No!!! No!!! It doesn't work that way anymore, Repubs!!!
Edited on Thu Jun-02-11 04:49 PM by KansDem
...governor and State Republican Committee are reimbursing the state for all personal use of a state police helicopter

NJ Gov. Christie, GOP reimburse state for 2 helicopter trips

We have to "privatize" this service, so I have founded "CopterCorp: the Executive's Way to Reach Your Goal."

You will pay me for this service and I will issue you vouchers...costly vouchers that will never cover the complete cost of one trip, so you'll have to make up the difference out of your own pocket.

And the price of this service will be much higher than what the government charges (probably because I'm taking 33 cents of every dollar you pay me for "administration costs" and future bonuses. That's what happens when a "middleman" gets involved).

So forget the "government handout"...and open an account with "CopterCorp" today! :D

(Oh, and even after taking your money, I reserve the right to deny you service based on "preexisting conditions"...like air sickness).


I don't mind a parasite. I object to a cut-rate one.

2. Hey, you gonna need a pilot?
My brother and I spent the weekend cutting up trees that had been toppled by high winds last week. His chainsaw was bigger so he said he would cut it, and I could "pilot".

4. Actually, I would require a little less......
...than minimum wage. I'm trying to not to send up any red flags so the IRS won't audit me. I sudden jump in wages would surely alert them. How's $5/hr? I didn't spend three years in the third grade fer nuttin!

5. You're hired!
You'll be issued a helicopter...just as soon as the mechanic goes over it to be sure it's safe. Should be no later than tomorrow as he has Little League practice tonight.

I really think this business is going to "take off!"
