This is a great story, I wish I was closer to Montana! The radio
station America FM was doing one of their "Is anyone listening" bits this
morning. This first one was, "Ever have a celebrity pull up and say
'Do you know who I am?' routine."
A woman called in and said that a few years back, while visiting her
cattle rancher uncle in Billings, MT., they had an occasion to go to
dinner at a restaurant that does not take reservations. The wait was about
45 minutes. Lots of other rancher types and their spouses were already
waiting.
In comes Ted Turner and Jane Fonda. They want a table. The
hostess says they'll have to wait about 45 minutes.
Jane Fonda asks the hostess if she knows who she is.
"Yes, but you'll still have to wait 45 minutes"
Then Jane says, "Is the manager in?"
The manager comes out,
"May I help you?"
" Do you know who I am?" ask both Jane and Ted. "Yes, but these
folks have all been waiting already and I can't put you in ahead of
them"
Then Ted asks to speak to the owner. The owner comes out. Jane
again asks, "Do you know who I am?"
The owner says, "Yes, I do. Do you know who I am?
I am the owner of this restaurant and a Vietnam Veteran.
Not only will you not get a table ahead of all of my friends and
neighbors here, but you also will not be eating in my restaurant
tonight or any other night. Good bye."
Only in America, what a great country!
This is a true story and the name of the steak house is :
Sir Scott's Oasis Steakhouse 204 W Main MANHATTAN, MT 59741 (406)
284-6929 If you ever get there, give this fella a sharp salute, buy
a steak and tip the waitress!
We should never forget this unprosecuted
traitor!
And let's not forget what "our gal" Hillary said to the troops in
Iraq,
"This war has no support from the American public"!!!!

Nope. Didn't happen.
Specifically, the folks at Sir Scott's Oasis Steakhouse in Manhattan, Montana, where most versions of this e-mail claim the incident occurred, tell us that although Jane Fonda has indeed been in their restaurant, she simply said she had to leave when she was told how long the wait was — there were no indignant "Do you know who I am?" histrionics on Ms. Fonda's part, nor was the owner summoned to deliver a defiant "You're never eating in my restaurant!" put-down.

Gee, Colin, THAT story reminds me of when DUMBO deserted the TEXAS NATIONAL GUARD to go work on the Senatorial election campaign for some GOPiggy in Alabama...
According to interviewed campaign WORKERS, he sauntered into the office, propped his cowboy boots up on a desk, pulled out a 5th of Jim Beam and screached: "Do you'all know who I am??!!"
From all accounts, the COWARDLY COKE-HEADED COWBOY was universally despised...
"As you can possibly see, I have an injury myself—not here at the hospital, but in combat with a cedar. I eventually won. The cedar gave me a little scratch."

No it was an e-mail. Sounded good to me. I never liked the b*tch anyway.

God forbid he should have actually HONORED his military obligation, instead of REFUSING (conveniently at the same time the TEXAS NAT GUARD instituted MANDATORY DRUG TESTING as part of F-PHYSICALS)to show for MANDATORY physicals...
What a slime-ball: trained SPECIFICALLY on airplanes which were GUARANTEED never to be used in VN & then had the chutzpah to DESERT...
