Cleared for Takeoff

(Fox News) - The effort by some activists to stop the Blue Angels from performing at San Francisco's Annual Fleet Week apparently has failed — at least for this year. The proposed resolution banning the team from flying was tabled by a committee Monday.

Activists had cited last year's fatal accident at a Blue Angels show. But many San Franciscans suspected an anti-military agenda. The Angels have been the centerpiece of Fleet Week since 1981.
