    "The fact that the Bush twins were among the passengers in Albany had nothing to do with the decision, and airline officials may not have even known they were there, said US Airways spokesman David Castelveter."

    If I were the President I'd send AF1 for my 2 girls!

    This is a conspericy. We need to act now!

    Sh!t, I remember my sister got diverted from a flight to John Wayne airport instead to LAX. Every single passenger was expected to take a bus the 50 or so miles to the other airport...which ironically was where their luggage ended up; plus she landed less then 2 hours before the worst of the afternoon rush hour. I had to jump in my car from the one airport, scramble up there in time to meet her before she landed so she didn't get on the bus which would have left at the height of rush hour...then scramble her @SS down to JW through the early rush, because I couldn't pick up her luggage when I was there, as it hadn’t arrived.

    Stranded passenger policy my A$$, there was some influence there I am sure, cause my sister didn’t get that kind of treatment!

    But, who gives a phuck? Really? They are the President's daughters...

    Oh please, stop the chest pounding. Senators and the like have been doing that for years. It's not new. You'd be carping how they used AF1 to fly them..tax payer money being wasted.

    Yes it does!

    Not any more. I was stationed there years ago...at both USMCAS's that were there, I don't think either is an active base anymore, both slated for closure during the Clinton administration...

    I agree with amyb on this one. Jane "The RINO" Swift did this a couple of times and it pissed me off. AND I don't even live in the friggin state! On top of that, instead of stepping down as governor when she gave birth to her twins, she just decided to take 6 weeks off, plus extended days off here and there to be with them. I am all for a mother taking off time to be with her children, but she didn't need the money, and the job was political office not some office job with tenure. Come on.

    That's it, you're right! The girls are now working for the CIA as covert operatives, and they solidified these arrests yet they had to be out of the state quickly enough to not blow their cover...Brilliant! You really are smart, and it's not because your are Jewish...

    Maybe they got them out of there because as the Presidents daughters they are prime targets. It would have been prudent.

    Valid point...sorry that I condescended your initial reasoning. Next time, post your entire thought, that way I won't jump to conclusions...
