After Schlussel Expose, U.S. Air Force “Responds,” Quietly Restores “Lt Bush” on Plane

By Debbie Schlussel
Recently, I told you about how the U.S. Air Force, in response to Obamanik pettiness, painted over the name “Lt George W. Bush” on the plane former President Bush flew while serving in the military. The brass at Ellington Field–playing politics–did this to please the Obama administration, in an attempt to keep the base open.
Then, after I exposed this, the PR brass at Ellington Field–including Lt. Col. Shaunte Cooper–blatantly lied about it to a liberal Houston free pimp-and-ho-ad-laden rag, which “inquired” after I wrote about it, claiming the name had never been painted over. (Not that actually going to the base and checking was in the playbook of lazy Richard Connelly, a Houston-based crazy at the far-left free rag, who was more interested in engaging in conniptions and unhinged ravings against me than actually engaging in real reporting and confirming my report.)

“LT G W BUSH” Quietly Restored Bush USAF Plane

After Schlussel Expose

Ms. Cooper claimed that the plane I showed on this site–the plane from which Bush’s name had been removed–was not the plane and that I had it wrong and that the name had never been removed and was already repainted. Lt. Col. Cooper = Lt. Col. CYA.
But, in fact, witnesses and photographs confirmed that it had been painted over and not restored. And since then, the “wrong plane” is now the one to which Bush’s name has been recently quietly restored because of this site’s reporting on it and your e-mails and complaints, witnesses report.
Here is one eyewitness account:

Debbie:
I just checked the F102 at Ellington Field. “Lt George W. Bush” is now–finally!–back on the jet.
The influence you have!

And the liars they are at Ellington Field. I wouldn’t want to be in a foxhole next to Lt. Col. Cooper. But somehow I doubt this dishonest chick, Cooper, has ever been in a foxhole . . . unless they have those inside a propaganda desk of a lying pencil-pusher.

Did President Obama overturn his order, or did Lt. Col Shaunte Cooper – whom you call a liar – overrule the President’s order?

A “Light Colonel” overrule a Presidential Order?
Middleman must not know too much about the military.
Watching reruns of M*AS*H doesn’t count.

So what do you suppose happened, Sam? Debbie reported that the word came down from Obama to paint over Bush’s name on the plane. Now Bush’s name is back. President Obama must’ve read Debbie’s piece and ordered that Bush’s name be restored!
[M: I REPORTED NO SUCH THING. I SAID HE IS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF AND THIS WAS THE POLICY OF HIS ADMINISTRATION. STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH. WHAT HAPPENED HERE IS THAT THE BASE OFFICIALS GOT CAUGHT WITH THEIR PANTS DOWN AND GOT A TON OF COMPLAINTS FROM MY READERS. I KNOW IT’S TOUGH TO EXPECT LIBERAL AGITATORS AND TROLLS LIKE YOU TO WAKE UP AND ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT HAPPENED HERE. RIP VAN WINKLE HAD A BETTER SHOT AT THAT. IT’S FUNNY HOW THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF GOT BLAMED FOR MILITARY ACTIONS AND DECISIONS OF HIS ADMINISTRATION ONLY WHEN HE WAS BUSH OR REAGAN, BUT NOT WHEN THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF IS OBAMA. DS]

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ROCK.

No one’s putting words in your mouth. These are your exact words:
“And please don’t tell me that there’s no evidence Obama knew about this or ordered it. He’s the Commander-in-Chief. The fish rots from the head down. He was the one responsible for the plane flyover debacle in Manhattan.
And he’s responsible for this deliberate act of the uber-petty.”
If Obama is responsible, he must’ve issued the order for Bush’s name to be repainted.

Middleman on July 13, 2009 at 4:50 pm

I don’t think Obama knew about this nor would he have cared. The NY flyover, he knew. This act was done by a suckup Airforce Officer trying to be PC. To whom? Anybody’s guess. Thanks Debbie for reporting on this. I never saw this on the news and I missed it on your site.

In ancient Egypt conquering rulers would stike the names of their predecessors inscribed on monuments, walls and tablets.
Hope and Change?

Good work on the story, Debbie. I did laugh outloud at your “sharing a fox hole” comment, since it’s one of my husband’s frequently used expressions to say “There are no foxholes in the sky” 😀

I think this is how we survive the next four years-public pressure

Now if only your infulence was strong enough to make The One and Congress fund the full F-22 program (750 fighters). buy the FB-22, repeal the Obey Amendment, and begin accelerated 6th gen research.
Else we will completely lose air superiority once Russia and China begin their 5th and 6th gen export programs sometime next year.

Obamaniac, is trying his hardest to liken himself to Alexander the Great & Ramses III. It’s a shame the only thing he will be remembered for in history is being the son of a drunk who fathered many children. A liar. And a very bitter man against white america who didn’t make him King Of England at the age of 6. Pitty.
