She wanted the same plane Condi takes to the Middle East; 42 passengers, a bedroom, entertainment system, communications top notch.
As somebody else said, she wants it so she and Murtha can tour the world without having to ask.
The plane she wanted would cost $300,000 RT to SFO.
On the repeat of H&C, I just heard Alan Colmes say that it was not Pelosi that requested this plane but it was the Sargant at Arms who did. LOL
