Rule of law!

David "diapers" Vitter may finally receive that special treatment he was demanding at Dulles.

The Transportation Safety Administration is reviewing a report from a Capitol Hill newspaper that Sen. David Vitter, R-WATB, opened a closed gateway door to his scheduled plane last week, setting off a security alarm, agency spokeswoman Lauren Gaches said today.

Gaches would not say what prompted the review, when it began, or whether the United Airlines gate attendant who was the recipient of Vitter's anger after he was denied access to the plane had filed a complaint.

If you or I had attempted to breach security at an airport -- especially one in DC! -- we would've been taken out tasered and in shackles. Screw this jerk.

He SHOULD have had his ass tasered on the spot!
That was a security breach, and he should have been arrested just like anyone else would have been.
Fucker was acting like a psycho!

Yeah, we all get frustrated* with the delays at airports, but these are the same Repukes who were all 110% behind W in post-9/11, and anybody who even suggested that some of this (ie; eternal 'orange alert' status?) was an over-reaction was derisively dismissed as a weak-kneed terrorist sympathizer who didn't understand that we were in a 'war on terror'. Now one of THEM gets in a bad mood and doesn't want to exercise any patience, and we're supposed to consider it a case of 'independent expression against oppressive government rules', I suspect. Typical IOKIYAFR behavior.





(* and I still think a lot of it is unnecessary -- especially the little vials of fluids in bags, etc -- since they finally setup secured cockpint cabin doors)
