THE HILL: Boehner Will Keep Flying Commercial. “Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) will continue to fly commercially despite the security concerns that came about after Saturday’s shooting in Tucson, Ariz. Boehner’s spokesman Michael Steel told The Hill that the Speaker had no intention to reconsider a decision he previously made to forgo the use of a private jet for transportation to and from his Ohio district.” That’s good, since there’s nothing about what happened in Tucson to suggest any reason not to.

It’s also good, because it sets a tone for not using security as an excuse for more perks, or for hiding from constituents.
