    As the investigation discovered, she never asked for any specific plane, nor did the Sgt.-at-Arms, who told her she needed a nonstop flight.

    Washington -- Democrat Nancy Pelosi received some rare help Thursday from the White House against a barrage of Republican criticism over how the new House speaker intends to get back home.
    For security reasons, Pelosi is entitled to fly to her San Francisco district on military planes.


    The House sergeant-at-arms, who helps oversee security for the House, suggested that flying nonstop would be the safest way home for Pelosi, next after the vice president in the line of presidential succession...

    Republicans, led by aggressive junior lawmakers, seized on the most extreme possibility: Pelosi flying on the military equivalent of a Boeing 757 with the latest in travel comforts...

    Too much ado about nothing, the White House weighed in.

    "I have never asked for any larger plane," Pelosi said. "I have said that I am happy to ride commercial if the plane they have doesn't go coast to coast."

    To presidential spokesman Tony Snow, "This is a silly story and I think it's been unfair to the speaker."

    Would have, if she had done it. But as you see, the story was concocted by some junior GOP legislators.

    That's good. Too bad the republicans in the House don't have our nation's best interests in mind, too. But that may change, when their constiutents find out what they've done this time.

    Key word...want.

    Means she undoubtably asked for or demanded what she wanted.

    Maybe the SoA read her mind but it's much much more likely she verbalized her wants just like she did above.

    I do agree the whole thing is much ado about nothing. Pelosi's much ado about nothing.

    Want Want Want

    Maybe she only decided she wanted it after the The SoA asked for it. :rolleyes:

    I hate being right when it is this obvious . . .

    :thumbs:

    But, I told you.

    :wavey:

    I should just say that I am a liberal and call everyone that disagrees with me a liar . . .

    :laugh:
