Air force Quote by Seth Meyers
“Louis Caldera, the White House Aide who authorized the controversial photograph of Air Force One over Manhattan resigned on Friday. May I suggest that they replace him with PhotoShop. You don't have to fly Air Force One over Manhattan to get a picture of Air Force One over Manhattan. Look here's Air Force One at the pyramids. Here it is in a crowded elevator. And here it is on the red carpet with the Space Shuttle. And of course there is the popular children's book, 'Where's Air Force One?'”
