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.

"Excuse me, but there's been a terrible mistake.
This table is Lord Clinton's favorite table,
and I'm afraid I must ask you all to move."

I'll bet the restaurant owner picked up the tab, to boot!

(and the waitress got stiffed).

Wonder who picked up the check? I'm sure that's traceable. It would be interesting.

If Hillary had been there, there wouldn't have been a tip, either.

Heck no! The Bush's would have sat anywhere there was room. They are classy people.

You and I did, of course.

at least he treats normal average people with the same respect he treats the high and the mighty.

That table must have been closer to a sink.

In a little, bent sort of way.

Sorry

If I were at that table, I would have said that I would gladly vacate the table -- "AFTER I AM FINISHED!!"

I hope those people did not leave any tips. In fact, they should've been compensated in some way. I would have been tempted to have said, "No, we were here first, tell the Perv to stuff it."

I may have to rethink where I live. I really don't think I could continue to live here if this lowlife scum spends too much time here. What a disgusting embarassment!

"A missed opportunity to pelt Clinton with breakfeast rolls."

LOL! Oh if only we'd known! We could have had an impromptu Hog Wild FReeper meeting at said restaurant complete with "Bubba Blows" signs!

"Of course the Clintons are only pretending at being "beautiful people." They are just plain trash."

I am often reminded of a line from "In the Heat of the Night" where a wife is speaking of her lowlife, highminded politician husband saying, "my mama always said that his money wouldn't improve his character any more than sunlight would sweeten trash." I can't help but wonder if the writers knew Clinton.
