CNN reports that Nancy's B757 operating costs are $22,000.00 an hour. How many seats in a B757? It's Pelosi, and what B757? Can somebody identify "Nancy's B757" or demonstrate that she has ever used or even requested such at thing Here's one of the reasons I'm no longer a Republican. They lie like Democrats and then believe their own lies, and try to convince millions of otherwise-thinking people to believe them too. Even Tony Snow, on behalf of the White House, is telling them to STFU about it. "This is a silly story, and I think it's been unfair to the peaker." - Tony Snow. "It's not a question of size, it's a question of distance. We want an aircraft that can reach California." - Pelosi. "...I have said that I am happy to ride commercial if the plane they have doesn't go coast to coast." Dick Cheney flies to Jackson Hole in a C-17, doesn't he? -c It is not Nancy's. It is the speaker of the house. Condie has one, as does Dick. There are smaller airplanes, like learjets and Gulfstreams. much cheaper to run than the 757. CNN is going for the biggest bang for the buck and story. Michelle |

A USAF Major and another person told me that Cheney has a C-17 with him when he flies home to Jackson Hole. I was a little doubtful. But then I found this: http://www.mtexpress.com/2003/03-08-...8-06murphy.htm For this last stop before going to his vacation home in Jackson, Wyo., Cheney required: a.. The Air Force's largest transport, the four-jet C-17 Globemaster, to cart two armored Cadillac limousines and three Secret Service SUVs. b.. Two military Blackhawk helicopters for over-flight security and surveillance. c.. Two Air Force-operated twin-jet luxury Gulfstream jets. d.. An estimated two dozen Secret Service agents, plus vice presidential aides. e.. Added security from the Idaho State Police, Blaine County Sheriff's Office, and Bellevue, Hailey and Ketchum police departments stationed along state Highway 75. Counting a fund-raising stop in Salt Lake City that raised $300,000 and the Bellevue reception that harvested another $175,000, the irony is that government costs of this outing undoubtedly far exceeded contributions...
