But "Schumer" and "shut up" are not words normally found in the same sentence. He's at it again.
It's become as predictable as 1,2,3:
- Spirit Airlines announces idiotic plan to charge travelers for carry-on bags.
- Newsie covers the story.
- Ayatollah Schumer rushes to camera, declares jihad.
New York Sen. Charles Schumer calls the fee a “slap in the face,” and said he'll get the government to ban airlines from charging fees for carry-on luggage.I know it's asked so often that the question has become a cliché. But for God's! Sake!
Where the rollicking hell does this asshat get the authority to even express an opinion, much less issue a ban, on what a private business charges for anything? How can any sane man even have the effrontery to say such a thing? And why in the name of cute fuzzy puppies does anybody pretend to take him seriously?
H/T to Tam, who owes me my appetite back for showing me this before breakfast.

I think it was from L. Neil Smith that I first heard it, and at any rate it's a paraphrase, but:
Only government would steal your money to buy a two-pound sledge, break both your legs with it, and then fine you for not being able to run fast enough.
Ol' Chucky is just a product of his profession, plain and simple.
Note Well:
The airline's plan was to drop ticket prices by $40, and charge an extra $45 for carry-ons that wouldn't fit under your seat.
So the overnighter could actually have saved money by stuffing his duffle into a gym bag that would stow beneath his chair...
Instead folks want Nanny Congress to kiss their boo-boo.
WV: "guess". I crap you negative, that's what it was...
