Ugh

SCOTUS let the country down on the El-Masri case, the Dems are caving on wiretapping, and a friend reports the following from O'Hare just this morning:
A passenger is refusing to fly on this plane because the United gate agent is wearing a hijab. She and her husband then started to try to convince the other passengers that none of us should fly on this plane. Police are now here, and the couple is explaining that United is "exercising extreme poor judgement" in "letting potential terrorists" work flights.

What is wrong with people? And can I go back to bed now?

  • Assume you are talking about SCOTUS...

    I know. This is SO depressing.

  • Meant the O'Hare incident, actually. Am too numb to react to SCOTUS -- especially after the Thomas book release, am having problems taking the Nine seriously (or, more accurately, The Five....)

  • Of course you did. Yes, right, also horrible horrible horrible. It's as though the civil rights movement never took place. OK, that's an exaggeration, but still, imagine, /I can't believe you let African Americans work near airplanes./ Or women, for that matter.
