Video: 85-year-old former President jumps out of a perfectly good plane
posted at 6:22 pm on June 12, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
Thankfully, no one has suggested this for my birthday. It’s hard enough to get me onto a plane in the first place; I’m not likely to jump out of one unless I’m completely out of options, parachute and wingman or not. However, former President and World War II pilot George H. W. Bush celebrated his birthday with a short plane ride up and an even shorter flight back down:
Happy Birthday, Mr. President. We’re impressed.
Blowback

She needs to join Fox News. She’s way too hot for CNN.

Ed the jumping is the easy part, sometimes that “landing” doesn’t quite go off as planned.
Happy Birthday President Bush!

As I’ve said before…
There’s a real crop of pros at the VA these days…
I’m sure there are some contract people in the outpatient clinics that are subpar…but over all I’m glad they’re there…I’m uninsureable which makes me all the more gratful.

I’d put him to work ar Prez. right now. At least he’d scare off our enemies. Not like that limp wristed Obama.
Obama is too busy looking at himself in a mirror to even try to pretend he’s qualified to be C in C.
