-Queen Pelosi's New Jet

It would seem that Nancy's Gulfstream III, that comes with the Speaker's job just couldn't quite cut it when it came to shuttling back and forth from D.C. to California. Queen Pelosi was aggravated that this little jet had to stop to refuel, so she ordered a 200-seat, USAF C-32, Boeing 757 jet that could get her back to California without stopping.

Since she only works three days a week, this gas guzzling jet gets fueled and she flies home to California every Friday and returns every Monday, at a cost to the taxpayers of about $60,000, one way. That is $480,000 per month and that is an annual cost to us of $5,760,000.

Not to mention her "carbon footprint." Government hypocrisy knows no bounds.
