Limpblaugh tip sent to abortion charity. :)

Apparently a waitress donated her $2000.00 tip from loud mouth racist Limpblaugh to an abortion charity. I couldn't be happier. It made my day. If you haven't figured it out, I am pro choice. WTG girl!!! Gee, I wonder if he'll say something on his show. Very unlikely. I'll never know unless it makes the headlines.

It doesn't matter to me. As long as she put it towards something this scumball is against.

3. Taxes?

I didn't think about this, until now. Most likely she will have to claim this tip as income which is subject to taxes. So I'm guessing it cost her about 400.00 to do this. Unless she wrote a check for 1600.00 to the charity, which is unlikely.

8. You don't care to be corrected for furthering right-wing terminology?

If I used rightwing terminology unknowingly I would thank someone for correcting my mistake.

10. This has nothing to do with RW terminology.

I quoted the article. Plain, simple and accurate. I try not to misquote articles.

If you're looking for a thank you, it's not going to happen. Get real.

12. If you read the link she donated it to herself.

At the time she was a waitress she was also the Executive Director of the Texas Equal Abortion Fund which is being called an "abortion charity" in the story.

15. Does Rush give big tips to male waiters also?

If I were a female waiter I would be suspicious of extra large tips from Rush.
