Glad you enjoyed it, lol. I haven't heard about two storms next week, all I saw was winter precip forecast for Monday night and Tuesday. You're further east, maybe the second is one of those offshore low pressure systems that don't quite affect us this far inland.

Well the technical meaning, to be more precise, not the numbers.

I love aircraft, but am stone dumb as to any numbers and most facts about them.

Well,she's caught looking like a royal hypocrite and she knows it. Since she can't play the race card,the old gender card will do.

Does this story have any legs outside the conservative media? I'm not sure what the fuss is other than to portray Pelosi as an arrogant hypocrite. But we already knew this.

Don't forget the necessary crew/stewards that would be required to attend to her entourage...

No, Nancy, it's all about hypocrisy, your hypocrisy. You and your buddy Al Gore are telling us that we should drive electric cars and you want to ride back and forth in a huge plane. You were going to cut federal spending, but you want your own huge jet. You wanted a higher minimum wage, as long as it didn't effect your own constituents' pocket book. You said that we couldn't afford to make the tax cuts permanent.

Either cut the crap, drop global warming, add American Samoa to the minimum wage, and make the tax cuts permanent or forget the plane.

Oh Good Christ -- save us from these wretched socialist pigs, and especially Nazi Pelosi --- now she is playing the gender-card. God help us. What a loon this socialist witch is. Talk about elitism and power-mainia. The ultimate in "flying limosine" liberalism.

Thanks to voters who made this nightmare possible.

Headline: "Spruce Goose to Service Air Pelosi"

Is it large enough to hold her entire ego??

Pelosi Announces the Creation of Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi released the following statement this afternoon announcing plans to create a Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming in the U.S. House of Representatives:


“Later this afternoon, the House will pass legislation that ends taxpayer-funded subsidies for Big Oil and creates a Strategic Energy and Renewables Reserve. For America to be safe and strong, we must take further decisive action now to free our country of its dependence on foreign energy sources and to confront the rising tide of global warming.


“Today, I am proud to announce plans to create a Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming to raise the visibility of these urgent issues and gather critical information to protect America’s security. The Select Committee will not have legislative jurisdiction, but will help develop information that will help us give these issues the legislative priority they demand.


“I am asking the committees that have jurisdiction over energy, environment and technology policy to report legislation on these issues by June. We hope to have legislation on global warming and energy independence through the committees by July 4th, so that this year, Independence Day is also ‘Energy Independence Day.’


“The science of global warming and its impact is overwhelming and unequivocal. We already have many of the technology and techniques that we need to reduce global warming pollution, and American ingenuity will supply the rest. With this new Select Committee, we demonstrate the priority we are giving to confront this most serious challenge.


“Now is time to act; the future of our country, indeed our entire planet, is at stake.”

She really does have a childish "mine is bigger than yours" attitude.

All lesbos have it. It's colder too.

Are you serious? Girls do need a big bathroom so that they can go with all their friends to gossip!

I don't see how the 'gender-card' can be played here since Pelosi is offered the same type of plane that Hastert used.

Pelosi has not been offered an inferior aircraft than what the former house speaker flew.

Why is it that everything Democrats touch immediately starts to wizz away money on an epic scale?
