Bill Clinton in Haiti on 757. Who's is it?

[HawkerF/O]

An airline? Paul Allen's? never could get a good shot of the tail #.

 

[Brett Hull]

Was it this one? I know he's used it before:

So Clinton can land but relief aid can't.

That happened to my company yesterday, we held for over TWO hours because some politician decided to blast in there. We ended up diverting.

 

[PilotKitch]

Don't recognize the paint job, articles says he was part of UN convoy.

 

[CRJCA]

I saw him in Slovenia a few months back in a 767, which belonged to Google. Perhaps them or North American?

Clinton's leadership and inspiration is important to the recovery effort. Haitians love him as he was instrumental in bringing back Aristide. Bush won't go there as him and his pop both staged coups to keep/get Aristide out.

Except Bush is working with Bill on this one. Bill has been the Haiti go-to guy since before the quake.

Aristide was as corrupt as the Duvalier's. (sp)

Bush still won't set foot on Haiti for said reasons. If he somehow does so, the Haitians might be too distracted with their plight to care about Bush. Nevertheless, the majority of Haitians are pro Aristide.

Nope, not even close.

Well, THAT's a ringing endorsement.

 

[HighSpeedClimb]

He also was responsible for shutting down Aloha Airlines....schmuck

Honestly, who cares what happens in Haiti? As long as they don't come here. Yes harsh, yeah a miserible place to live, yes we have our own problems to deal with in the country........

Isolationist. Ahhh, yes, that's just the kind of thing we want to hear. haven't we had enough of that already, Sleepy?

In some respects, I agree. I don't want them, Mexicans, or anyone else coming here and acting like they own the place. I hate that sh!t. But to say 'Who cares', well, that's just looking at the situation through a simple mind. Simple.

When we were attacked on 9/11, it's a good thing other nations didn't say that to US. I still remember the parade of Head's of State at daily pressers outside the State Department with Powell extending us EVERY courtesy. There was a new one every day. For weeks that went on. They helped with intelligence, airspace waivers for our military, etc.

I think a better attitude to the plight of others would make all of us better people, but I'm sure that's something you don't care about. I hope I'm wrong.

I've had Mr. Burkle as a passenger. He and Clinton are good buddies. Interesting guy.

I have traveled all over the third world. It is a sad situation in all of these places. I feel sorry for the people who live in them, but honestly we can't help them all, there just are not enough resources to go around. Or their corrupt leaders steal the resources.

I know that a lot of people around the world cheered the 911 attacks against us. I am not cheering for anything bad to happen in Haiti or anywhere else. I just feel like we have plenty of problems to deal with here, and we can't save everyone. Let the Chinese do it........
