I think we will have to fire up the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous here! We need to suggest some fine dining alternatives to save Hillary's delicate stomach.

[JeeperFreeper]

How very appropriate and ironic that Bill Clintoon’s wife go to a place serving “loose meat”.

[Rummyfan]

The NPR report claimed the meal was on the house.

If it were my place, I wouldn't give those leeches a free glass of water - even if they were on fire!

I think Bill Clinton was famous for going in and eating and never paying, tipping, or offering to buy his SS detail anything.

Bush, on the other hand, not only buys, pays the bill and tip, provides beverages for the SS detail, but chides the reporters into buying something too.

[absolootezer0]

it is considered proper to tip based on the amount that the meal actually would have cost, not on what the discounted cost was.
politicians are usually encouraged to tip generously.
the only people ecouraged to tip more generously than politicians, are clergy.

NPR Editor's Note: Since this story aired, Hillary Clinton's campaign contacted NPR to say that the campaign paid Maid-Rite a bill for $157 the day of Clinton's visit and left $100 in tip money. NPR contacted Maid-Rite manager Brad Crawford, who confirmed that a bill was paid and tip money was left. Crawford, who was not in the restaurant at the time, said that he believes a campaign staffer left the money with one of his employees, but "where Hillary was sitting, there was no tip left." Neither Anita Esterday nor the manager on duty that day were available for comment as of noon Thursday.

“Clinton’s tipping point?” Would that be like cow tipping?

[I see my hands]

Our enemies bring down our towers and then read this.

This is the discourse while our nation is under threat? Who can blame them for pressing ahead?

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

“Despite everything, Esterday did take Clinton’s pitch to heart: she’s still deciding whether to support Clinton or Obama.”

“After all this, I’m still a horse-whipped idiot,” the waitress said.

Clinton's Tipping Point

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

"I mean, nobody got left a tip that day," Esterday said in an interview with NPR after a visit by Senator Clinton.

Esterday. All my troubles seemed so far away.

[Suzy Quzy]

They claim they paid $187.00 for the meal and left a $100.00 tip......I want a NAME that they gave it to!! I want a REPORTER to find out the truth!! GIVE US FACTS!

[Piranha]

Seems like only esterday that a similar report came out when Hillary! was running for the Senate. Her entourage ate at a diner (in Nyack? I don’t remember) and then left without tipping.

[Political Junkie Too]

...Brad Crawford, manager of Maid-Rite caught in the political mixer, who said the senator's staff did pay a tip but "it might have not been disbursed properly."

Translation: someone tried to pull a fast one with the tip (pocketing it all)?

Hillary Clinton at a Maid-Rite restaurant during a recent bus tour of Iowa. That is where she met waitress Anita Esterday.

“I don't think she understood at all what I was saying.”
Anita Esterday on Hillary Clinton

[Paleo Conservative]

It’s not the first time a waitress has been stiffed by a Clinton.

[Revolting cat!]

"Esterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away..."

[Misschuck]

It wouldn’t be news if the Clinton camp hadn’t pulled something. Remember, where there’s smoke there’s fire. And besides who has the track record for lying about everything???

[DCPatriot]

The nursing home employer probably didn’t want a tired, non-alert worker...who’s already worked eight hours someplace else.

[Prince Caspian]

...the senator's staff did pay a tip but "it might have not been disbursed properly."

Ahh, so it was a disbursement problem then. Right. It never made it out of Hillary's pocket.

[editor-surveyor]

"Despite everything, Esterday did take Clinton's pitch to heart: she's still deciding whether to support Clinton or Obama."

This woman has a cognitive disorder. Anyone who works that hard should be able to detect clinton and obama's aversion to ordinary work, and their disdain for those that do it.
