I’m running very low on juice here at O’Hare, but I just wanted to poke my head in and say that, yes, in that whole Hillary-tip story, the person who came out looking the best was Anita herself. Her quote:

“You people are really nuts,” she told a reporter during a phone interview. “There’s kids dying in the war, the price of oil right now — there’s better things in this world to be thinking about than who served Hillary Clinton at Maid-Rite and who got a tip and who didn’t get a tip.”

Would be well tattooed into our foreheads, backwards, so that we never forget. But, luckily, we have you commenters, which is only a little less painful but just as on point.
