I mean, whose idea was it to do a photo-op over the Statue of Liberty? Just wanted your comments, Rush.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, I\u2019ll tell you something, I\u2019ve seen the picture. They released the picture and I read the stories that Caldera was shown the door and they released the memo late Friday afternoon, typical Friday afternoon document dump and nobody cares, going into the big White House soiree, social weekend, you know, Hollywood, show biz for ugly people, that\u2019s what politics is. I thought I read somewhere Caldera said that he didn\u2019t even know that it was happening. Regardless, he\u2019s the fall guy, we knew he was going to be the fall guy, but anybody again with a brain knows that there is not a single person in the White House that can call up Andrews Air Force Base and say, &#8216;Air Force One\u2019s doing a joyride over Manhattan for photos.\u2019 One person cannot do this. Moving Air Force One requires a lot of policies, checklists, the security alone on something like &#8212; the fact that Obama didn\u2019t know about it is absurd. <\/p>\n<p>But what\u2019s even more interesting to me is the picture. You can barely see the Statue of Liberty in the picture. If you didn\u2019t know it was the Statue of Liberty in that picture, you\u2019d think, what is that? Where is this airplane? The airplane, the in-the-air home of Barack Obama, that was the focus, not the Statue of Liberty. The headquarters of our messiah was the focus. Liberty, the Statue of Liberty, the symbol, freedom, looked like a tiny little French fry. You could barely see it. Subtext, hidden messages: Obama is what counts. Statue of Liberty, yeah, good picture, but you can barely see it \u2019cause it doesn\u2019t matter that much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Brian in Rockland County, New York.
