...Freemans tuesday night the 16th of nov. the bush twins along with 2 massive secret service men tried to have dinner they were told by the maitre 'd that they were full and would be for the next 4 years upon hearing the entire restaurant cheered and did a round of shots it was amazing!!! [Ed: We're hearing that this is actually true.]...


Admin Note:

Received forwarded message from info@freemansrestaurant.com 11/22/2004

Regarding the Internet rumors, no member of Freeman's staff made any derogatory or discriminating comments towards Jenna or Barbara Bush. We are a non-partisan establishment and pride ourselves on having a diverse clientele. The Bush twins or any member of the first family are welcome to join us for dinner anytime.

I can't get too worked up. In 2000 I quit doing business with a local Blimpie's Sandwich shop when the owner questioned my BUSH button... and yes I told them why I would not be back. I also give my local Borders Book Store so much hell about their anti Bush books that they hate to see me coming and tried, but failed (the judge is my friend) to get a restraining order to keep me out.

If an owner wants to pi$$ people off, so be it, though I do feel sorry for the two southern ladies this prick yankee offended. I will be in NY after the first of the year and will try to remember to chat with him.

Perhaps four solid weeks of people doing nothing but taking up seats and ordering water will teach 'em a lesson.

What a great idea!!!! Then a lawsuit for harassment and discrimination.

Charming. Perhaps you can send you-know-who there, and she can become a regular. That'd serve them right! ;D

"Taavo is a pretty influential person in the downtown scene," said friend and fan Eleanor Lembo, a partner in Earnest Sewn jeans who shares office space with Somer.

Yet for all his connections and trend-spotting abilities, there are no pictures of Somer to be found anywhere online; he would not be interviewed by The Post, nor would he agree to photographs inside his restaurant.

IT'S COSMO KRAMER!!!!!

If the Bush girls want to eat in these trendy NY lib places..they should probably take a food taster along from now on, in addition to their USSS contingent..

This is in my neighborhood. I wouldn't be so sure that this isn't a publicity gimmick. I question whether this is true. Sounds like some a@#hole opened a restaurant and is trying to get free press by creating a false scandal. If it hits the MSM, the place will be packed.

Just another example of the Dems supposed tolerance. Babies.

A great freep, which could only really be done once if one wants 'clean' food, would be to go in as a large group, eat lightly, and then, after eating, raise loud cheers and toasts for President Bush, until kicked out. And yes, I'd still tip, because I won't stoop to their level.

Of course, would I, or any freeper, really want to eat at a place that would treat 2 lovely women like Barbara and Jenna in such a crass, declasse manner?
