Air Claire runs into more turbulence

And it has a name: hypocrisy.

Poor Claire McCaskill. The fiasco over her private airplane just won’t go away.

Last week, the news was that Missouri’s Democratic senator had failed to pay personal property taxes on her $2 million dollar, private aircraft. …

Now it gets worse. Yesterday, Politico.com, which first broke the story about McCaskill billing the U.S. Treasury for use of the plane, uncovered some 2004 campaign ads when McCaskill was running for governor in Missouri.

Guess what the ads say?

You don’t have to guess, do you? The ads slam her opponent for…wait for it…billing taxpayers for the use of a private plane. There’s video goodness at the link above.
