You might want to watch what you say to state Senator Ada L. Smith of Queens. The police are investigating an allegation that Smith threw hot coffee in the face of a member of her staff and then pulled the woman's "hairpiece" off her head. (Is Ada also a pro wrestler?)
The alleged attack happened Tuesday morning after the senator returned from a Weight Watchers meeting and announced that she had lost about 4 pounds. The staffer responded she thought Smith would have lost more given Smith's active lifestyle. BAM! Across the room came the scalding hot coffee followed by a hair pull for good measure (I wonder how many calories she burned off doing this). The alleged victim went to St. Peter's Hospital on Tuesday, a source said, complaining of damage to her eyes and abrasions on her neck.
Smith quickly dismissed the claim as "politically motivated" (partisan fat cracks?), but a quick search of her name shows that the accusation is not Smith's first brush with the law -- or her own staff.:
It's too bad Stephen Colbert doesn't do a "Better Know Your State Senator" segment on his show. I'd love to see them go head to head.
