The President of the United States is likely the most threatened man in the world. As a man who is likely constantly running from impending assassination, it’s surprising that we are just now learning that the Obama Administration entrusts a Middle East company with the servicing of the President’s airplane.
An attack against Air Force One would be an attack on both the President and an Icon of American diplomacy, and is for that reason no doubt an attractive — if once unattainable — target for terrorists around the world.
With this revelation, though, a path to the president through the Middle East has been opened. While the White House is adamant that security measures are in place that would ensure that anyone with contact with the plane is thoroughly vetted, the question remains:
Why allow for the possibility in the first place?

I’ glad I don’t have to ride it!
Who gives a$#%&!@*if they do blow it up with him aboard, not like anyone would miss him or really be affected by it much. For once we would all be on the same page, even conservatives would celebrate right along with the foreigners they hate so much.
probably very little will go wrong here. quit inventing problems.
probably family
Bye Felicia.
No worry it’s Obama’s plane
The article said the furniture was sent out to be worked by the company and only AMERICAN Boeing employees with proper security clearance work on the actual aircraft
It’s not about Obama, in this case…THAT JET belongs to THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES! Yes, the OFFICE of the President deserves the RESPECT, even though the HUMAN occupying that office for now doesn’t! I only want our jet serviced by OUR OWN TRAINED SERVICEMEN! Where everything is under OUR control.
Treater! Treater! Treater! Treater!
WTF!!!!????
