Pelosi spends your tax dollars to jet family and friends around on military planes

[deportalllibs]

House speaker Pelosi has been spending your tax dollars treating herself, family, and friends to free trips on her private airline the US Air Force.

Rant Hat On: Pardon me but who the **** does Pelosi think she is wasting my god damn tax dollars jetting people the **** around like she is god damn Queen of England or something. She a ****ing elected public servant. I suggest she resign in disgrace for being a lying two faced hypocrite on ethics. End of rant!

From the Washington Post in November 2007 (while Bush was still president, I might add):


If she has people travel with her (which isn't surprising, since she's Speaker of the House and second in line of presidential succession), doesn't it make sense for them to travel in the same plane, since she has no choice but to use it anyway?

Her using a plane is one thing. But her making demands is unacceptable.


But Judicial Watch said that Pelosi was notorious for making special demands for high-end aircraft, lodging last-minute cancellations and racking up additional expenses for the military.
The e-mails showed repeated attempts by Pelosi aides to request aircraft, sometimes aggressively, and by Department of Defense officials to accommodate them.
"I think that's above and beyond what other members of Congress are doing and what is expected of our elected officials," said Jenny Small, a researcher with the group.
In one e-mail, aide Kay King complained to the military that they had not made available any aircraft the House speaker wanted for Memorial Day recess.
"It is my understanding there are NO G5s available for the House during the Memorial Day recess. This is totally unacceptable ... The Speaker will want to know where the planes are," King wrote.


But SPin away if you wish.

I suggest that everyone call the Speaker's Washington office:
202-225-0100.

Feel free to leave a nice message or call during the day tomorrow (the lines aren't usually that busy).

Just keep in mind that the secretary answering the phone today has a bit of an attitude. He likes to argue by cutting you off and will hang up to transfer you to voicemail. Seems like he doesn't like debate or public criticism. Obviously he fits in pretty well working for Queen Pelosi.

Well, she is frequently heard spouting the phrase "Culture of corruption." I didn't know she was talking about herself!
