I Believe Warren Buffet Was Involved as Well as President Clinton

[rsmith6621]

....Looking at the aircraft that President Clinton took to North Korea it looks like one out of Warren Buffets fleet so if that is fact a thanks should go to him as well,the markings on the 737 fuselage look like BUFFETS. I doubt if he would send a bill to the government for such a humanitarian cause...



Thanks Mr Buffet.

WASHINGTON - A wealthy Hollywood producer and a major corporation paid for the flight that carried former President Bill Clinton and two American journalists home from North Korea, prompting a word of thanks Wednesday from former Vice President Al Gore and the freed reporters during an emotional airport reunion.

Stephen Bing, a close Clinton friend and longtime Democratic fundraiser, is the plane's owner, confirmed Marc Foulkrod of Burbank, Calif., chairman of Avjet Corp., the company that manages the aircraft.

CNN coverage this morning. ANd Wiki already has it:

On the 18 December 2008, the William J. Clinton Foundation released a list of all contributors. It included Stephen L. Bing, who gave between US$10–25 million.<1>

On August 5, 2009, a 737 private aircraft owned by Stephen Bing and based out of hangar 25 at the Burbank airport in Southern California, was utilized in the return of American reporters Laura Ling and Euna Lee who had spent 5 months of a 12 year sentence, in North Korea. Former President Bill Clinton was instrumental in their return, and accompanied the reporters on board Stephen Bing's plane. Bing reportedly covered the cost of the entire flight, estimated to be around $200,000.
