Ok so this isn't really about Detroit, I thought it was a familiar use of words... (Long story short) Vitter had arrived at the gate for a flight from Dulles Airport, only to find that the door had been closed twenty minutes prior to departure. After setting off the security alarm, the Louisiana senator proceeded to dress down an airline employee who told him entering the restricted area was forbidden. He invoked his standing as a senator, delivering a "do-you-know-who-I-am" tirade, the paper said. The airline worker then announced he was going to summon security. "Vitter, according to the witness, remained defiant, yelling that the employee could call the police if he wanted to and their supervisors, who, presumably, might be more impressed with his Senator’s pin," the paper's Heard on the Hill column noted. "But after talking a huffy big game, Vitter apparently thought better of pushing the confrontation any further. When the gate attendant left to find a security guard, Vitter turned tail and simply fled the scene." |

Diaper boy on the run again...what an idiot. Just to refresh everyone's memory - and tie this to Detroit - David Vitter is also famous for: 1) indulging his diaper fetish with a prostitute despite being a married, Bible-beating Republican. Then forcing his humiliated wife to hold his hand while and declare her undying love to him on television. 2) loudly opposing Detroit's requests for a bridge loan with all sorts of incoherent union-busting rhetoric. 3) publicly standing behind Rush Limbaugh's wish that the US President fail in his job. |

"who is CB?" She's a former city employee and model citizen who is currently enjoying an extended stay at one of the city's lodging establishments. |

2) loudly opposing Detroit's requests for a bridge loan with all sorts of incoherent union-busting rhetoric (Cloud_wall) Thanks Cloud, I knew I left something out about David (piece-of-trash) Vitter. |
