Sooo, it's only when the democrats fly that it attracts national attention, How hypocritical is that? I'm sure Dick cheney needs that fuel guzzling 747 to fly back and forth to his ranch, and Dubya needs his to go on vacation to Crawford every 2-3 weeks. I'll wager the repubes have logged more wasteful miles in jets than the Dems ever thought of. To be honest, I wish they all had to take a train or the bus, would slow things down a bit.
