As if organised by the CIA

Joe Biden slips in and out of Shannon unknown to our own Dept of Foreign Affairs.

THE DEPARTMENT of Foreign Affairs says it had no information about a stop-off by US vice-president Joe Biden at Shannon airport on Monday night.

A spokesman for the department said it was “conceivable” Mr Biden had visited the airport without informing them as he was scheduled to visit eastern Europe this week. Senior sources at Shannon airport said there was tight security when Air Force Two, the official aircraft of the vice-president, touched down on a refuelling stop shortly after 11pm.

    In all fairness Shannon is just an airport, and it is hardly surprising that a plane might land there having crossed the Atlantic. In fact that’s one of the reasons we put it there. The idea from the media that we should make a big deal of it goes back when we were mighty insecure about who we were and shows their celebrity obsession.
