Vitter: Waiting for Coffee is for the Little People

Oh look, a pattern!

Diaper Dave Vitter, back in March:

The Louisiana senator arrived at his gate to find it already closed and then "opened the door, setting off a security alarm and prompting an airline worker to warn him that entering the gate was forbidden." Vitter "gave the airline worker an earful, employing the timeworn 'do-you-know-who-I-am' tirade that apparently grew quite heated."

And yesterday:

The cafe was jammed Wednesday afternoon -- with about a dozen tired staffers and visitors waiting patiently on line for caffeine boosts -- when Vitter, the Louisiana Republican, Rhodes Scholar and sex scandal survivor, strolled in, according to an eyewitness.

Walking past the throng, Vitter peered nonchalantly at the display case, like he was perusing the goods -- then jutted his arm up, attracting the attention of an employee, who dutifully served him his Joe.


Presumably the people Vitter cut in front of are now regretting that there's no "enjoys waiting in line while caffeine-deprived" fetish.

Stay tuned for more entries in the growing list of annoying things Vitter doesn't think senators should have to put up with.
