Why does he have to fly in? Why can he not drive? Its not like its a 6 hr drive or anything. Just another way for him to toss away tax money.

He should take partial blame for it....after all, it was his Arkansas State Highway Dept. that was mowing along the highway....Didn't I hear just a couple of weeks ago on FOX16, that they are recommending that NO ONE MOW THEIR YARDS?
