Jeez. Could we be anymore distracted from what matters? The White House has weighed in, and drumroll, she gets the plane. Even Tony Snowjob agrees....so, time for everyone to cool their jets and refocus on what matters.
WaPo Flying in a large Air Force plane, Rep. Mark Steven Kirk (R-Ill.) said, "appears to remove any spending controls from our operations and dramatically increases our impact on the environment, especially climate change."
Then the White House weighed in: Too much ado about nothing. "This is a silly story," said presidential spokesman Tony Snow, "and I think it's been unfair to the speaker."
