Schumer "Regrets" Slur of Flight Attendant (Calls Flight Attendant a B****)

New York Senator Chuck Schumer was reportedly waiting to take off on a flight from D.C. to New York Sunday when a flight attendant told him to turn his phone off.

According to the Republican aide who was apparently sitting nearby and told the story to Politico, both Schumer and his seatmate – fellow New York Democratic senator Kirsten Gillibrand – kept talking on their phones regardless.

Then the flight attendant came by again and told Schumer that everyone on the flight was waiting for him to turn off his phone. He asked to finish his conversation but was told he could not; he then hung up and, according to the GOP aide, argued about the rule banning him from speaking on the phone.

When the flight attendant walked away, the aide told Politico, Schumer turned to Gillibrand and referred to the woman as a "bitch."

Schumer spokesman Brian Fallon seems to be confirming the story; he told Politico that Schumer "made an off-the-cuff comment under his breath that he shouldn't have made, and he regrets it."

Perhaps the best detail of the story? The aide claims the phone rang again after Schumer finally hung up.

"It's Harry Reid calling," he said, according to the aide. "I guess health care will have to wait until we land."

“What a pr—k. I’m suprised he didn’t use the infamous line: “Do you KNOW who I am?” A truly detestable man.”

Just another fine product of Haahvaahd U!/s;)

Some people can call a woman b****, a Black n****, or a homosexual f**; yet, women, Blacks, and gays would still vote for them.

That is because:

1) Those women want to keep their sacred "abortion for any reason" laws on the books

2) Those particular black people want to keep getting or are promised "free stuff"

3) Those gays want to keep or come up with laws that force their life-style down our throats.

By all means Chuck, keep on talking and bring the airplane down.

What a POS!

What a total douchebag.

And Gillibrand just sat there while he said that about the flight attendant? Of course the feminists will still vote for her next year.

Good thing he wasn’t an Islamic male passenger refusing to hang up his cell phone.

If he had been an Islamic male passenger, the airline would be forced to fire the flight attendant, apologize profusely and pay him a large cash settlement.

Meanwhile, Barrack Hussein Obama (Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm) would tell us he doesn't know the facts of the case, but the flight attendant behaved stupidly.

I asked in #88, whether Schumer had a wife.
Got curious, googled it.
Sorry I did.
IF YOU DARE, google “Iris Weinshall”.
If you do, you have no one to blame but yourself.
BTT

Poor girl isn’t her fault she’s a bit homely. Course you never know about those homely ones. Sometimes there’s a tiger hiding in there just waiting to “getcha”.

Not really...we do what is asked in these cases, because we understand that we live in a society ruled by laws. We don’t like some of these, be we accept it because we know there are laws other people don’t like that we might, and we live by them.

What galls me about this, is this arrogant turd who thinks he is exempt because of his “exalted stature”. And it is the leftists who are biggest offenders here.

If he was muslim, we’d have an entire thread about whether this was a “test run” for another attack.
