Don't worry America... conservatives are douchebags EVERYWHERE, not just in the U.S

She swore, she kicked, she made a fuss.

It was one of the worst meltdowns a staff member of Charlottetown Airport says he's ever seen – and it came from a federally elected representative.

Junior cabinet minister Helena Guergis has apologized for her behaviour at the island's airport last week, saying she regrets that she “spoke emotionally” to Air Canada staff.

The minister of state for the status of women said she was rushing to catch a flight a week ago Friday and sputtered some regrettable things to airport staff. The Conservative MP for Simcoe-Grey admitted her behaviour was “not appropriate.”

According to the staffer, Ms. Guergis and her assistant showed up 15 minutes before her scheduled Air Canada Jazz flight to Montreal around 5:30 p.m., already nagging employees to hurry up.

“She was yelling at the Jazz agent to hurry up and that wasting her time and that she had to get going because she wanted to get home because it's her ‘effing birthday,'” the employee said.

They were told they could not tote their oversized bags as carry-on and would have to check them. The pair approached the gate and began banging trying to break through.

“A staffer went to the gates to tell her to just hang on because she was literally banging and kicking on the glass at the security doors,” he said.

When they reached security, she ran through the metal detectors, he said, setting off the bells.

“She took her boots off and she threw them” at a security official, he said, berating them the whole time.

Read the full article, it gets even better. By the way, she's married to another conservative politician who was really really anti drug, and was then caught driving drunk/high on coke.
