In Washington, the partying is full time. No opportunity is missed to live it up at the taxpayer’s expense.

It reads like a dream order for some wild frat party: Maker’s Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Bailey’s Irish Crème, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewars scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniels whiskey … and Corona beer.

But that single receipt makes up just part of the more than $101,000 taxpayers paid for “in-flight services” – including food and liquor, for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trips on Air Force jets over the last two years. That’s almost $1,000 per week.

The money is trivial in the overall scheme of things, I suppose. But the attitude is “let them eat cake.” The same remedy should be applied. These arrogant oligarchs need to be brought back down to earth.

Edit: According to  this blogger, we serfs are paying for Nancy’s relatives as well:

Worse still, she also appears to have requisitioned entire flights for the personal use of her children and grandchildren. That is, unaccompanied by any member of Congress, her kids, in-laws and grandchildren are utilizing entire military passenger jets for their routine travel needs.

It’s good to be royalty, I guess.
