A friend of mine set off the metal detector at TSA security in national airport Friday afternoon. While waiting to be personally screened, a man pushed in front of her without apology. It was Jesse Jackson. When she protested, he insisted he needed to cut in front of her because he was late for his plane. Her plane was already boarding as well, she replied, but Jackson dismissed her concern and pushed ahead. Were that not enough, the TSA employee conducting the screening, acquiesced and checked Jackson ahead of my friend.
