US Airways Flight 1549


During the Bush administration, the landing of stricken US Airways Flight 1549 into the Hudson River, averting any loss of life would be characterized as a "miracle."

In the Obama administration, the landing of the plane in the Hudson with all 155 passengers and crew safe (one passenger suffered two broken legs, others experienced hypothermia from exposure to the wind and freezing water) is called "professionalism" and "competence."

Welcome to the new administration!
