Re-Name Jack Abramoff's Restaurant --->>>
Edited on Thu Dec-29-05 03:40 PM by Stephanie


Previously known as Signatures, they are now asking for suggestions for their new name:

http://www.signatures-dc.com/suggestionsTop.asp


As per Josh Marshall:



http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/

Ahh the Shame! the Humanity! the pure unadulterated humor value!

Signatures, Jack Abramoff's pricey DC eatery where the beautiful people right-wingers ate well and the congressmen ate for free, is looking for a new name.

And they've set up a special page at the restaurant's website where you can sign up and suggest one.

I think I'm going to put in for 'License Plates'.

(ed.note: Special thanks for TPM Reader OM for the catch.)

Maybe Jack Mahogoff's Fine Cuisine. You think the pie's flaky; wait 'til you see the chef.

Great article about Jack Abramoff, what a scum.

I did e mail the restaurant and suggested, "The Songbird." Because Jack is going to have to sing.
