Clinton Has Diners Evicted

Ex-president, now man-of-the-people Bill Clinton had a table full of diners at a local Little Rock eatery evicted in mid-meal last weekend because he wanted their seats for himself and his entourage.

Checking into the town's trendy new restaurant "The Living Room" for Sunday brunch, he of the humble roots asked for a table near the window. But, according to U.S. News & World Report's "Washington Whispers," the only window table that could accommodate Clinton's party of twelve was full.

No problem. "The Living Room's" hostess gladly obliged his highness by simply "asking" the more plebeian customers to move to a less desirable table.

Once seated, reports "Whispers," "Clinton had to step away to use his cellular phone, and customers report that he waved at passing cars while talking."

Little Rock locals best be prepared to make more such sacrifices for their home-state royal.

"Friends say the visit proves to Arkansas skeptics that Clinton plans to spend lots of time in Little Rock as he works to build his presidential library and museum," the magazine noted.

And these diners complied, instead of exercising this excellent opportunity to publicly embarrass Clinton? Sounds like they got the respect they deserved.

Clearly, the plebes ascented to Slick's request in order to avoid any misunderstanding via Arkancide.

I cannot imagine any of the Bushes doing something like that. They have more class.

I'd have a hard time making my family change tables because Monica's boyfriend wanted the table we were at but the Arkancides might make me reconsider.

A missed opportunity to pelt Clinton with breakfeast rolls.

Good Lord, Sam. Joe Schmuck, the ragman has more class than this arrogant swine. The good people of Akansas only have themselves to blame for yet another demonstration of the regard sick willy has for anyone who can't further his disgusting ambition.

Anybody know the best way to clean a hearty breakfast of steak and eggs off a keyboard?

I work in DC and I can tell you for a fact that Clinton would ride around in the presidental limo with the light on inside so everyone could see him. The only president I ever saw do that.

I have noticed that liberals in general, especially "limousine liberals" (beautiful people), have a contempt for regular folks and look down their noses at them. Of course the Clintons are only pretending at being "beautiful people." They are just plain trash.

Unless all twelve were burly, heavily armed secret service goons and I ran out of ammo, I would never have moved for that swine.

If I survived I would devote my life to putting that restaurant out of business.

I recall a few years ago he tried to do the same at Striped Bass in Philly. The owner told him no, these folks already have reservations. BC was miffed........

I wish those diners had told Bubba to stuff it, but I can't blame them if they were afraid.

Yep! The press doesn't help, but it's not so hard to read between the lines!

It's not unusual for Bill to make offers to people that they can't refuse. In which case, I hope the diners vacated the seats and immediately vacated the establishment.
