In
my mind, the POTUS is the embodiment of The People
and our representative to The World. Even when he’s in the bathroom.
But particularly at a foto op. Just Me™?
So I thought, maybe it’s the Gurrl in me not comprehending Guy Stuff,
so I asked The Mister. Who is a Guy.
We both think Scott Van Duzer, left, owner of Big Apple Pizza and Pasta
Italian Restaurant is essentially a big, friendly dawg of a guy who
meant no harm. [He clearly coulda broken Obobo's back but he didn't. so
there's that.]
But The Mister’s take was at 0:06 where he says “Everybody look at
these guns!” and em-bare-assing the guy. Not quite “Looka them teats,”
but not appropriate, either.
Also the *joke* “What’re you a
power lifter?” Power — geddit.
Cuz he certainly couldn’t have been referring to his own significant
weight
in a rational world. Hell — *I* could lift that
little toothpick.[
cont]
Nobody
touches the President…ever, unless they have clearance. So, the pizza
dude is a fake, shill, plant, paid accomplice or P.O.S., depending on
your choice of descriptions.
Lose business? Just go bankrupt, like Solyndra and wait for Uncle Sugar
to pay the tab, or realize you’re on your own and you just shit your
pants.
Dumbass. Another piece of toilet paper for a ruthless politician.

Agree with KisP 100%. The bear hug might have been a surprise but the meeting was arranged and sanitized long ahead of time.
ReplyDeleteWhat disgusted me most was almost immediately after the picture was released, the pizza guy goes running to the media that he's being boycotted. I've seen less orchestrated performances at the opera.
Fake but accurate.
ReplyDeleteUhbama is utterly déclassé.
In return for the Man of the People photo op, Uhbama probably gave the guy an I-phone with all his speeches and his private phone number. So he can send Moochelle free pizza, or something.
Lt. Col. Gen. Tailgunner dick
I read that he is crying now because his regulars are not showing up anymore.
ReplyDeleteWhere was the Secret Service when the events pictured here happened? Shouldn't they have absolutely ventilated this person for having the temerity to actually TOUCH the President of the U. S. of A.? If Joe or Jane Bluecollar had tried it, the "press" would be counting "fatal body wounds;" this guy was living large and riding the edge for this photo-op.
ReplyDeleteI will believe the boycott when they can point to some grass roots or astroturf movement behind it.
ReplyDeleteAnd, so what? The mayor of Boston refused to eat a free Chick-Fil-A offered him at the DNC. Maybe it was because he learned that the friendly guy who sold the meal was BLACK!

The deification of the Presidency is a modern phenomena, the Speaker of the House used to be the most powerful man in government. People used to visit Abe Lincoln and ask for a job because they figured he worked for them. He is just a guy we hired to do a job for us.

The encounter and photo are a set up campaign appearance.
ReplyDeleteRead in a newspaper article today the the SS had "sanitized" the premises by removing all knives, scissors, etc. before allowing O'Bozo to enter the store.
Try running a pizza/pasta restaurant with no knives.
