Just Plane Insensitive...

I have a hard time trying to keep a straight face on these things some days. I just ran across THIS bit of governmental wackiness and man, I don't even know where to begin.

The citizens of New York City are many things, not all of them well-thought of, but one thing that everyone can agree upon, is that they just won't forget that September day some years ago, and it will inform them for years to come.

Now enter the hussein administration with their witless and tactless approach to things, and for some reason they decide it would be just a jim-dandy cracker of an idea to do photo-surveillance of NYC...

From a jet....

Flying low over the city.

Had they NOT invoked the name of NY State jackass senator Chuck Schumer in this piece it might have been tossed off as a minor incident that became blown out of proportion, but the reality is his knowledge and cooperation in this event has chilling implications.

Apart from the very obvious idea that only a fool like Jarjar Binks might think it was a good idea to fly a jet low over NYC, it is dawning on me that there is a very real possibility of your government at work preparing to do something truly deep and dark.

Ive got no proof, just a supposition...

After all, it's not like they expected a secret mission flying a jet low over a city that is prone to not being comfortable with that sort of behavior was going to go unnoticed. They HAD to know it would get noticed.

And it sure as hell didn't happen by accident. You don't notify everyone but the citizenry of your secret mission and then make it spectacularly non-secretive unless of course that was the plan all along.

Call it a primer for things to come.

After all, I had to listen for years about how Bush and Cheney masterminded the attack on the WTC and this was an inside job. I even had to listen for years to the idea that Cheney took out insurance on the WTC buildings... which, of course, is ridiculous, you can't get insurance for something you have no ownership in.

So let's engage in a little paranoia about the current hostile regime in the White House. Let's say that hussein LIKED the amount of power Bush was able to accrue from an attack on the US. Let's say he wants to field test some theories. Maybe he WANTED people to get panicked. After all, this was a PHOTO taking mission of a city that is historically amazingly well documented.

Unless you were looking for something specific you could get similar information from a review of Google Earth. So the motive is not general locational survey, it's something else... and that leads to one of three possibilities that come to my mind in the short term:

1) Let's say that hussein was uncharacteristically doing his job as Commander-in-chief and was acting on a tip from the intelligence community that someone had nuclear bomb components, and the government dispatched one of their spook planes to use sensitive technology to really get a good understanding of where and how much.

2) Something NEW is in the city... maybe the Cloverfield monster, I don't know... and they are searching for it as fast as they can before it can avoid paying its share of the excessively high NYC taxes.

3) hussein wants to gauge the level of panic that a low flying and likely unmarked jet plane over NYC would generate in advance of some sinister plot.

The first idea pre-supposes that protecting Americans is part of hussein's agenda. Would that anything since his pastor insulted whites everywhere during the inauguration invocation had proven that were the case. His legacy to date is one of destruction and chaos, with no proven successes and a significant sense of betrayal of trust.

The second idea is visually more interesting, but unlikely, even by my standards.

That leaves the third idea. The one that plays so well off all the conspiracy theories that liberals and democrats have been shoving down our throats since September 11th at 1:15 PM, 2001. The idea that a sitting US President would knowingly throw something so frightening to so many Americans into their daily lives.

Think the next president will release THAT memo of this regime's torture? And torture it amounts to. Re-read the CNN piece I linked to and see if this is any different that what Bush authorized to use against high level detainees.

And the most traumatic and tragic aspect of the low-flying plane and the callous insensitivity of it all, is that this happens IMMEDIATELY after the White House, with hussein in it, was evacuated this past week-end because of... wait for it... a small passenger plane that flew off course and entered DC airspace.

Difference is, hussein knew what he was doing when he sent that plane over NYC.

(UPDATED: just found this YouTube! clip showing panicked New Yorkers running in fear as a large jet closely followed by an air force jet rumbles too low overhead. I don't blame these people.

I will admit my paranoia piece is probably off the mark, and it's likely that they were legitimately shooting pretty pictures of each other, but for cripes sake, haven't they ever heard of Photoshop?)

I'm Dr. Calamity and I approve this message.
