So, this week emails are uncovered by Judicial Watch from Pelosi and her staff as Princess Pelotox acts like one of those Sweet Sixteen brats on MTV when making numerous, outrageous requests to use military planes for her personal use. I guess Princess Pelotox forgot about hypocritical past of hers while she was going on and on, like an angry villager with a pitchfork, about corporate executives using private planes. Hey, Princess! You’re not entitled to waste our taxpayer money for private planes either. Do what the rest of us do and fly coach. But I guess that isn’t acceptable for her. From the email when a particular military plane wasn’t available at her beckon call one weekend:

The documents also detail correspondence from intermediaries for Speaker Pelosi issuing demands for certain aircraft and expressing outrage when requested military planes were not available. “It is my understanding there are no G5s available for the House during the Memorial Day recess. This is totally unacceptable…The speaker will want to know where the planes are…” wrote Kay King, Director of the House Office of Interparliamentary Affairs. In a separate email, when told a certain type of aircraft would not be available, King writes, “This is not good news, and we will have some very disappointed folks, as well as a very upset [s]peaker.”

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Poor thing! She didn’t get her private plane. Whaaaaaaaaaaaa! Shhhh, now there you little Spendocrat, it’ll be all right….Shhhhh.

For as much as I hear people complain about CEO-pay, private jets, etc for failing companies, I don’t hear nearly (or even close to it) as much outrage over our legislatures who participate in the same amount IF NOT MORE questionable spending activities. Here’s ABC building back some of their credibility exposing what our legislatures have been up to with OUR money (via Black & Right). Also, keep in mind that Congress’ approval rating is right now around 30%. Last year it reached a low point of around 10% – if that isn’t failing I don’t know what is.

If this was a one-time incident I would probably look past it, but there have been too many instances of this crooked behavior coming out of Congress for years (Smancy Pelotox’s private planes and SUVs to attend her “Save the Earth”-type rallies, Charlie Rangel’s tax evasion and his 5-star, first-class trips to spots like the Dominican Republic and Florida, or the current administration’s love for tax evasion). Yet, citizens don’t say anything about it and what makes it even worse is that this is our money they are playing “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” with. At least the criticized CEOs are earning money through products and services, and the money used is typically from revenue brought in by customers that choose to pay for those products/services. The essential difference is that we are forced to pay in taxes, not by choice, to fund the outrageous spending acts by Congress.

So just think about this the next time you go to gripe about CEO pay, corporate spending, etc. There are always going to be some bad eggs out there whose behavior risks ruining the reputation of the 100,000s of CEOs/businesses who are doing things the right way. Everyone has the opportunity in this country to work your way up the corporate ladder – we shouldn’t throw stones at those successful businessmen who are having one rough year out of 20 successful ones but then not criticize the legislature who invokes this kind of psychological class warfare while engaging in the same “unacceptable” spending behavior as well.  If CEOs are crooked – then, yes they should pay the price. But just because you are a politician does not mean you are shielded by some Beltway forcefield created out of unicorns and excuses for the same behavior.

Yes, she said every month that we don’t have an economic recovery package the U.S. suddenly has 500,000,000 people out of work. Riddle me this, Pelotox, what’s that darn Census Bureau got the U.S. population at again?  Only 300 million? Oh, you made a mistake, Pelotox???  La-di-freakin’-DUH!  But thanks for not only never retracting any of your errors smears, but also serving as a glaring example as to why I don’t trust far-left politicians.

Call me crazy but I don’t know one single person who’s lost a job since this recession started.  It’s not to say I haven’t heard of companies cutting jobs or scaling back on their hiring efforts. I realize that this is happening, but the idea that the U.S. unemployment scare tactics are at the drastic levels politicians like Pelotox would have you believe is a farce.  All Obama and Pelotox are doing is their ABCs – Always-Be-Closing! They’ve got to sell this porkulus to the people because now it’s their reputation on the line. When (not if, when) this porkulus blows up in their faces they can’t effectively just blame President Bush like they did everything during the campaign and they can’t blame Republicans in Congress as they stand together opposed taking many Democrats onto their side.
