Why, golly! How is our Squeaker of the House going to haul her Royal Hindass around the country? Why, I think a Royal Carriage carried by slaves might do for her.
What an a##hole! Typical liberal hypocrasy!

Isn't a C-20 a Gulfstream III? If it is, it most certainly CAN fly coast to coast--especially with long runways like Andrews AFB and San Fran Intl!!! The statement that a GIII cannot fly coast to coast is ridiculous.

In response to the Pentagon offer, Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly tells ABC News, "We appreciate the Defense Department's continuing concern for the Speaker's security. We are reviewing their letter."Such a class act. Just like the Clintons.

Hate to say it, folks, but she has a point. If a Speaker was from Hawaii, she would be entitled to secure transport and a C-20 probably won't do it.
OTOH, she's not from Hawaii, and a fuel stop is not a horrible price to pay to not be flying commercial.

Good for the Pentagon. The refueling issue is silly. Don't these planes refuel at military bases (the safest places in the US)?

It has a nice ring to it! They couldn't say screw you you diva Beeatch!
Anybody notice her boy Murtha pressure for the plane? I guess that shows how much respect the Pentagon has for Murtha.

Good! They didn't cave on this one.I hope they don't? But I'm afraid that this is just the end of round one!I hardly think that Pelosi will drop the issue and simply say, "OK"!!!!!!

Pelosi has expressed concern about having to stop and refuel, primarily for security reasons, her office says.Ain't that a hoot; the very war she's trashing she now uses as an excuse to get a 757! Yeah, you read that right; that's what she wanted.
And she wanted to take the press and her friends with her.
And if she's worried about security, she can land at a military base.

Maybe if the commute is too hard for Nancy, she should quit her job.

Did you know she demanded a 757? Bigger than Air Force one!

I was laughing few days ago when someone published a poll that Pelosi has 49% favorable rating! Well let us wait and see what is her approval rating in six months from now.

I think they will cave on the refueling issue but not on the entorage issue.
