So when Boehner gets to fly the military jet back to Ohio
because he will be #3 in line, will the media make a circus out of it like they did for Pelosi?
Or will this not even be brought up, because EVERYBODY knows that the speaker gets this special treatment?

1. If I were Boehner and the GOP congressmen
I would eliminate Air Force Three as a grand gesture of cutting expenses and showing that Old Orange Face is just a regular guy unlike the "imperial" Speaker Pelosi.

4. Boehner should fly coach like the rest of us, as an example to his commitment
for saving tax payers money.

2. Military plane
Of course not, they are to busy advising Obama on why he should compromise with the Republicans. Oh that damn liberal media is at it again. But, maybe the Fox & Friends three stooges will be all over it.

3. Silly goose! Everyone knows different rules apply to Democrats!
Mountains are only made out of molehills when Democrats are involved.

:nuke: the corporate media!

5. That's what makes the Republicans so great!
They have two sets of rules, one for them and one for everybody else. That is why they are so appealing to so many people. The true "American Dream" is "I do whatever I want and you do what I tell you to do".
