"Nightline" co-anchor Terry Moran, who is interviewing President Obama today in Fort Myers, Florida, has been Twittering this morning from Air Force One.

Moran's Tweets indicate that:

* pancakes, bacon, and eggs are on the Air Force One breakfast menu, and Twix and Snickers are among the onboard snacks
* music on the Presidential Plane includes Jason Mraz, Goldfrapp, "lots of John Legend," Rihanna, and Jeremy Pelt
* President Obama high-fived children at Andrews Air Force Base
* nine members of Congress are on the flight, all of them Democrats

Moran's Tweets below:

# Air Force One landing. Obama visited press cabin, taking congresspeople on tour, joking, relaxed. 4 minutes ago from mobile web

# Air Force one, taking off. 9 members of Congress aboard, all Democrats. about 2 hours ago from mobile web

# Obama working the rope line, high-fiving little kids, thanking the troops. about 2 hours ago from mobile web

# Music on AF1 includes: Jason Mraz, Goldfrapp, lots of J Legend, Rihanna, + Jeremy Pelt! about 2 hours ago from mobile web

# On board Air Force One. Pancakes, bacon and eggs on the menu. Twix and snickers for snacks. about 3 hours ago from mobile web

# Arrived at Andrews. Security smooth and courteous. Wondering if $1.5 trillion is enough to save the banks. about 4 hours ago from mobile web

# I'm en route to Andrews AFB to ride AF1 to FL. Got a question for Obama? about 5 hours ago from mobile web

Moran's interview with President Obama will air on ABC News "Nightline" tonight at 11:35pm (ET/PT). Excerpts will also air on "World News with Charles Gibson" and will be featured across ABC News' broadcasts and platforms.

2. I gotta admit it- I must be out of the loop. I never have listened to
Edited on Tue Feb-10-09 07:31 PM by panader0
any of those musicians, and I'm in a band. Where's the Stevie Ray Vaughn, Johnny Lang, Robert Cray, B.B. King?
Course, I never heard of "tweets" either.

9. Not Jason Mraz or Rihanna?...poor girl, hope she is okay
She got beaten up by her boyfriend Chris Brown (also a singer)the other night right before the Grammy's. She is such a beautiful young woman, I hope she never sees the creep again. At least he got arrested:(
Tweets has to do with Twitter, is like an online messaging service where you can send little messages to people and they message you back or something like that. I don't know, I don't have a Twitter account.

3. I love that someone programmed Goldfrapp for AF1!
Someone, I wish I knew who, has good taste in music.

14. We have a lot in common music wise ;=D
I :loveya: Happy Rhodes: I'm a huge fan since Equipoise

Back when NPR played music, "Save Our Souls" was my introduction to Happy's music. I just had to have the CD and I wasn't disappointed in the other music. In fact I had to purchase her other CD's as well. It's too bad she gets overlooked by the labels, but at least she has her own label, so we can support her and her beautiful music.


I :loveya: Groldfrapp as well. Nice to hear that AF1 has someone with good musical taste.

5. Sounds interesting
Edited on Tue Feb-10-09 07:46 PM by politicasista
Just like the A-Rod story, I bet a reporter last night wanted to ask him what he thought about the Rihanna/Chris Brown incident.

Air Force One sounds cool, although I hope they spend more time on serious things. People are hurting big time out here.

6. Pancakes, bacon, and eggs? I knew the liberal media couldn't wait
to divulge important information necessary to our national security. This is a time of war, and our new liberal wussbag President is letting the drive-by media tell the terrorists everything they want to know about Air Force One's enhanced breakfast protocols.

7. "Nightline" is a pretty decent nightly program. During the Iraq War about 4 or 5 years ago,
they wanted to read out all the names of the dead soldiers, on either July 4, or the first anniversary since it began.

A sizable number of ABC affiliates declined to air the segment, opting to show other programming instead.

8. Jeremy Pelt! Yeah!
It's nice for a change to have a Prez that digs the same music that I do.

13. I think Twitter in general is stupid. And any producer or editor worth their pay shoud not
be letting their reporters use it.

We've been dumbed down enough.

OOOhhhh! Twix!!!!...........:puke:
