'It Takes A Village To Tip A Waitress,' Says Right-Wing Web Site
Who says members of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy don't have a heart?
As news percolated through the Internet Friday that Hillary Clinton had accepted a hearty free breakfast at an upstate New York diner and then stiffed the waitress out of her tip, charter VRWC members at the Web site Free Republic were taking pledges to make up for the First Freeloader's stinginess.
As of Saturday morning, the "It Takes A Village To Tip A Waitress Fund" had collected over $250.00 in pledges.
Within 24 hours of its first report in the Washington Times, the story of the Hillary's snub of "Trish" the waitress (her boss at the "Village House" diner in Albion, N.Y., won't release her full name) had become a defining moment in Clinton's bid to become that state's next U.S. senator.
The First Freeloader initially ordered oatmeal to go, so the story goes. But then Her Stinginess ripped up her diet and ordered up scrambled eggs topped with cheese, hash browns and rye toast. Next, when she thought nobody was looking, she wolfed down a second helping of eggs.
The cholesterol-laden Senate candidate thanked her hosts and made a beeline for the door - without leaving so much as a penny tip for poor Trish, who not only had to schlep all that food to Her Hungriness, she's also a struggling single mom who works for below minimum wage and has to pay her own health insurance.
