suggestion that [the suspect] was improperly screened."



The System Worked!!! The System Worked????

Good fucking grief...how stoOpid can this woman be? I guess the "System" is the actions of fellow passengers to supress in-flight terrorists attacks.

Janet, I expect to have your resignation letter on my desk in the morning.

This might be the single dumbest thing I've seen anyone say in my whole life. :shock:


if the system was working people wouldn't be able to get on planes with explosives.

the only reason those passengers (and people on the ground who could have been killed) are alive today is because the bomb didn't go off as planned.

Does anyone else think Obama spends an inordinate amount of time away from Pennsylvania Avenue? I mean, seriously, does he want the job or not? :?

On another note, I find the excuse that he won't talk about this twarted attempt because he doesn't want to 'alarm' the public absolutely ridiculous. He goes on mass media tours about any other thing on his agenda, but won't talk about this? Just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. This isn't a republican or democratic issue - a liberal or conservative thing. This is an AMERICAN situation, of concern to us all! Be the leader you're supposed to be, dammit! If nothing else, get in front of a camera and do the opposite of what you accuse Bush of doing, and reassure the public of their safety! Sheesh! :evil:

Both of you are wrong...NO PRESIDENT has a day off...EVER...not today...they are wired in, have daily briefings, the works, and then a few HOURS to spend swimming in the blue Hawaiian waters, or clearing brush on their property.

Seriously people, I mean just think a little before you bloviate.
