John Boehner Departs From Nancy Pelosi's Expensive Air Travel Demands

Nancy Pelosi is a study of how personal self-interest creates more debt for taxpayers. The only member of the House of Representatives to receive a military jet for travel is the Speaker. Pelosi's four years included an upgrade to a much larger jet, all because she hated the inconvenience of having to refuel in Kansas, and over $100,000 liquor bill to keep the plan in good spirits. That's just the tip of the ice berg. She will lose these privileges in a month in a half as she no longer presides in the House set up for common men.

John Boehner will replace her, and he has vowed not to maintain Pelosi's outlandish airplane demands. In fact, he will be flying commercial just like Pelosi will come January.

“Over the last 20 years, I have flown back and forth to my district on commercial aircraft, and I am going to continue to do that,” Boehner said.

However neither Pelosi nor Boehner, or any other member of Congress for that matter, will have to worry about getting their junk felt up. They are given a free pass around the TSA. So much for being a house of common men after all. I thought in this country, all men were created equal. I guess that isn't true when it comes to the TSA.
