Her Royal Speak Pelosi Hits Taxpayers with Thousands in Babysitting, Travel Bills
YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK
A neat bit of detective work by Judicial Watch and Doug Ross. Ross is to be congratulated for seeing that this is simply a clear illustration of one huge thing wrong with our system.
He’s also found one other nugget among the abuses: the military planes were used to ferry members of Pelosi’s family around the country when there were no congressional representatives on the plane.
Political representatives–in this case, Nancy Pelosi–who are so out of touch, they think it’s better that the military fly their family all over the U.S. at the cost of $18,000 per hour than to fly commercial.
Of course it’s better for Pelosi: Joe Sixpack paying her travel and babysitting bills is always better than if she has to.
Meet the Pelosi family! Using Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, Judicial Watch uncovered thousands of pages of travel documents related to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s use of military aircraft.
What hasn’t been revealed so far is that military aircraft are being used to shuttle Pelosi’s kids and grandkids between DC and San Francisco without any Congressional representatives even onboard! Put simply, the United States Air Force is serving as a multi-billion dollar chauffeur- and baby-sitting service for Nancy Pelosi’s kids and grandkids — presumably because commercial travel is beneath the families of the autocrats.
Ross had receipt after sickening (if you’re a taxpayer) receipt where Madame Speaker has forced the military and U.S. taxpayers to pick up the tab for shuttling her kids and grandkids from coast to coast on the little people’s dime.
In some of these cases, there was no one else on the plane but members of Pelosi’s family.
Ross: “Here’s but one example of the Speaker’s kids traveling by military aircraft by themselves!”
Ross’ article should be read to be believed: an unending series of Pelosi’s abuse of the military and tax dollars. Check out the link [Un-frickin-believable: U.S. Military Serving as Chauffeurs, Babysitters for the Pelosi Kids: Receipts That Will Blow Your Mind] for more–much more.
Remember when she vowed to “drain the swamp?”
If that happens today, taxpayers are likely to find more babysitting bills for the chumps paying taxes to pick up–courtesy of Her Royal Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.
There is no doubt that Pelosi is a thief and a liar, that said, one must ask the question…”Why is the rest of the Congress (at lease the Republicans and Non Dems) exposing her excesses and thefts?” Why haven’t they at least leaked this to Glen Beck, I don’t think O’Rielly would probably never use the information.

You will have to excuse me for being so illiterate, but when did the family and 2nd generation family be allowed to travel on “her” travel agenda. I hope the american public stands up and on November will vote her a** out of congress, and perhaps submit an invoice for all the out of pocket expenses that we are having to pay….. What a disappointment she is to the human race…..

[...] That’s right. Judicial Watch and Doug Ross discovered that military planes were being used to ferry around the woman’s family, even when no elected members of our so-called representative government were aboard. That’s like $18,000 dollars an hour taxpayer expense versus the spoiled brats climbing aboard a commercial flight! Read more here. [...]

This is an outrage!! It has already hit the 9.12 site & many people are already mad. Of course, The Queen, is denying it all. The tax payers should be outraged to put it lightly & those in Pelosi’s district should vote her out in Nov. http://www.johndennis2010.com/ That’s who they should vote in in place of Ms Pelosi.
