Learn from former Governor of Massachusetts a Republican, Jane Swift

BOSTON (AP) — Jane Swift gave birth to a baby girl three weeks before her election as Massachusetts' lieutenant governor in 1998, rankling conservatives who said a woman shouldn't combine career and family.

Now she's giving them plenty of reason to say, ``I told you so.''

Jan 13,2000 After a weeklong furor, the state's most prominent working mom apologized Wednesday for using aides to baby sit and for taking a state police helicopter to get home because 14-month-old Elizabeth Ruth had pneumonia.

The problem is that with Hastert's abuse of the system. You now have the nose under the tent. So just get ready to see millions shelled out to haul her sorry butt. Thanks again Mr. Hastert.

I for one have no problem with it. As long as Nancy and family take and pass a full basic training regimen like the rest of the military that is fine with me.

However if the entire family; does no sweaty pt training, no military chow, no kp duty, no weapons training, no crawling around on an obstacle course, no living and uniform inspections, no saluting of officers, no 15 mile marches in the sun or snow, no cleaning of the latrines (heads), no living on military pay for the entire basic, no physicals in a line, no shaving of hair, policing of the base grounds, no over nights in the boonies, no eating of cold meals out of plastic bags, no using the outdoors for their bathroom facilities, no military hair cuts... then no flights on military aircraft.
