Lucky Waitress Redux

by digby

Over the week-end I wrote this post about CNN's unbelievable report about the 84 year old waitress who was lucky to have a job and be able to survive because her house is paid off.

Anyway, Crooks and Liars captured the video and it's really worth seeing so that you can actually see this woman waiting tables and hear her talk about how she thought she could "relax a little bit" but that "it's not that way." And then listen to the totally inane discussion by the journalists.



They don't even mention the sad necessity for this 84 year old woman to still be doing manual labor.
