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

Yes, and she still played the gender-card. I heard her do it LIVE today...it was sickening. As she is sickening.
He's working on one right now guaranteed ... Saturday Night Live won't let this one go away either. Just to much good material here ...
'If I don't get my plane I am going to throw a fit on the house floor' and I mean a real fit too!
The size of the plane wasn't the supposed reason she needed a change, however. She claimed it was a "security issue" because the smaller plane would have to land once to refuel in a coast-to-coast flight. That doesn't cut much ice with me, since there must be a dozen military airfields on that flight path that the plane could put down. If she isn't safe on one of those, we've got a bigger problem than just her.
Don't any of these idiots know anything but how to blow money?
Security isn't important at all as far as I can see.
I doubt her Islamic terrorists pals would shoot her down, even if they did accidently, the nation wouldn't grind to a halt.
In fact, I doubt anyone would even notice, except another rat of course.
If it's a military aircraft, it also puts a tremendous burden on the basse commmander who would have to provide VIP treatment for the queen and her followers.
The exciting news of the day is tht Plane-gate has replaced Plame-gate. Poor Joe. He won't be happy about this.
I wish people would stop saying that. Do you have any idea how much tasking a tanker for refueling Nazi Pelosi's plane in flight would cost?
Besides, there are plenty of Gulfstream jets in the fleet that have transcon range.
She's just another arrogant limousine liberal, with delusions of grandeur.
Somewhere over the Rockies....
Pilot: Madam speaker?
Nazi: Yes?
Pilot: could you pull that yellow handle for me please?

Do you realize that Pelosi is far too important to be slowed down for refueling?
The sarcasm in my original comment was not obvious enough. I should have suggested that she should fly a nuclear powered plane that only has to be refueled once every 5 years. I think that she is being a petulant whiner for not wanting to stop for an hour to be refueled in a smaller jet as opposed to her personal 757.
"Did I ever tell you that my ggggg grandfather was from Orange County and we believe a Regulator?"
If you're comfortable posting it here, what was his name? And, did he end up Patriot or Tory in the Revolution? Many, but a long way from all, former Regulators were Tory, primarily due to reflexive opposition to the eastern planter aristocracy, whom they dispised. On the Patriot side, many of the "Over The Mountain Men" who defeated Ferguson at King's Mountain were former Regulators as well.
My own interest in the Regulator War came through a couple of my 4G or 5G grandfathers, none in my direct paternal line. The only one you'd likely have heard of was Ninian Hamilton; there's an old Regulator song or "doggerel poem" about him and Fanning meeting on the Eno. Had another 4G who was orphaned due to an indian attack and bound out to Benjamin Merrell, who had a fair amount of notoriety, being one of those hung after the Battle Of Alamance.
I've no problem with that. However, all Hastert had was an executive jet, not a flying pleasure dome. There are lots of executive jets with the range to go nonstop from DC to SF. If security requires her to ride in a private jet, that's what she ought to have, no more.
>>If we provide a plane for the speaker it makes sense it should be a plane that can fly from California to Washington.
Perhaps someone can tell this b*tch, that the last time anyone checked, the American people did not elect her as queen.
Yet in another article she said she needed it even more because she is a woman. She's sounding more and more like Kerry every day.
Tony Snow, just like EVERY OTHER REPUBLICAN MAN, has fallen into the "Be Nice To The Girl" TRAP!
Nancy wants the plane that will hold MANY FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS!!
Beautiful response. I like Jacobus, and she should be the WH spokes"person" for awhile. Good hardball stuff, instead of pussypantywaiste crap.
