Unlikely. Liberals know what they know and nothing will never conflict with that.

http://conservativebyte.com/2012/02/story-about-greedy-banker-who-left-1-tip-and-get-a-real-job-message-found-to-be-fake/

So, the story goes like this: a wealthy, vicious member of the “1 percent” goes into a True Food Kitchen, he runs up a three-figure tab, leaves a 1 percent tip, and then writes “GET A REAL JOB” on the receipt.

Wow, what an awful person! Can this story get any worse? What? He was also a banker? We should have known!

A person supposedly working for the lousy-tipping “banker” took a photo of the receipt and posted it to a blog called “Future Ex-Banker.”

“Mention the ‘99 percent’ in my boss’ presence and feel his wrath,” the blogger wrote.

“So proudly does he wear his 1 percent badge of honor that he tips exactly 1 percent every time he feels the server doesn’t sufficiently bow down to his Holiness. Oh, and he always makes sure to include a ‘tip’ of his own,” the “banker’s” employee added.

Yahoo!, the Huffington Post, and a slew of other news sites ran the story and – surprise, surprise – it stoked the “class warfare” fires.

But after a little digging by CBS Los Angeles, it turns out the whole thing was a complete and total hoax. The incident never occurred and the photo that started it all is a fake:

I dont go by percents, I go by performance. If they were good I dont have a problem tipping 20-50%. If they are bad I still tip 10% or sometimes 1% and if they are really bad then none.

If you had watched the video you would have learned that the real tip was 20%. The bill was doctored to make liberals all puffy.

Nah, I rarely watch the videos posted here. They make my eyes and/or eyes bleed more often than not. I've learned that much here. The other 98% is just flaming posts

Indeed. It's really too bad they can't be as open minded and non-dogmatic as you Puma.

I'm only closed minded to liberals; who feel anyone that does not agree with everything they believe is closed minded. Fact is you have to be open minded to be a conservative. You have to go beyond the group think and have a thick skin. It is easy to be a liberal; you just have to care. To be a conservative you have to be caring and understand how harmful liberal policies are to those you care about.
