Isn't that plane that Obama flies on AIR FORCE ONE? It's not Democrat One. Therefore, all retired Veterans are eligible to fly on it on a Space Available basis. How many seats do they have on that baby? Throw all the news people out. They aren't Veterans. They can charter a jet. That will help the economy anyway. And how in the world does Obama and his family use our planes for free for their vacations? Even a general or admiral can't book a military transport "for a vacation". If we are all going to have to sacrifice, like the retired Veterans COLA, then Obama can have a few of us old Veterans ride with him. It's our plane and our benefit, too. He's got the big bucks now. He can pay for that jet for vacations. He can't cover it out of his pay? That's OK. He can get those retirement checks with "No Pay Due" on them for the rest of his life. He wants to be all egalitarian, then so be it. CBS News reported that Obama is Commander In Chief, so he gets military healthcare. OK. Him and all the Congress can go to the military or VA hospital in their home state for treatment. It's only fair.
How ironic. i just spent 1000 dollars flying my son home from his base in seattlt. AF1 would have worked for me.
Merry Christmas.

Well...
...without regard to how he got there, one thing I haven’t seen anybody bring up anywhere:
He does have to go pay his respects to Fuddy (you know) /s
(fire away)
And since we’re on the subject, I’ve not seen an analysis of the economic cost every time JAIC jets around on vacations, golf excursions & fund-raising trips. The EC I refer to: The total shutdown of every airport he flies into.
Maybe there is one, but I’ve not seen a thread on FR listing experiences of those caught in THAT frustrating web.
Merry Christmas to all... God bless us every one.
