But, I believe the point here is that it's hard for the Republicans
to bash on Pelosi for how much GREENHOUSE GASSES her friggin' alleged
airplane, which she doesn't have and hasn't used and according to the
WHITE HOUSE didn't request, when they're doing the same thing.


Fair 'nuff, but you must admit the irony of Pelosi (a supporter of the
theory that human activity is the root of global warming) arriving at a
global warming conference in a gas-guzzling Suburban SUV (taxpayer-funded,
of course) and wanting regular cross-country trips in jet aircraft. Forget
party affiliation.

If you think human activity is causing global warming and you're the Number
3 leader of the country, put action to your rhetoric and lead by example.
(For the record, I believe I read recently she owns a hybrid SUV as a
personal vehicle.)

Hey, stop pointing out that hyper hypocrisy! No fair. Hybrid SUV, and
she wants a personal airliner jet to haul her butt from one end of the
country on demand, at everyone else's expense of course. Sort of
reminds you of Al Gore taking a Boeing 707 (yes that's seven ought
seven) with a few cronies to attend a meeting in Japan about the horrors
of global warming a few years back! What better way to preach about the
environment than take the least efficient, noisiest, dirtiest plane you
can find?

Congress recently declared a crackdown on riding for free on corporate
jets. Now we see the outcome of that, fly even bigger jets and send the
bill to the poor taxpayer.
