Two more for the crying liberals bin --

Louise Sawyer and Grace Fuller have sued Southwest Airlines because a flight attendant uteered the following:

"Eenie, meenie, minie, moe; pick a seat, we gotta go."

The two claim the "racist history" of the song caused them severe emotional distress, and are asking for "injunctive relief" and "unspecified" loot from the airline.

Wow.

The actual report delinieates that the women suing are a bit older (46 & 48) are likely not well to do (at least one has no health insurance) and that the insensitive flight attendant is 22. She indicates that she never heard any racist version of the rhyme before in her life.

I'd offer aditional commentary on this but I think its safe to say you can probably guess my sentiments.
