The C-12 is the obvious choice. I'm trying to calculate what the flight would cost.. Also looking at travel disclosures. It's slim pickings - turns out many of the records must be requested IN PERSON in D.C. Zach - good call. The C-12 is the obvious choice. I’m trying to calculate what the flight would cost..

Also looking at travel disclosures. It’s slim pickings - turns out many of the records must be requested IN PERSON in D.C.

It's wrong if only one party does it, but it's okay if both parties do it? Or is your moral rage diminished as long as you can point fingers at some Democrats?" I think I was about as plain as possible. If Norm flew his family to a foreign country on our dime, he was wrong. Period. End of story. Capiche? My added commentary pointed out that if one cared to dig any deeper (not that I expect a Democrat to uncover anything that might provide a discordant resonance in the 'bat cave), they would find that abuse of power knows no party affiliation. Which is why the true conservative wants to shrink governmental interference to within the bounds set by the constitution, without regard to party lines. Randy says: “I don’t get it.

I think they must have been referring to the C-12 (who knows where the extra zero got put in) a plane used for (and this is according to wikipedia, so not the best source) embassy support. I will try to dig into this more... Excellent point Noah.

As in, I can't find a current tranport vehicle in use with that designation. The only think that comes close is the Fairchild XC-120 Packplane and only one was ever built. The anonymous source which is the source of the story should be contacted again to clear up the story. If anyone has any info on what plane be could have meant (or if there is a current C120) would be helpful I’m not a military aviation expert but while I was trying to research what the fuel and operating costs of the C120 were…I couldn’t.

It's wrong if only one party does it, but it's okay if both parties do it? Or is your moral rage diminished as long as you can point fingers at some Democrats? Ethics should not be a partisan issue, but condemnation seems to be. I can visualize the "Democrats are silent when it's one of their own post coming. I won't argue either way on that, but I will just say that they shouldn't be, and, if they are, that does not excuse Republicans for their silence. Swiftee — I don’t get it.

Perhaps a more effective form of protest would be not reading the blog and deny it page views, thereby decreasing Publius' blogads revenue. But I'm guessing you'd rather have something to whine about. It’s not as if blog comments can be traded in for money or tickets to see a movie.

He's been paid $650,000 from the drug companies since 2002 so he should still have money. ....but then again why would he use his money when he can steal from us.
