Geee Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Daily Caller: Two of the nation’s most expensive combat aircraft, the MV-22 Osprey tilt-rotor, is being used to ferry President Barack Obama’s staff, luggage, pet dog and journalists to the president’s vacation retreat in Martha’s Vineyard, Mass. The aircraft costs more than $10,000 per hour to operate, and is being used even while the president steps up his complaints about curbs on federal spending. “During today’s flight to Martha’s Vineyard the MV-22‘s carried members of the White House Staff, the Media, and the Secret Service, and MV-22’s will fill the same role during future Presidential lifts,” said an Saturday report from the press pool.

Pepper Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I don't have a problem with this @Geee, this is is cost neutral: the money that Obama and Valerie J saved by not sending in resources to rescue the Ambassador and his staff at the Benghazi outpost a year ago was set aside to fund this little novelty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think pooch could have taken an air-conditioned SUV to the Vineyard.......and I'm not all that hot for the 1st Dogs support crew taking the Tilt-Rotor-Whirl-Away ride either.......[the 1st dog's vet......poop retriever/analyzer....and his team of Secret Service agents] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DITTO! and the money the sequester saved by eliminating firewooks for the 4th at places like Camp Lejeune and not doing flyovers in military jets and of course closing the White House to school kid tours 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
