Well, I wish I could say I was happy the Dems made it back to the majority. But less than a month after taking power, and after all those beautiful agenda items of the Hundred Hours, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has made the highly unwise decision to ask for a jumbo jet to ferry her home to California.

She makes this move after creating the new global warming committee, headed by Rep Markey.

All I can say is obviously the third person in line for the presidency should have government transportation. But what is wrong with the 12 person jet former Speaker Hastert used, the only problem seems to be the smaller plane is unable to make the CA-DC trip non-stop.
This is just unacceptable. With all the talk of global warming and dependence on foreign oil, we're supposed to shuttle around another elected official on a jumbo jet? I don't think so.
