Critics charge that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is abusing the perks of power by asking for a jumbo military jet with sleeping accommodations for her flights across the country.
After the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the Pentagon agreed to provide the speaker, who is second in the line of presidential succession, with a military plane for added security during trips back home.
Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert, an Illinois Republican, flew in a small commuter-sized Air Force jet.
Pelosi wants a larger aircraft that can fly to her San Francisco district without stopping to refuel.
Some sources are claiming that Pelosi demanded access to the C-32, which seats 45 and has a stateroom for the primary passenger, a conference facility, an entertainment system and three convertible beds.

Pretty sure that the Sergeant at Arms for the house has said that this was his idea. Refueling is a security risk. (I don't agree that it is.)
Just hate to see a story flogged when it's already dead.

Isn't she wealthy?
Isn't she one of the plitical hacks who claim they themselves are "not paying enough taxes?
Why doesn't she lease the jets she needs -- as a service to her country?
To: blogblogginaway
She probably also wants a Filipino Steward , a Black Cook and a maid to help her get ready for bed.
It isnt easy to please THE richest woman in the Senate, she has grown accustomed to her way of life and now feels the United States citizens should provide for her in the way she has become accustomed.
Meanwhile she is in the Senate fighting for the poor ,the lower middle class.Bwaahahahahahhahahaha.
She hasnt got any idea what being poor is like.

Air Force told pelosi that they could never take the plane she wants out of the active inventory for her sole use. We don't have that many of these type planes to dedicate to the Speaker of the House.
Then Tony Snow comes along and says he understands what she is asking. Well I don't understand why there isn't an uproar since she also wanted a 15-member crew dedicated to her. That is Bravo Sierra!
