WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama says it was a mistake for one of his official airplanes to be sent zooming past the New York City skyline for a publicity photo shoot.
Obama said Tuesday: “It was a mistake, as was stated … and it will not happen again.”
Obama commented after reporters asked about the flight as he prepared to meet with FBI Director Robert Mueller at agency headquarters.
On Monday, one of the Boeing 747s used by Obama and an F-16 jet circled the Statue of Liberty at the start of the work day, startling workers in lower Manhattan who feared a nightmarish replay of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
The flight was carried out by the Defense Department. The director of the White House military office apologized for the incident.
STREET KNOWLEDGE 
I posted on this on my blog as well. While I don’t necessarily want to blame President Barack Hussein Obama on this, it is typical of a government that is totally out of touch. Any US business would have used Photoshop to create this effect but instead our government does an actual flyover costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.
