Obama's private air force

Good to see the preshizzle's got his priorities in order:
The U.S. Air Force is pulling nine cargo aircraft from military operations to support President Barack Obama’s stepped-up visits to campaign events.

The five medium-capacity C-130s and four heavyweight C-17s will be used to ferry security vehicles, armored limousines and communications gear into cities ahead of Obama’s campaign appearances.
Update - Jonah, in the comments:
On the first Air Force transport
the taxpayers paid for me
My wife's staff of hundred ninety three...

On the ninth Air Force transport the taxpayers paid for me,
nine marble columns,
eight by-o-graphers,
seven rock stars grov'ling
sixty virgins fainting
five pizza chefs...
forty journalists
fed by forty chaperones
My two little girls
And my wife's staff of hundred...
Ninety...
Threee!

  4. Interesting, because there is an agreement facilitating the process when the USAF needs to borrow one or more of the RCAF's (4) C17s.

    Cheers

  5. Barry should reconsider this strategy. The huge spike in demand will put upward pressure on oil prices, thus diminishing his re-election prospects. He should just hold more online chats.
