Waitress Says Rush Limbaugh Tipped Her $1,000 on Two Occasions — Here’s What She Did With the Money Just to Spite Him

A waitress turned author claims she received two generous tips of $1,000 on two separate occasions from conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh — but she couldn’t find it in herself to keep the “blood money.”

Instead, she allegedly donated a “sizable chunk” of Limbaugh’s $2,000 tip to an abortion charity.

One would think Rush would be a better judge of character.

I wasn't questioning your point, which is a good one. I've read stories about how much money doormen etc. make. In some instances, well into the 6 figures. A bartender with a good personality can make six figures in NYC (truth). Wouldn't surprise me in the least that this woman was raking in cash at a high-end restaurant.

Yep, she was probably raking it in - 3,4,5,600 on a good night, and then there are the Limbaugh nights. She is only taxed on minimum wage too, unless she reports the tips. (cough cough).

So, here we have a liberal little chick, who really works in what is an entrepreneurial enterprise (waiting and bartending is like owning your own little business) - and wants people to pay high taxes, who very likely does not report her own income. She’s a sick little b-tch any way you look at it.

"The IRS is was too busy harassing Tea Party groups to look into her claim. Not going to happen."

Sadly, that is probably true. If an outspoken conservative and new author pulled the same stunt, they would receive the most severe attention from the IRS.

I’ve dated Waffle House waitresses in the past. They make more money than you think. As to high-end (or even mid-level) steakhouses. I made so much in tips as a part-time bartender at a “Steakhouse and Saloon” type business near a capitol city airport (I also got 20% of the waitresses tips) that I almost never cashed my hourly checks, even though my hourly pay was over $6/hr. and just let them accumulate.

I totally believe it for one reason. Only a liberal could combine that level of throat slitting stupidity and spitefulness. Well OK, too be fair, Cheshires are that stupid as well, but the spite component gives libs the overall nod.

Yea, it could be a lie as they do that more often than breathing. But it sounds to me like she wants her 15 min as Sandra Fluke/a hero to the left and can prove it. I’d bet that if Rush responds at all he will say he did the tips. Which she will then jump on, along with the rest of the left to try painting him as a funder of Abortion.

They have to report actual tips or the restaurant has to assign 10% of her gross sales to her salary as imputed tip income. Of course, this is subject to the infamous tip share required by the restaurant so it's to her advantage to report actual tips after the tip share.

Rush ought to send the restaurant a nice letter informing them that neither he nor his entourage will be returning, and explain why...then he could tell his side of the story, including the name and address of the joint on his radio show...

Dunno how true this is, but a number of the comments on the Blaze board are claiming she the group she donated to is one that she runs. So, it may be a case of “donating” to oneself.

Either way, what a twit. I find it amusing that Limbaugh wasn’t so evil that she refused his money...

Wouldn’t she have to pool her tips?

I agree. People on the left like this woman have no class.

Her story already has holes in it...or at least the reporting has holes. Previous FR article (DailyNews.com) said the tips were $2000 each.

Unless she can prove this donation with a reciept (which she would certainly have for tax purposes), I am calling BULLSH!T on this one.

“Sizable Chunk” my Royal Irish ...

Liberals like to talk about donationg money, but when it comes time for parting with the green, they demur.

Do these cretans not realize how poorly stories such as this reflect on the Left? It also smells like one of these racial hoax stories. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was a lie by another attention whore.

Which restaurant? The staff does things to “spite” its customers? Do they spit in your food, too? Inquiring minds want to know so they can avoid that establishment like the plague!
