Shady Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Photos of Air Force One Flying Over NYC, Not To Be Seen By Public The $328,835 snapshots of an Air Force One backup plane buzzing lower Manhattan last week will not be shown to the public, the White House said yesterday. "We have no plans to release them," an aide to President Obama told The Post, refusing to comment further. NY Post So, in case you're keeping score at home. Photos of Air Force One over New York are off limits. However, classified CIA documents on interrogation, as well as photographs of said interrogation need to be published for everyone to see. Including the names of CIA agents responsible for the enhanced interrogation. ABCNEWS outs 'torture' psychologists Bruce Jessen and Jim Mitchell, former military officers, together founded Mitchell Jessen and Associates. Both men declined to speak to ABC News citing non-disclosure agreements with the CIA. But sources say Jessen and Mitchell together designed and implemented the CIA's interrogation program. ABC News Remember when the left was so outraged when that desk jockey Valery Plame was so-called outed? Have you heard a peep out of them after the mainstream media actually outed two real CIA agents? Nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallc Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 "Overall" is an imprecise weasel word. I can find far more negative references about Fox News from "liberals". Yes, because Fox News is overtly biased, and there's no denying it...the same goes for MSNBC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Yes, because Fox News is overtly biased, and there's no denying it...the same goes for MSNBC.

Shady Posted May 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 What do the AF1 pictures have to do with ABC News? Nothing. It illustrates how absurd the Obama administrations priorities are, and illustrates how hypocritical the left is when it comes to the outing of CIA agents vs the outing of a CIA desk jockey.
