  • Pelosi's Air Travel Demands

    Jetgate

    I never have liked this woman but I'm not surpised with her lack of concern over wasting taxpayer money. It's what she does best.

        Pretty intersting stuff. Pelosi has full power to grant (or not grant) members the rights to fly on military VIP/SAM aircraft. They get a little testy it seems when they get told no...

        This is not good news, and we will have some very disappointed folks, as well as a very upset speaker
        This was in response to a government e-mail saying they couldn't fill all the speakers flight requests.

        another was demanding to know why a members spouse couldn't get an airplane without the member actually flying:

        Can you please give me the law/rule that states that a spouse may not get on a military plane without the Member? Thanks
        or pissed about the airforce didn't keep their an ample supply of Gulfstreams at the Pelosi beck and call

        It is my understanding that there are no G5s available for the House during the Memorial Day recess. This is totally unacceptable.

        The speaker will want to know where the planes are, and why they cannot even support....
        Judicial Watch summarized the information received from FOIA as the following:

        Originally posted by Judicial Watch
        "Taken together, these documents show that Speaker Pelosi treats the Air Force like her personal airline," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. "Not only does Speaker Pelosi issue unreasonable requests for military travel, but her office seems unconcerned about wasting taxpayer money with last minute cancellations and other demands."

          It doesn't surprise me that the people of San Francisco elected her, but how she got Congressional Democrats to make her Speaker I have no idea.

          She is a dream target for Republicans, if they'll only go after her.

            She needs to retire to spend more time with her grandchildren.

            Has anyone checked her taxes yet?

              Seems Judical Watch got it wrong. As a matter of fact it seems W felt it was necessary for the Speaker to have access to military aircraft and was defended by Socialist Tony Snow


              Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat, is the speaker of the House. She made history as the first woman elected speaker of the House in 2007. She also served as House Minority Leader from 2011 to 2018. She represents California's 12th congressional district, which covers most of San Francisco.


              WASHINGTON — The White House on Thursday came to the defense of Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, describing as "silly" reports about her use of a large Air Force transport plane to travel back and forth from her West Coast district.

              "This is a silly story and I think it's been unfair to the speaker," White House spokesman Tony Snow said at a morning briefing with reporters.

              "We think it's important that the speaker of the House enjoy the same kind of security that we arranged for Speaker Hastert in the wake of September 11th. And like I said, I think that there's been a lot of over-hyped reporting on this," Snow said.

              Judicial Watch president says Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi crosses the line in requesting military aircraft for travel, adding that she "treats the Air Force like her personal airline."


              The treasure trove of documents obtained by Judicial Watch from the Department of Defense regarding Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's use of military aircraft doesn't seem to prove the organization's allegation that Pelosi has made "unprecedented demands" for the flights.

              In fact, it appears that Pelosi uses military aircraft less often than her predecessor, former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert


              Lets see what those liberals on Fact Check say
