Red Tail Escorts AF1 Over Lady Liberty & Ground Zero
Was one of the escort planes from the Alabama ANG? Check the photo. Looks like a red tail to me. Red Tails movie coming out soon a coincidence? Was George Lucas a big Obama contributer getting paid off?
Commenter Mustang 0302 offers the most interesting theory of the day over at Just One Minute:
Connecting some dots, here.
At least one of the escorting F-16s was from the Alabama ANG, Red Tail and all.
Could this photo op mission have any particular connection to a new movie due out this year?
Could that connection explain the WHMO's eagerness to get some current glamour shots of BHO's A/C, escorted by the descendants of the Tuskegee Airmen, while flathatting over "the target formerly known as Ground Zero"?
Just imagine the powerful, beautiful imagery of these aircraft during this mission, accompanied by a stirring soundtrack, playing over the closing credits, or released as publicity stills or fundraising fodder - "Yes, America, sleep well...BHO's got you covered."
Well, minus the terrified, fleeing citizens on the ground, of course. Ooops. Caldera, you take this one.
"Mission Accomplished", indeed.
Naw, I'll bet I'm wrong. Coincidences, all...surely.
At first, I would've said "naw" as well. But given Obama's affinity for audacious and symbolic campaign stagecraft...
UPDATE: Welcome, American Thinker. Tom links back, and regardless of whether this stunt is related to George Lucas' upcoming movie Red Tails, he's correct on this point: Well - this will never be admitted.
