She is talking about flying almost 3000 miles on the tax payer's nickle and has to complain about making a 2 hour fuel stop?

If she was flying on the Air Force jet that Hastert used, that fuel stop would be more like 30 minutes at an Air Force base. This whole issue is bogus - nothing more than her ego out of control.

I am factoring in descend from cruise, land, taxi, fuel, taxi, takeoff, climb to cruise altitude. Add in some weather and traffic and a two hour add on to travel is acceptable.

Beats showing up two hours before a flight, stripping bear-butt naked and being sent through a series of scanners and what not, only to find out you have been bumped or your flight has been canceled. These bureaucrats make up all sorts of laws for us peons, but they think they should live differently? Pisses me off!
