$2,100,744.59 over a two year period for Speaker Nancy Pelosi's travel expenses.
She is running a party plane, $101,429.14 alone for food and drink. Check this one out...
One CODEL traveling from Washington, DC, through Tel Aviv, Israel to Baghdad, Iraq May 15-20, 2008, “to discuss matters of mutual concern with government leaders” included members of Congress and their spouses and cost $17,931 per hour in aircraft alone. Purchases for the CODEL included: Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Bailey’s Irish Crème, Maker’s Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewars scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniels whiskey, Corona beer and several bottles of wine.
Corona? How much are we spending on limes for the speaker? At least she could use a domestic beer! I bet those weren't even California wines.
