So, GM execs were blasted for flying in private jets when asking for bailout money from Congress....
So, now that we are in serious economic trouble, why is President Obama is flying in Air Force One from DC to Denver to just sign the stimulus package?? Now on Wed, he'll fly from Denver to Arizona...why not save taxpayers some money by signing the bill in DC and video conferencing in Arizona?
What makes it even worse, why didn't VP Biden just "plane pool" with Obama...no, he takes separate plane, Air Force 2, to Denver as well.
I know flying to Denver to sign the bill was a political statement...normally I wouldn't care how the President uses Air Force One, but why blast GM execs for wasting money when you won't set the same example...
