White House Aide Loses Job Over Flyover Fiasco
White House aide Louis Caldera loses job over Manhattan flyover fiasco involving Air Force One

By Kenneth R. Bazinet
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU

WASHINGTON - The White House aide who authorized the controversial Air Force One photo-op flight last week around the Statue of Liberty is out of a job.

President Obama has accepted the resignation of Louis Caldera, the director of the White House Military Office, the Daily News learned Friday.

A secretary of the Army in the Clinton administration, Caldera took the fall for the public relations fiasco arising from the April 27 flyover, which was designed to replace a publicity photo of Air Force One flying past Mount Rushmore with a similar shot of Obama's 747 jumbo jet over the Statue of Liberty.

Caldera's office insisted the flyover was a "classified" mission and should not be disclosed to the public, ensuring that thousands of New Yorkers would be blindsided by an event eerily reminiscent of the 9/11 terror attacks against the Twin Towers.

Federal officials notified Mayor Bloomberg's office and NYPD officials in advance, but Bloomberg was not informed, infuriating the mayor.

    This demonstrates a serious charater flaw, when O will not take responcibility for his own ignorance.

    90% of America probably thinks that is not Caldera's fault. 5% are the biased media still in their dance of devotion. 5% believe the bias media. Barry made jokes about it at his private party. Hmmm? First person Barry fired is a Latino. That should show them just how important their illegal vote is! LOL

    First we hear the New York authorities were told this would happen, and now we're told they weren't told. Who are we supposed to believe? Who is the liar?

    I'm kind of surprised that nobody from those hi-rises took a hi-powered rifle shot at those planes,to the naked eye they had to look like a serious threat.

    This is how Obama is going to fix America! The first two are his supporters. Obama's the repair man. At least we know they're all Democrats.

    Yes he should have resigned BUT he is a sacrificial lamb for Obama. Somehow they will twist it to be a George Bush plot to overthrow the government.

    Haven't you figured it out by now the Messia can do no wrong, people will be sacrificed to preserve this false idol at any cost, he only cares about himself... What other POTUS would let this man go just to preserve his image !

    The SUCKA shouldn't take the fall alone, though.

    I wish he would take that grandstanding pimp with him! God knows I wish the First Black President had been a person of Honor and Honesty. So many better could have been there instead of him .. .. .. but, what can you do? He's there now, and we all have to live with it.

    Since when did a White House aide decide where Air Force One flies? Since when does a White House aide approve spending over 300,000 for a ridiculous photo op?

    A fish stinks at its head. Mr. Presiprompter needs to go.
