New Jersy - Reports that New York Junior Senator Hillary Clinton, narrowly escaped injury when the aircraft she was piloting was forced to make an emergency landing in Southern New Jersey.

National Transportation Safety Board officials have issued a preliminary determination that pilot error contributed to the accident. The Senator was flying IFR [instrument flight rating] conditions, while having only obtained a VFR [visual flight rating] rating.

The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to a very limited amount of fuel on board. Fortunately, no one on the ground was injured.

The photograph below was taken at the scene shows there was very little damage to Senator Clinton's aircraft.

I loved the picture! Not all of us think of Hillary as the next possible President of the US. Of course, she couldn't screw it up much more than it already is. Just think your sister sent a great picture!

Well, see now, that's the deal. I would enjoy helping a person change their point of view, because I think there's a lot of mis-information out there about the Clinton's.

But.. nobody ever tells me why they think what they do.. can't counter an argument unless a point is made.

Oh.. and people who vote on the basis of looks probably shouldn't be voting.. I mean.. she cancelled out my vote and I spent more hours than you can imagine researching the facts. Ugh...
