Diaper Dave throws tantrum at airport

For most people, even very reasonable airline behavior can get them charged with air piracy and probably placed on the terror watch list for life. Airlines leave passengers stranded on the ground for hours with the restroom locked, yet heaven forbid the states regulate the airlines.

But right-wing scumbags like Sen. Dave Vitter (R-Louisiana) can throw a screeching tantrum because they miss a flight, and it's called "art."

Vitter - known for his appearance on a prostitution client list and his diaper fetish - missed his flight from Washington to New Orleans last week. After missing the flight, he opened an armed security door, set off an alarm, and chewed out an airline employee.

Diaper Dave's harangue followed the now-familiar "do-you-know-who-I-am" mold. Talk about a sense of entitlement!

Maybe his diaper was getting poopy, and he needed to use the restroom on the plane.

Congressional Republicans seem to have problems with airport behavior in the past few years. There's the Larry Craig scandal, of course, and there was John Hostettler's attempt to bring a gun on board. (John Hostettler, a vicious anti-Semite, only got elected in the first place because the so-called election was rigged.)

Anybip, employees called airline security on Vitter, but Vitter yelled back that they could call security and the local police if they wanted. Then he stomped off like a big baby.

If most people acted this way, they would have been arrested on sight. But David Vitter gets (ahem) pampered.

If the missed flight was because of some airline fuck-up, maybe it should teach Vitter a lesson about his own support for deregulating big corporations. But he'll never learn, because most stupid people don't.
