Princess Pelosi is a precious resource


"This leadership team will create the most honest, most open, and most ethical Congress in history" - Speaker-Elect Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Press Release, November 16, 2006

Or in other words, open mouth and insert foot.

Recent findings report that Ms. Ethics herself has made a habit of requesting, nay, demanding use of Air Force jets to make trips around the country. Kind of funny when you remember that she campaigned on the promise to clean up the GOP's waste of taxpayer dollars and to end the era of congressional elitism.

The aircraft that madame speaker has grown accustomed to using is the same that takes the Vice President and First Lady around the country. The reported cost to taxpayers is around $15,000 per hour which equates to $300,000 for her to take a trip to sunny San Francisco.

Madame Botox doesn't fly commercial and won't take the smaller commuter jet that the former speaker took is because it isn't big enough to fit her staff, supporters, and other members of her California delegation. There is also a concern that the smaller jet would have to stop to refuel which would create certain inefficiencies. Hmmmmmm, I say the less time she spends doing her job the better.

The devil in Prada recently requested use of the military jet to fly to Williamsburg, VA for some sort of commie party. Seriously? I served my mission in that area, Williamsburg is a 2.5 hour drive from D.C.!

Here are some of my favorite quotes from her staff to the military when they were notified that the aircraft wouldn't be available.
"This is not good news, and we will have some very disappointed folks, as well as a very upset Speaker."
"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,"
One implied threat from the patriot Jack Murtha who is on the committee that controls the Pentagons money, "You want money for the Iraq war? You better give the speaker her plane."

I feel all warm and fuzzy inside that this beast is just two heartbeats away from the presidency.

I'm sure O'Reilly would agree with me when I say that Nancy Pelosi is a pinhead.
