Congress wants to add the cost of 8 new executive jets, at the cost of $550 million, to the Pentagon budget to ferry members of Congress to various parts of the world for trips. Why add it to the Pentagon budget? Because it can easily get lost and justified.
This is, of course, after they killed funding to build new F-22 fighter jets.
Perhaps we can have the jets full of Congress and their spouses intercept enemy fighters instead of the F-22's that were planned on. If they are shot down then the cost will certainly be justified . . .
Why do we need these new executive jets? So members of Congress can take global-warming research trips with their spouses to Australia and the South Pole. There, they can see the effects of global-warming up close while snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, riding a cable car through an Australian rain forest, visiting a penguin rookery, and going to the South Pole.
Yep, that ought to provide conclusive evidence that global warming exists.
As a taxpayer, I am always happy to pay for you and your spouse to go on these trips, especially when you need to take a specially equipped rocket and ski Air Force plane to land at the South Pole. What did you see there? I saw lots and lots of snow and ice when I watched the Discovery Channel show on the South Pole. How was your experience any different.
You had better be glad you were not representing my district or my state, I would vote you out in a heartbeat for crap like that.
