good points.
but at what level does 'employees as a reflection of the boss' cease to be a realistic expectation? someone's direct boss in a machine shop is one thing. someone removed through several layers of bureaucracy is another.
This is a good point. I read this also. Total thought failure on all fronts. It makes you wonder what was going through their heads when the decision was made not to release information to notify the public.
I agree with your statement.Anyway...now there is a big complaint over the cost. The AF says one thing, and the pundits are now adding in the cost of the panicked sheep who called 911, saying that the cost was higher.
If the NYC government had actually released the info on the flyby, provided to them by the FAA, the AF cost would be correct because the sheep on the ground would not have panicked. You can assess blame on the Pres if you like, but this whole debacle lies squarely on the shoulders of the folks holding onto the information.
Now...if you want to know why I used the term 'sheep', just watch a flock of grazing lambs when a large shadow passes overhead...
Decisions were made and those decisions were most obviously bad decisions. Not bad decisions in hind-sight, but just bad decisions, period. There is plenty of blame to be spread about in this case. Dumping it all on the president's shoulders is removing the blame from those that made the decision to hold back the information from the public. Shifting the blame because you do not like that Barak Obama was elected is giving a free pass to the people who are truly to blame. (For the record, I have said similar statements when Bush was president as well. Keep the blame where it belongs. Otherwise you are letting the true culprits off the hook.)
There were two horrible attacks (or one if you want to lump them together) that are still very vivid in the minds of the people who witnessed (or survived) those attacks. I would say that these people had reason to flee and panic.
No... we're trying to have an adult discussion here. No one cares about your opinion... it's worthless.

Well, maybe she figured because there is a poster on the other side of the aisle who makes that sort of leap all the time, that it was OK for her to do it too, seeing as you never seem to say that he is dumber than a sack of rocks for doing the same thing.

Oh come on now! He may make some leaps, but it doesn't seem quite that insane or as far of a reach as often, and certainly his reaches are not nearly as funny from a humor standpoint!

Another thing Inkara....I am very centrist and on some issues farther right than a lot of folks, but what makes it a lot easier to be annoyed by conservatives is the fact, that liberals tend to try and convince me why they are right, while conservatives hear anything that is to the left of them and call me liberal and they truly think the label is an insult. It's a lot easier to feel ok about attacking those who attack you first.
