The Anchorage Daily News reports that anti-mask Alaska State Senator and Oral Roberts University graduate Lora Reinbold (R), is complaining about not being able to make it from her home to legislative sessions in Juneau, unless she drives for two days through Canada, because American Airlines banned her for repeatedly harassing boarding staff and flight attendants over mask requirements. That said, Sen. Reinbold claims she was really banned for political reasons and is demanding she be paid her state senator salary, even if she doesn’t show up for work.
Gee, getting paid for not working? I thought that’s what Republicans call socialism? All kidding aside, I realize these are some serious allegations Sen. Reinbold is making! Go ahead and laugh, but the way I see it - getting banned from flying during a COVID pandemic is nothing to scoff at, or was that “cough at?” Or, how about, “sneeze at?” Anyway, one of those. Besides, even if voters decided to send her packing, how’s she gonna travel? Maybe Sarah Palin could give a ride?
Hey, I've got an idea. Perhaps the airline might consider letting her fly “unmasked” - in the cargo bay? Or, how about she take a hot air balloon? She’d definitely have no problem filling it up with “hot air.” Of course, if it were up to me, I’d simply tell her to take an Uber. On the other hand, given the way she’s been treating those poor airline employees, she sure sounds like the kind of “ogre” who could probably just fly right on up to Juneau - on her broom. Problem solved!
