Southwest boots woman for shirt
Lorrie Heasley to sue for being asked to leave a flight because of her politically charged T-shirt.
NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Southwest Airlines kicked a woman off one of its flights over a political message on her T-shirt, the airline confirmed Thursday, and published reports say the passenger will sue.
Lorrie Heasley, of Woodland, Wash., was asked to leave her flight from Los Angeles to Portland, Ore., Tuesday for wearing a T-shirt with pictures of President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and a phrase similar to the popular film title "Meet the Fockers." A spokesman for Southwest Airlines (up $0.20 to $15.21, Research) told CNN that the airline used the "common sense" approach when they decided to escort Heasley from the plane in Reno, Nevada, during a stopover between Los Angeles and Portland, Ore.

Oh man! Another Freeperism to explain to the newbies. LOL
I did hear this woman on Hannity this evening. What a selfish, spoiled, ignorant moonbat. She said something to the effect, that if people were offended, they just shouldn't read her shirt.
Reading comprehension must not be her strong suit. Just how long does it take to read a four letter word? Even she should know that word on sight as it seems to comprise about half of the postings at DU.
