Lousiana Senator David Vitter throws fit at the airport
Louisiana Sen David Vitter missed his plane at Dulles Airport last Wednesday, and he was not amused.Vitter, who recently gained infamy after being identified on the D.C. Madam's Phone List, found his gate closed, so he went through an armed security door. Why not? He's got that Senator's pin, after all, right? That gives you access to all areas of the airport ... right?
As you might expect, an alarm went off as he then tried to verbally rip an unsuspecting United Airlines gate attendant a new one. Apparently, he even tried to pull rank. Come on. Would that even work in his home state?
When the employee exited to find a security guard, Vitter ran away. What a maverick. According to The Raw Story, "Vitter's spokeperson did not dispute the incident."
Check out these other stories from the airport checkpoint!

Must be a democrat. If he were a Republican the article would have stated the fact.

that would be incorrect, amos, he's a republican,your first hint should've been the fact that he's from Louisiana !!!

A Republican who likes hookers. Obviously he was thinking about the economy when he ran through the security door! Or maybe he was thinking about hookers.

I expet he was thinking about little or nothing.
We have created a class of elected officials from the top down who are completely morally bankrupt. I find little to distinguish Republicans from Demorats. Both are plundering our society for their greedy ambitions.

Wow guess you have not clue what your talking about as most that only follow a party and do not bother to find out what the person is about. To blame all your issues and all the worlds issues on a party is just stupid. There are good and bad in both parties and only people that need to feel like they are part of a group feel the need to limit themselves to one party. Most of the time you do not even get the facts as you did not here. You just yell out democrat or republican like a complete tool.

As a matter of fact, he's a Republican. He was running late because his usual visit to the DC Brothel took longer than he thought.

His is a REPUBLICAN. He is the one who refused to vote for Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State. The only Republican who would not vote for her. What a hypocrite. He hires a prostitute then judges Hillary Clinton? What an idiot. Who could vote for this moron. Oh, I forgot he is from the south, where they don't care what their elected officials do, as long as they are Republican. WOW!

The great Vitter strikes again- the "Family values" senator from Louisiana who will be running in 2010 against a porn star .Hmmm--things are getting interesting for the great Vitter.
I guess the right wingers like Limbaugh,Savage.Coulter, Dobbs, Ingraham are burning the radio waves to "sanitize and rally the ditto heads " from the South to deflect or defend the great Vitter from this airport incident?
Susan Mar 12th 2009 6:29PM
Nah- if he were a Democrat- he would not have been flying commercial!

How typical of a Republican to make assumptions. You must feel like a total moron but Republicans have no shame. Just imagine the spin they are putting now on unwed mother Bristol Palin not getting married. And when is Rush to Judgement Limbaugh going to apologize to Barack Obama for calling Obama's grandmother's illness a publicity stunt and then she died the next day. Republicans have no sense, no shame, no morals.

Don't be so hard on Amos. All he was alluding to was that the mainstream media usually shows its bias by not shining light on Democrats' misdeeds. If it's a Democrat that has run afoul, they will not be too quick to point out his political persuasion. However, what upsets most of us in the middle is the Republicans' hypocrisy. i.e. The Family Values Party
David Mar 12th 2009 7:15PM
He's a Republican, you dim witted twit. What difference does it make? There are idiots of all political parties, race color and creed.
kendoll Mar 12th 2009 8:04PM
What a clown. Vitter is such a hypocrite. Preaching family values and paying for hookers on the side. I hope the good people of Louisiana dump this idiot when he comes up for reelection. He didn't even have the balls to stick around and talk to the police. Typical Republican hypocrite!
Scott Mar 12th 2009 11:37PM
He's a Republican from the waste state of Louisiana.
Regardless of political affiliation, he's a dumbA@@
Victor Mar 13th 2009 12:10AM
Wow, only an ignorant Rush Limbough fan could get that wrong. He is a Republican Senator from the state of Lousiana. Too bad its typical of so called conservatives to miss the facts
Amos Mar 13th 2009 3:00PM
lol,
I have not had the opportunity to chat with marxists for quite a while. I noticed especially that my correction was ignored by all who chose to jump on me for an error. Thank you Cathy for recognizing the reason for my comment.
Civility clearly has no place in a chat room dominated by marxists.
Joe Mar 13th 2009 3:47PM
Right. A Republican thinking about hookers. If he were a Democrat, like Barney Frank, he'd be thinging about men.
moneygrip Mar 13th 2009 4:20PM
Joe, Larry Craig is Republican. I guess he was thinking about women in that men's room...
