Bernie blew more than half a million for his junket to Rome. Does this sound like a 1% thing to do?

67. I still get a chuckle about the level of butthurt that trip caused.

The menu is exactly what you'd expect on an international charter and although it's made to look fancy it's not especially. Read a menu at any restaurant fancier than Denny's and you see the same hyped descriptions. Potato salad? Lentil soup? Seafood salad? When did that get to be haute cuisine except in a menu copy-writer's wet dream? Please. Give it a rest. If Hillary's winning why do you people give even the tiniest little shit?

Of course, when Hillary travels she takes the Greyhound, carries her own bag, stays at a Motel 6 and doesn't ask for anything fancier than a diet Coke and a bag of Doritos, right? Or not...

Hillary Rodham Clinton likes to travel in style.

She insists on staying in the “presidential suite” of luxury hotels that she chooses anywhere in the world, including Las Vegas.

She usually requires those who pay her six-figure fees for speeches to also provide a private jet for transportation — only a $39 million, 16-passenger Gulfstream G450 or larger will do.

And she doesn’t travel alone, relying on an entourage of a couple of “travel aides,” and a couple of advance staffers who check out her speech site in the days leading up to her appearance, much like a White House trip, according to her contract and supporting documents concerning her Oct. 13 speech at a University of Nevada, Las Vegas Foundation fundraiser.
