Brazil senate chief to repay 'hair transplant' flight

Brazil senate chief to repay 'hair transplant' flight
2013-12-24 22:26

Brasilia - The president of Brazil's senate, Renan Calheiros, will repay the cost of using an air force jet for a trip during which he reportedly had a hair transplant, his spokesperson said on Tuesday.

"The president is to repay the costs of this flight. He is waiting for the air force to calculate the bill before doing so," he said. "I don't know if the president has had a hair transplant."

The Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper had reported that Calheiros had flown 1 980km from Brasilia to Recife to have 10 000 hairs implanted while purportedly on a business trip.

And the paper recalled that he had also used an air force jet to travel to a wedding in the northeastern city of Salvador, resulting in his having to pick up a tab of 32 000 reais ($14 000).

DU progressives know ocpagu would know ALL about this story, and far, far more.

What a shame it is a several right-wing troll cretins mass attacked her, harassed, insulted, lied, kicked, scratched, and bit as they did their best to destroy her, and earned a rebuke from her, very appropriate, clearly, one which would have been natural for ANYONE given that level of filthy, underhanded perversion in action thrown at her, and they streaked off to get her locked out as soon as it happened.

She left, and she left a LOT of angry, and so sad friends, feeling so pissed about this, wanting her back, while all we've got is the dregs, the scum of the earth who attacked her, instead, minus one.

We miss our Brazilian friend, ocpagu, and we are damned angry the pieces of S. who gang-attacked her are here, instead.
There aren't enough of them in the universe to equal one dead skin cell from her body.

Quality matters. DU lost it when ocpagu left.

and there seems to be no recourse to summary judgments on DU.

I'm not sure why I'm still allowed to be here...but I hide out in my favorite spots, where they know me and I know them.
