The Hatchlings: Political Privilege
Of course, this Political Privilege Comedy of Errors wouldn't be complete without Minnesota Attorney General Mike Hatch donning his crusader cape and flying to Chicago to help his sweet, innocent Polly Purebread-like daughters.
But according to Nick Coleman, Pinhead Emeritus "writer" for the Minneapolis Star Tribune (the bolding is mine):
Lesson No. 1: A wise father teaches a daughter to avoid any bar where it is "Panty Night."
The Hatch-ettes are young women who admit to swearing like stevedores. After they were tossed out of an establishment delightfully called the Crobar, they got into a tussle with cops and bouncers (one was known as "Tattooed Tony") and blistered the paint off nearby light poles with their cursing.
I admire this in a young woman. It speaks well of her self-confidence and upbringing. My daughter, who is the same age as Elizabeth Hatch, had her school bus privileges suspended because of foul language. She was only in kindergarten, and she merely called her driver "Mr. Baloney Face." But it was a promising start. I keep her framed suspension notice on my wall.
You know, Hatchlings, you're not Paris and Nikki Hilton - not by a long, long shot. It's hard for you to identify with regular real life and how society, in general, is supposed to behave. It is not normal to kick out the windshield of any car, (unless you're riding with Ted Kennedy), let alone a police car. It seems you Can't Understand Normal Things, like basic requests from bar bouncers or police officers to behave yourselves. I guess you feel entitled to that type of behavior. Any apologies from the Hatchlings? Not that I could find. Continued patterns of this behavior, in the years to come can only include some future, and well deserved beeatch slapping.
