Flying The Unfriendly Skies

Thank you for flying Obama Derangement Syndrome airlines. Your captain today is GOP State Sen. Dave Schultheis of Colorado Springs. He loves to fly, and it shows.

Colorado State Sen. Dave Schultheis (R-Colorado Springs) posted a tweet yesterday that called for a derailing of President Obama's agenda in a rather bold way. The blog Colorado Pols caught the statement from Schultheis's account.

"Don't for a second, think Obama wants what is best for U.S. He is flying the U.S. Plane right into the ground at full speed. Let's Roll," the tweet reads.

"Let's roll" were the final words of Todd Beamer, a passenger aboard United Airlines Flight 93, one of the four flights hijacked on September 11 and the only one to crash before reaching its intended target. The flight was diverted to Washington, D.C. after it was hijacked, but crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers tried to thwart the hijackers.

Is there a bulletin board post over at the RNC cafeteria that announced a contest for the most offensive Twitter reference to the President as a terrorist or something? I mean do you get a $50 gift card to Outback Steakhouse or something if you win?

Honestly, this is starting to get frigging ridiculous.
