Oklahoma Governor misusing the State Airplane?

Last month Governor Brad Henry office announced that revenue for the State of Oklahoma is down almost 20 percent. It is a staggering number; we are more than $1 billion short of balancing the budget.

And that is why this latest case of state-dollar spending is particularly concerning.

But, Governor Brad Henry can uses a State Aircraft for personal vacations; at least once to attend a wedding in Pensacola, Florida.

The governor presided at the wedding. The groom was an Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper and the bride was the First Lady's assistant.

The cost to Oklahoma taxpayers totaled about $5,700; not including the salaries of the pilot and co-pilot.
