>I will say that putting the plane up for auction on eBay is going a little far with the rhetoric. But to claim that it wasn't wasteful, or that it doesn't amount to much in the big scheme of things, is to support more wasteful government spending. And that should outrage anyone, whether you're for limited government or for a big Nanny state.

No, it doesn't outrage me at all. The people that are raging the most against "earmarks" are mostly the same that think we need to spend trillions a year on the military.
