U.S. Air Force Took Away Nancy Pelosi’s Jet!

Well, at least they're cutting somewhere. I mean, we could save millions just by cutting off Pelosi's bar tab.

Here's the article:

The real reason that Nancy Pelosi is considering retiring is that they took her Jet away. Ah, poor baby!

As a result of a Judicial Watch filing under the Freedom of Information Act, the USAF released documents detailing House Speaker use of United States Air Force aircraft between March 2009 and June 2010.

Here are the main highlights revealed by the USAF. Keep in mind that all the data below relate to United States Air Force aircraft used by one woman over a sixteen month period. Several of these flights included Ms. Pelosi’s guests, such as grown children, grandchildren, various in-laws, friends and hangers-on.

Over 95% of the trips were between the west coast and Washington DC , for what you might call a commute between home and the office. READ it and WEEP!!

Total trips: 85 over a 68 week period, or 1.25 average trips per week.
Total mileage: 206,264 miles, or 2,427 average miles per trip.
Total flying time: 428.6 hours, or an average of 5 hours per trip.
Cost to the taxpayers: $2,100,744, or $27,715 per trip, or $1,285,162 per year!
Cost of in flight food and alcohol: $101,429; $1,193 per trip; $62,051 per year.


On one junket to Baghdad, according to the Air Force report, she had the aircraft bar stocked with Johnny Walker Red Scotch, Grey Goose Vodka, E&J Brandy, Bailey’s Irish Cream, Maker’s Mark Whiskey, Courvoisier Cognac, Bacardi Rum, Jim Beam Whiskey, Beefeater Gin, Dewar’s Scotch, Bombay Sapphire Gin, Jack Daniels Whiskey, Corona Beer and several varieties of wine.

This was obviously a very important “gubment bidness” trip. Evidence generally speaks for itself, and in Ms. Pelosi’s case it speaks the language of abuse and (evidently) a serious familial drinking problem, for in a single year she and her spawn drank an amount in excess of the net income of the average employed American!

When she said, “… If the stimulus doesn’t pass, five hundred million (the US only has about 300 million including children) people might lose their jobs…”, thought she was unintentionally revealing her ignorance. Now more inclined to think she was pickled.

Even though she can no longer abuse the USAF, she can either fly on her broom, or fly Southwest Airlines, where bags fly free. Strange we haven’t seen this story covered on MSNBC?

It's time to retire, Ms. Pelosi.
That's nothin'. Barry's day trip earlier this week to Vegas to speak about giving illegal aliens free American citizenship cost over $1 million just in Air Force One cost alone! Fuck Global Warming, I'm Barack Obama, Bitch!

Take away the trees and the birds
All have to sit upon the ground,
Take away their wings and
The birds will have to walk to get around
And take away the bird baths
And dirty birds will soon be ev'rywhere
Take away their feathers and
The birds will walk around in underwear

I thought some liberals would join in to lament how the government is mistreating Queen Nancy. I guess not.
COG, did you hear a single liberal complain how "not green" it was for Obama to fly to LV and back to give a speech he could have given from the Rose Garden? After he made Climate Change such a big part of his second inaugural speech?

I know you don't have a TV so I'll tell you.

None. Not a single peep out of any msm or liberal media outlet: television or website.

They are unashamed hypocrites.
