Island airport wants its share of John Kerry catering bill

This is kind of interesting... Apparently John Kerry believes he's above almost everybody who's ever visited Cape Cod...

"Apparently they don't feel like he needs to pay fees to the airport," Peterson said. "I gather the senator objects to that because his aide quoted him as saying that he already pays taxes on the island."

Peterson is out $847 from the two visits Kerry has paid to the island since he became the presumptive Democratic nominee...

The second time, after being reminded to go through the airport for catering, Scott Lalka, who coordinates food for Kerry's flights, said he would only pay $150 of the $400 bill he owed the airport.

According to Peterson, Lalka told him that he represented the Kerry campaign and the candidate did not feel he needed to pay the fees because he already pays taxes on Nantucket.

The airport has never had a problem with other passengers paying handling fees, Peterson said.

I never realized before just how high up Kerry & his own staff feel Kerry is... So much for Kerry understanding average Americans...
