Was that the playing the guitar part, or the looking out the plane window part?

Careful Drav, or you'll start sounding like the folks (see above) who still think Bush should've been psychically tuned in and known not to schedule a book reading at a school when the planes hit.

As for looking out the window - the Mayors, Governors, etc are all doing it too, it's how you get a good view of the devastation and can easily see where relief is deployed and where it isn't. Back in pre-tv and pre-helicopter eras leaders would do the same thing from high hills and towers. But any excuse to slam and the same naysayers jump right on it - gotta love their enthusiasm for the Bitch Brigade job.

Edited: eras, not areas. Damn fingers.
