As expected, President Obama apologized this morning for the ridiculously stupid Air Force One flight over New York City: POTUS on AF1 incident: ‘Mistake … Won’t Happen Again’.

President Obama just spoke about the Air Force One incident in a photo op with FBI Director Robert Mueller.

“It was a mistake, as was stated. It was something we found out about along with all of you. And it will not happen again.”

President Obama didn’t answer a follow-up question on whether the head of White House Military Office, Louis Caldera, is the right man for the job.

He’s getting very good at apologizing. But the other question that needs answering is: at a time of great financial crisis, combined with the largest federal budget in history, why is money being wasted on unnecessary extravagances like this?
