Obamania Continued: Making America Less Safe: Quietly Disarming Airline Pilots

Five days before Obama took office, when Bush delivered his wise and moving farewell address, flight 1549 safely crashed into the Hudson River with no injuries to passenger and crew. Aboard the plane was John Howell, brother of a 9/11 victim (see my "George Bush, the Hudson River Miracle and his 9/11 Presidency").

28 days later, in the Age of the new 44th President, flight 1304 crashes to its doom in upstate New York killing its crew and 44 passengers. Aboard the ill starred flight was Beverly Eckart who joined her husband Sean in heaven, a 9/11 victim. Mrs. Eckart, great American, co-chairperson of the Voices of 9/11, was traveling to a high school ceremony at Clearance, where the plane went down, to celebrate her husband's 58th birthday-the two first met at this school. A sad, touching story, brings tears to my eyes.

In the space of 28 days we were given signs of the age that just passed-with a President who kept us safe after 9/11-and the tragic age that is upon us with an appeasing, placating, soft-on terror President, Neville Chamberlain's avatar Munich bound to Tehran, Moscow, Caracus and elsewhere. God help us all, Conservative, Liberal, Republican, Democrat. God help us all.
