California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom is learning what we've known for eons — namely, not having access to the Jetty sucks. On an airport tarmac somewhere last night, Newsom was none too thrilled that United Airlines kept him waiting. The former San Francisco mayor, who was returning home from filming an episode of This Week With George Stephanopoulos, fumed: "Inexcusable @united waiting for over an hour in seat for 'catering'-after almost 2hrs in seat waiting for mech fix & changing plane...you now have us in seats on tarmac approaching 2 hrs (second time) -I'll forgive the 5.5 hour delay-this time it's 'weights'!"

He's right. United sucks. We hope the Lieutenant Governor's next flight proves relaxing and free of fuss and/or muss.
