i hate that shit
like romney hating obamacare when it was essentially the same thing romney enacted in massachusetts
but that was more romney than the conservatives, and the libs are far more resistant/unwavering than the right
as for getting better care for the vets, wayyyyyy overdue
people tend to forget that everything they have is thanks to the brave men and women who've fought for them

 

but wait, he's a socialist
does that we'd all suffer the same prison term even if we committed less of a crime or none at all?

This isn't bank fraud, it's democratic bank fraud.

 

hmmm, the latter sounds redundant

 

No foul play whatsoever.

 

Delta refunds $30 to Ann Coulter after her Twitter rant
by Daniel Trotta | Reuters — 7 hours ago

(Reuters) - Delta Air Lines Inc. said it would refund $30 to conservative commentator Ann Coulter after she unleashed a Twitter tirade over being reassigned to a seat with less leg room, and the airline called her string of insults "unacceptable and unnecessary".

"We're sorry you did not receive the preferred seat you paid for and will refund your $30," the airline told Coulter on Twitter.

"Additionally, your insults about our other customers and employees are unacceptable and unnecessary," Delta said in a second tweet.

Delta appeared to have deleted its tweets after they were posted on Sunday afternoon, but not before they were shared thousands of times.

Coulter, one of America's best-known and most provocative pundits on the political right, ripped the airline with a series of tweets on Saturday and Sunday, saying she was "kicked out of a carefully pre-booked seat to a less desirable seat, without explanation, apology, etc".

She also directed her ire at the "dachshund-legged woman" who took her seat with extra leg room, posting a picture of her.

Coulter, who has 1.6 million followers, likened Delta employees to Nurse Ratched, the heartless villain in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", called Delta the "worst airline in America", and suggested the ideal job for a Delta employee would be prison guard, animal handler or an East German policeman.

The incident generated some social media sympathy from people dissatisfied with airline service, a topic that went viral in April when a man was dragged off a United flight to make room for a flight crew in transit.

But some of the sentiment turned on Coulter when Delta revealed that the upgrade she was denied was worth only $30.

"Only people like Ann Coulter could make one take the side of the airline. I will book my next flight with @Delta," said Twitter user Mark Curtis.

Delta representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Coulter responded on Twitter by saying she was still waiting for an explanation why her seat assignment was changed.

 

There are reasons.
People are not entitled to reasons sometimes.
The other lady maybe had some rare health issue that makes her legs tiny due to circulation.
Maybe the lady is embarrassed by her situation and asked for the airline to keep it confidential. Or maybe its standard to keep reasons confidential for the customers sake. Maybe the leg cramps and circulation issue I just made up originated as symptoms from a venereal disease and such it is embarrassing to mention.
We never know.
That is why we should not be such dicks like Ann.

 

No... because she is a loudmouth.
Being a loudmouth is all about causing controversy.
She is a dramaturge. Her job is to work up drama.
Trained her bud Bill Maher, who is a leftist.

 

They are, really close. And torch each other. Probably screw each other too.
Bill essentially trained her how to be this way and put her on TV back on his old show.

 

Dude, who is talking about her opinions?
You asked and we answered and it had nothing to do with her opinions or her politics.
You are ignoring the answer and are going on about her opinions.
It is not her opinions that we are commenting on.
Not even her personality or character we are talking about.
We are talking about her shtick.
She is an actor playing a role in the media. Her role is to cause stress/drama.
Bill Maher is similar, but a leftist on most everything but Islam.
He and Coulter meet on their hate for the middle east.
They are agents of hate. Use hate to stir up the emotions of those they believe to be sheep/weak easy to manipulate.
It makes them money for nothing and chicks for free.
These guys are movie stars in the political heaven. Ann Coulter is a regular Mr. Ed.

Ok that last one was a cheap shot. Coulter gets a lot of shit for looking like a horse but in truth she is not nearly as bad as people make it out ot be.
She is older though and things are starting to get wrecked.
But in the past she was a skinny tall blonde white chick... and that has always gone a long way.
