Interesting footnote to the troubles of Sen. Larry Craig of Idaho (he of Bathroom-Bust fame, as CNN put it).
While Craig was being grilled by the cops after the restroom incident, the senator apparently indicated he was worried about missing his flight (see the whole police report on The Smoking Gun). Anyway, one of the detectives tried to call the airline to hold the plane. The airline did not answer the phone.
Imagine that! Personally, I’m thrilled to know that an airline responds as well to the police (calling on behalf of a U.S. Senator, no less) as they do when I call, which is to say, they don’t respond at all!
Not a good day for the senator, all in all.
