Is she the one where 26 staffers have left in the last 6 months because she is crazy?

Some of my fondest memories are of finding some interesting place on my way to somewhere else. :)

Oh yeah! I have 9+ years worth of “dog and pony show” experience from the Marine Corps!

The things we used to do to make things look and sound like everything was wonderful, all because the Secretary of Defense or the Head of the DOJ or a Joint Chiefs of Staff member was doing a pass-in-review! UGH!!

I would have laughed loudly and Loudly in my best Company Commander voice “DO NOT SMELL MY FEET!”

To be fair U.S. Representatives have a whole lot of power over the airlines and it is in United’s best interest to get her a first class seat. It has been reported that United apologized five times in one phone call to the displaced customer. United will pony up with some more cash and benefits and all will be well.

She-Jack has a reputation for this sort of thing. She is an embarrassment.

This whole affair is excusable. Sheila Jackson Lee lent her broom to Hillary, and poor Sheila had to fly United.

She should file a multi million dollar lawsuit against united. Once the United lawyers look at the discovery they have to turn over she can settle for a yuuge amount

Yes, I guess.

My own take? Never feed the Monkeys (lawyers).
