"Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision," said Louis Caldera, director of the White House Military Office. "While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, it's clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. But just wait until you guys see what comes out of the darkroom! It was SO AWESOME. They got, like, this amazing shot of the Statue of Liberty off the port wing of Air Force One. We're gonna inlay some soaring eagles with Photoshop, and send it to Kim Jong Il along with a shot of Barack and Bo, and put it in this year's Christmas cards. USA! USA! USA!"

Interesting choice. Propaganda photo op on the same day when it's been proposed that the Government should take a controlling interest in General Motors, in effect nationalizing what once was the largest company in the world. Critics will call it socialism.
