Here's some amusing info about limousine liberal Barbra Streisand, champion of the working man, as heard on the Stern Show: Barbra and her husband James Brolin went out to dinner and when they got the bill for $180, she pulled out a $100 gift certificate and calculated her tip based on the $80 left on the bill. She left only a $12 tip on the $180 tab. Keep looking out for the little guy, Babs.

Guess she figures the waiter gets welfare so why bother with a respectable tip.

And sadly the waiter was probably instructed to kiss her ass the whole time she was there. SHAME on her.

You..have got...to be kidding me.
Hell, if I was as undeservedly rich as that woman, I would be tipping 100%-200%. Give me a break...

If I were a carpetbagger!

At least the waiter got something. I've heard many tales of her leaving no tip at all.
To: Callahan
These libs are so predictable & so sickening.

You are seeing this all wrong..... The restaraunt was graced by her visit. She left a signed 8x10 color glossy for the owner to hang on the wall. In Bab's view the restaraunt is lucky she even came.
The waiter or waitress was left a lasting tip. The waiter will be able to tell his kids, and his kids kids that he got to spit in her food, add a special something to her soup, and put some snot in the salad.

Good point. You'd think not wanting to have her food spit on would motivate her leave a decent tip. I'm sure her stinginess is well known in the LA restaraunt community.

Here is another BS story.
She was in Vegas a few years ago for a performance. She demanded that the hotel replace all the toilets in her room as she didnt want to use toilets that someone else had used.
Also, she ventured to the Casino to do a little gambling. She was playing black jack. She was playing $5 a hand. Upon winning one of the hands she then had $10 sitting in the bet circle. Realizing that she hadn't removed the $5 winnings, she exclaimed "what, am i crazy!" and reach over and pulled the $5 chip off the top and continued to be $5.

You know the IRS assumes tips amounts based on sales and taxes/withholds on the assumed (not the real) tips.
So bottom line Babs you stiff the guy and your much loved IRS taxes the guy on what the IRS thinks you should of tip him

"November 5th
what a day
a new day
.finally Dr. Kings words ring true that one day we will live in a nation where people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. After 2 stolen elections, this time, in this election over 57 million Americans made their voices heard. I am so proud of our country today
miraculously overnight we have regained the respect of the world. From England to Africa, people are celebrating Barack Obamas victory
proof that he is the first truly global President. Last night, Americans took this wonderful country back from the party and the leaders that have led us astray over the past eight years. So I thank each and every one of you for standing in line for hours to vote. Americans have regained their optimism and renewed their sense of hope ...and now we all look to a brighter tomorrow. Unlike most of the public, the pundits and the politicians, President-elect Barack Obama rejected the idea of an America comprised of blue states versus red states
and last night he proved to each and every one of us that we truly are the United States of America. "
