Air Force One left wing problems a little hint from the CIA?
Air Force One has had a few days of problems with Bush flying around camapaigning on the taxpayer's dime. There appear to be problems with two different left wings of two different planes.

Snip:
Just over a week earlier, on the Fourth of July, a problem with an engine starter valve on the wing of his plane — this time a 757 — delayed Bush's departure from Hagerstown, Md. Another plane from the presidential fleet was flown in from Andrews Air Force Base to take him on to West Virginia.

Two different planes. Two different wings. Both times they were left wings.

The plane troubles for the Republican president apparently were just a coincidence. And the White House said neither malfunction endangered Bush.

"One of the flaps on the wing was off its track and they thought it was best to have a 757 fly down from Andrews," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said Monday.
