But this group is not.

Thankfully.

Here's a toast to keeping it that way..........

It's all about politics. The military types in the Pentagon E Ring
should know by now that this was a battle they shouldn't have even
thought about fighting. I was an e-ring type for several years and know
first hand about the parasites which infest our Congress. Pelosi is
just another one in a long, long list (democrats and republicans) who do
this kind of thing.

Of course it's all about politics. Unfortunately we are stuck with
them and as long as they are responsible for policing themselves it is
not likely to get any better. You are correct in stating that the
list is long and populated from both sides of the fence. Greed at
that level is difficult to surpass and if they can tie it into a
political cat fight all the better it seems.

Pelosi -- based upon my hearing of her interview on C-span, used this as
an excellent opportunity to blast the military. She commented three
times during that interview about how "the military" had done this to
her and heads would roll. Words to that effect, of course. She was
very blunt in her condemnation of the military in that interview.

While I am certainly no fan of Pelosi she is 'entitled' by the
position she holds to transport. Did she go overboard? Sure she did.
Will she try to make political hay of it? Sure she will. Next time
the tables flop and it is a Republican will he or she ask for even
more than Pelosi asked for? No doubt about it. I never cared much
for o' moonie in California a few years back but had to admire him for
shunning the limo to drive himself to work at the Gov mansion in a
Volkswagen.

Understand that there are republicans and others who do the same thing
-- order up the most expensive transport they can get away with.

Amen.

I remember one Congressional visit to Thailand when I was stationed
there. After the congress slime had gotten finished with their one day
"review" they moved on to Chaing Mai and went on an orgy of teak wood
products purchases. So much in fact that we had to lay on a C130 flight
to carry all their **** back to Andrews AFB. Add this to the
congressmen and their smarmy "staff" going to every steam and cream and
house of prostitution they could find, serviced by boys and girls alike...

I have witnessed similar "shopping trips" in Viet Nam, Thailand,
Korea, Philippines, and everywhere else by visiting brass and
politicians. Damn shame my tax money gets spent that way. {I can
forgive them the whorehouse visits since those were usually cheap and
didn't require additional transport to take anything home. LOL.}

I say: A pox on all of them and their Houses.

And you can quote me on that.

As a twenty year AF vet I hate to see the waste and especially when I
also see the military pay votes out of congress.

And he didn't live in the Governor's Mansion. The original one had
been turned into a State park after Nancy Reagan refused to live in
it. A new mansion was built several miles from the Capital, but has
never been used by any governor and was subsequently sold.

Jerry Brown lived in an apartment across the street (14th and L) from
the Capital.

Thanks for the compliment but I am done with this topic. We need to
keep this group focused on aviation. I'm sorry I momentarily turned away.

Here's a picture of one of my favorite Sweet Hearts -- not only is she
Hot she can fly and aeroplane! Ah Sweet Billie, you are now in the
Earth and I am generation too late.

Cheers,

Dave
