Please who here hasn't used a government
provided brand new Gulfstream jet to fly to Las Vegas and spends weekends @ the
Fountainblue Hotel, run up thousand dollar bar tabs @ the Poodle Room, pass out
in a 500 $ a night hotel room, have to be woken up by the breaking down of your hotel door because you are so drunk,
and let the American People pick up all or part of the tab?

If I took that to that to a producer to make a movie about that nobody would buy it.

The amount of grifting by these people is
insane.
