Senator Saxby Chambliss is leaving the beltway of Washington, DC this weekend. Is he heading home to Georgia, the state he represents? That depends on whether you count Georgia airspace.

The price for attending Isakson’s event: $2,000.00. If Senator Isakson were to go back to his home state, where there’s 10.2 percent unemployment, he’d see people living quite differently than the crowd at his Washington D.C. parties.
