Bill Clinton: Friend of the Working Man
On Special Report with Brit Hume, it was reported that Bill Clinton was in Rome trying to galvanize support for tsunami relief. One of his aides called a restaurant and made dinner reservations for Clinton and his entourage of 17.
The Secret Service came in and surveyed the restaurant for security, and the owner ensured that part of the dining room would be cleared to their satisfaction. The owner also bought $1,800 worth of fine wine and food for this event.
When dinner time came, no one showed up.
The owner called (presumably the hotel where Clinton is staying) and inquired about the no show. He was abruptly told, "Change of plans" and they hung up on him.
Now isn't that the way to improve the American reputation in Europe? Isn't Bill Clinton a friend of the working man?
Too bad it didn't happen in Paris.
