Richard,
My point is not who flies on them but the "
hypocrisy " of the democratic run congress in this matter relative to
their objection to Corporate types using their jets for business. It
is a well known fact that Nancy Pelosi is one of those who takes
advantage of these jets for herself and family members, but not one
liberal two faced democrat says boo ! At $600,000,000 a piece in this
economy it is waste. In that respect both you and Mark get an " F
" !
