Bill Clinton may have felt your pain, but it appears that Nancy Pelosi’s feeling no pain. She couldn’t be if she’s consuming al the alcohol she demands for her weekly cross-country flights on the taxpayer’s dime.

World Net Daily offers up the remarkable details:

It reads like a dream order for some wild frat party: Maker’s Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Bailey’s Irish Crème, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewars scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniels whiskey … and Corona beer.

But that single receipt makes up just part of the more than $101,000 taxpayers paid for “in-flight services” – including food and liquor, for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trips on Air Force jets over the last two years. That’s almost $1,000 per week.
Documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by Judicial Watch, which investigates and prosecutes government corruption, show that the Pelosi incurred expenses of some $2.1 million for her use of Air Force jets for travel over that time.

This is nice information.

But for my purposes I don't care who is footing the bill. If they choose to allow their money to be used for these purposes I wouldn't mind reaping the benefits.
