Air Pelosi

Imentioned that I do not like hypocrites. Well, I don't. This includes, but is not limited to, politicians. Politicians like Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi:
This is PELOSI'S NEW JET!

Queen Pelosi wasn't happy with the small USAF C-20B jet, Gulf Stream III that comes with the Speaker's job ... OH NO! Queen Pelosi was aggravated that this little jet had to stop to refuel, so she ordered a Big Fat, 200-seat, USAF C-32, Boeing 757 jet that could get her back to California without stopping!

Since she only works 3 days a week, this gas guzzling jet gets fueled, and she flies home to California every Friday and returns every Monday, at a cost to the taxpayers (YOU and ME are those taxpayers!) of about $60,000, one way!

Unfortunately we have to pay to bring her back on Monday night and that costs us another $60,000! Taxpayers, that is $480,000 per month and that is an annual cost to us of $5,760,000!!!

Queen Pelosi wants you and me to conserve our carbon footprint. She wants us to buy smaller cars and Obama wants us to get a bicycle pump and air up our tires. Who do these people think they are???

This is outrageous. Keep in mind the figures above do NOT include the cost of plane or crew...just the fuel!!! One has to wonder what the total package costs us?

And on top of that ... now she wants to tax our IRA's & 401K's!
