Air Force Two checklist: TVs set to Fox

Soon we were boarding Air Force Two, a Boeing 757 modified for vice presidential needs, such as secure communication and a private section at the front with a large vice presidential seal on the door. Most of us flying that day - press, flight attendants, Secret Service, military, other aides - boarded via a stairway into the back of the plane. After we journalists had been shown our seats (coach size, while most of the other seats are business-class size), we were invited to go back outside and watch Mr. Cheney exit his helicopter, Marine Two, and board Air Force Two via a separate staircase into the front of the plane. Cheney and several additional aides boarded; we were airborne in minutes.

"Wheels up 9:25," I wrote in the pool report. "TVs set to Fox. Flight time to Topeka 2-1/2 hours."

1. Cheney makes the same demands of hotel rooms

The TV in his hotel rooms must be pre-tuned to FAUX News.

3. Guess he never learned how to work remotes.

2. I noticed that in airports..you get something other than network TV.

Sort of a loop of enfotainment. I wonder why that is. Perhaps airports are not allowed to put anything up because apparently CNN is a total liberal network...:eyes: Didn't it used to be CNN that was on at all the airports? I miss that.

4. When the DEM's control Air Force One & Two in 2009, they should throw

all of the taintd TV's off of the planes onto the tarmac in symbolic fashion.

Then install the new television sets, that will be missing the electronics components allowing them to be tuned to that toilet channel.

5. Humoros, yes, but...

That would be a colossal waste of perfectly good TVs, don't you think? I'm sure that poorer individuals would love to have one of those TVs, and with all of the money that * and the gang have pissed away over the oast six years, it would be the height of irresponsibility to waste money on frivolties such as petty revenge. OK, rant off... :)

7. Yea....maybe it would be better to just pick up Bush and Cheney and

throw their asses out on the tarmac.
