The Air Force estimated the photo shoot cost taxpayers $328,835. Yes, I know that all the presidents have spent good money on bad stuff. How many scared the holy crap out of NYC while spending it though?
And for what? I mean seriously look at this picture. I'm no Ansel adams but its a poor composition.
Freedom Eden discribed it as: "it looks like the plane is about to drop a bomb on it (The Statue of Liberty). If the plane is viewed as a symbol of the presidency and the Statue of Liberty as a symbol of our freedoms, it makes the president seem like an oppressor, a powerful force intimidating and assaulting liberty. "
So here I am sitting in a county with 20% unemployment. The US lost another 500,000 jobs this month.
However we did get a fairly bad picture of Air Force One. Even though we have plenty. All for the wages of four familes for a year.
um... yeah...

Try 13 billion for high-speed rail travel. Now that is some serious pork. I hate to say it but Obama is starting to make Bush and Paulsen look like a couple of pikers.
