Hmmm ... maybe segregated facilities for Hollywood's rich and famous is for the best. After all, we can't have human walking cesspools like Charlie Sheen and Courtney Love mingling with the public and creating a contagious outbreak!

Amen! If I had to travel to LA, I sure wouldn’t want to run into anything from Hollywood.

Hey, why just glitterati? Might be useful for some others, too...

Just think, the “Patriot Act”, we could all travel just like the rich and famous do now.

The Lear jet leftists expect to form the core of the global Green Inner Party. There they will continue to enjoy the finest foods and most advanced gadgets the world has to offer — while deciding your fate for you.

If you work very hard and show them your unwavering loyalty you may be permitted to join the global Green Outer Party. You will be allowed occasional servings of meat - and air conditioning on a rationed basis.

The rest of us will eat beans and swelter — for the good of the planet.

There's a rise near there with a dog park and some benches. People go there to watch planes takeoff and land.

It will soon be overrun with paparazzi trying to catch glimpses of the rich and clueless.

Is it going to have privacy booths for sex and drugs?

I can see all kinds of fun arising from this.

Is the LAPD going to be in charge of security?

With things like Charlie Sheen going through it, they will probably have to hose the place out each night.

But but but, how am I ever going to learn the correct talking points on all matters of global importance from political to science if I am denied access to people who read things other people write in front of cameras, or better yet have teams of engineers that can take the raw sound of their voice and tweak the frequencies and amplitudes of them so they don’t sound like 1000 cats simultaneously vomiting?

I’ve got a better idea. Just give those a-holes their own stupid airport. I sure as hell don’t want to see them.

I know one of the airport commissioners. Could be worth asking for a peek at the facilities once they’re properly dressed out.

When the space shuttle was at LAX, my sister got the opportunity to go inside and check it out. I was quite jealous.

A repulsive waste of money BUT this is the way to compete with private jets. We all know these save_the_freakin_planet Hollywood celebrities love their private jets with half the reason being to avoid contact with the peasantry. So this new “Private LAX Lounge for the Rich and Famous” will also keep the rabble at bay. Thus serving to entice the wealthy off their private jets which often they don’t own but charter one trip at a time. Think of it another gated community.

The “Can’t Afford A Private Jet Lounge”. So what?

LAX has it’s own Police force, doubt they’d let LAPD in, on their turf . . .

As long as ‘they’ are paying for it I have no problem. In fact. I do feel sympathy for some of the “rich and famous.” After a 12 or 20 hour flight we are all just humans who want to go about our business. I travel a lot. And I frequently fly 1st class. I have sat by “rich and famous” and deplaned the same time they have. I have seen them mobbed by fans and workers at the airport. I do feel sorry for them. By the end of a trans Pacific flight all you want to do is go rest. I haven’t seen paparazzi attack but I can only imagine it is awful.

This exclusive lounge will also keep the paparazzi and celebrity stalkers away. Another big plus for Hollywood types. It will also function as a private club where actor X can run into producer Y and Hollywood lawyer Z and discuss a deal and money making opportunities
