Voters soon to get explanation of (our) Air Force One flyover
I was glad to hear that we'll be getting a report on how that New York flyover for photos came about recently. We seem to live in a time where sensivity is either overdone or ignored completely. If we're going to err on one side or the other, I'd definitely prefer the former. And in this particular case, the confusion added to the lack of sensitivity made things worse. A swift accounting would have been best. Dragging in with an explanation at this point is probably still going to leave a lot of people upset.
