Waitress Proudly Used Rush Limbaugh's Generous Tips To Fund Abortions
Truth Revolt ^ | 9/23/2014 | Trey Sanchez

Posted on 09/23/2014 5:13:08 PM PDT by markomalley

Speaking to DallasNews.com, Merritt Tierce, a former waitress at a high-end steakhouse in Dallas, Texas, recalled using Rush Limbaugh's very generous tips to fund abortions.

Merritt said twice Limbaugh dined at the restaurant and left her a $2,000 tip each time on "modest-sized" checks. She describes one of the tips paid in twenty $100 bills.

"That was blood money to me," Tierce said, and so she donated "a sizable chunk of it" to the Texas Equal Access abortion fund, of which she was executive director. She explained:

It felt like laundering the money in a good way. He’s such an obvious target for any feminist or sane person. It was really bizarre to me that he gave me $2,000, and he’s evil incarnate in some ways.

Tierce has released her first novel, entitled Love Me Back, which is all about her experiences at the Dallas steakhouse. The Limbaugh story is not included.

Continuing her abortion activism, Tierce recently penned an Op-Ed for The New York Times in which she describes having two abortions. The goal is clear in her piece: to combat the great "lie…that abortion isn’t normal." She writes:

I had an abortion because we were poor and I was depressed and I didn’t know who the father was. I had been having an affair. My kids were 2 and 3, and the debilitating morning sickness, which I experienced early in each of my pregnancies, made it difficult to work or care for two toddlers. I got pregnant again soon after, but miscarried. A few years later I had another abortion because the man I was seeing was emotionally abusive. I had no control in that relationship, so I sabotaged my birth control to get some back. The whole situation was a complete abscess. In spite of my awareness of our miserable present and inevitably doomed future, I didn’t really want to have an abortion. I wanted the man to love me or at least be forced to publicly acknowledge our relationship existed. But he didn’t want to have a baby with me, and I knew that having that baby would have been a terrible thing for my children. And for me.

This is how it really is, abortion: You do things you regret or don’t understand and then you make other choices because life keeps going forward. Or you do something out of love and then, through biology or accident, it goes inexplicably wrong, and you do what you can to cope. Or you do whatever you do, however you do it, for whatever reason, because that’s your experience.

What do ya bet we’ll find out that Rush never ate there?

Yes, who knows for sure if it even happened in the first place? I am not sure, of course, but I question whether Rush could go to any restaurant, and eat in peace.

How does this make Rush look like a bad guy. or her look good. He was generous to a waitress on a tip? She was an idiot who probably lives paycheck to paycheck, but then gives her extra money away to fund abortions?

Leftists sure are nasty pieces of crap.

” A few years later I had another abortion because the man I was seeing was emotionally abusive. I had no control in that relationship, so I sabotaged my birth control to get some back. “

So she deliberately killed an innocent life to get back at an emotionally abusive boyfriend?

What about just leaving the relationship like a SANE human being???

To: Thank You Rush

The story sounds bogus to me also. The only part that makes it sound a little bit credible, is that she would acknowledge that Rush is generous enough to leave a $2000 tip.

[ Too bad that woman’s mother didn’t do the “Honorable” thing and abort that sack of vermin she conceived ]

If I had a Tardis I would become a pennyroyal tea distributor....

” Hello Mrs. Tierce, I am from the Termporal Tea Company, I have some free tea samples to give out today, you interested?”

And I would swing by early 1960’s Hawaii/Kenya too...

Rush knew what he was talkin about when he tagged Sandra Fluke. He had seen the same thing in the restaurant. What a piece of filth this woman is. Wouldn’t you want to be one of her children.

Sounds a bit slut-like doesn’t it?

Either she did it or not. Either way I am betting she is an athiest/sadist who does not hhink there are consequences for evil, but takes joy from evil and hurt.

Sounds like certain tips got her into trouble in the first place.

The tips were cash.

I wonder if she reported them as taxable income or not ...

Note the Vacant Stare, the defiant look in her face as if to say she hates everyone and blames everyone for her poor lot in life and feels no need to assign any sort of rightfully deserved blame on herself for her circumstances...

I agree with you, especially after I read this bit:

“Texas Equal Access abortion fund, of which she was executive director”

If she was the executive director then why was she working as a waitress in a steak place? Seems fishy to me.

Pray for her children....those who she let live and the one/ones that weren’t given life.

I am “really sure” Lois Lerner’s IRS will get right on that.....

They will probably arrest Rush for giving too big of a gift without filling out some damn esoteric IRS form....

Seems Rush certainly is not a bigot or misogynist, tipping her generously for her job performance, rather than withholding a gratuity based on her politics or sex.

Merritt Tierce's character, morals and ethics, on the other hand, are less than stellar.
