Why isn't Pelosi reimbursing the govt for her vacations?

  For my friends who don't read up on politics or check out Drudge, let me fill you in on a little nugget that will make your head explode like a watermelon dropping to the pavement; these few words will undoubtedly firmly establish in your minds that your lack of interest in what's going on in Washington is not only warranted, but necessarily to the happiness of your family and your peace of mind. 
  Nancy Pelosi is claiming jobs have always been a priority of "her" Congress.
  Nancy Pelosi is claiming the House has had as its priority since she took hold of it in 2007 deficit reduction and a PAYGO policy...pay as you go.
  Nancy Pelosi is claiming deficit reduction has been their "mantra." 
  Can she explain the fact that the national debt has ballooned from over $8 trillion to $14 trillion in the years she's presided with her iron fist over the House.
  From Fox Nation, proof from this unbelievable press conference.
Furthermore, the year over year federal deficit has roughly quadrupled during Pelosi’s four years as speaker, from $342 billion in fiscal year 2007 to an estimated $1.6 trillion at the end of fiscal year 2010.
  Here's a chart from GP:
  Couple these facts with Pelosi's latest vacation, which of course was in Hawaii, which cost a pretty penny for us to fly her over there. The Hawaii Reporter has done a pretty good job of reporting on the cost of Dear Leader's vacation which ran about one and a half million dollars and now, on Pelosi's vacation.
  The hotel Pelosi stayed is the same one as last year.
  How much? 
  $10,000.
  A night.
  Some of the other information regarding Pelosi's security is classified.
  How much did the taxpayers foot for that bill?
  The article doesn't say.
  Aren't there limits on the amounts those crooks can spend? Understandably, the government needs to pay for her protection, but why are the taxpayers liable for any vacation expenses for this woman? Why isn't she paying for it herself? Why isn't she reimbursing the taxpayers?
  This. Is. Unbelievable.

  1. Pelosi's expenses need to be investigated by the house ethics committee. Who ever has oversight of the President's expenses should be required to make a clear statement to the public re: the limits and conditions of reimbursements and charges! Let's not pay for horrendous vacation bills just because these two shook someone's hand on the way to the golf course.
