Conversation 30 minutes prior to this,
Caldera, "Don't worry Mr. President, I'll fall on the sword. You wait 30 minutes and say how upset you are and say you're sorry and will never ever ever let me near that plane again."
Obama, "OK that sounds good, get someone to que that up on the teleprompter for me."
