Republicans Make Hay over Pelosi's Plane Request

The Speaker of the House is the most protected and most coddled member of Congress. She's the only one gets Secret Service protection and who never has to fly commercial. Nancy Pelosi, unhappy with the plane her predecessor, Dennis Hastert, used, has asked the Air Force for a new, bigger one. Margaret Talev, who reports for McClatchy Newspapers, says Republican critics are calling the plane "Pelosi One."
