Speaking of pissing away money…

So I’m watching ABC news, presumably a charter member of the liberal elite. Laura “Pickles” Bush is apparently on her way back home. She spent six (count ‘em six) hours on the ground in Afghanistan doing First Lady stuff. Way back in 1986 -87, when I used to fly in the cockpit a lot, a two-engine 737 cost $2500 per hour to operate. You go ahead and take a guess what this politically motivated farce is costing the taxpayer.

Let’s also, while we’re contemplating political farces, wonder how much it cost to fly Dear Leader from Texas to Washington to sign the “Save Terri” bill (or whatever those assholes called it). A fax machine would have done the job just as well. Of course it wouldn’t have appealed to the Republican base - the brain dead.

I suppose Bill and Hillary did the same thing. Oh well, politics: "poli" in Latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "bloodsucking creatures."
