A Cincinnati woman wants footage of her business removed from one of President Obama's campaign ads.

"I’ve been put into a position I didn’t ask for," Debra Krause-McDonnell told the Cincinnati Enquirer. "I’m a little angry."

She's not willing to let her business be a political prop for either side, however — saying she would be just as upset if her store were in a Romney ad.

so the obama campaign has so few small business owners supporting them that they had to deceive one to merely show in their commercials..pretty sad..but that is the obama white house..

If she is fighting it this strong, she is clearly a covert Romney supporter. She just doesn’t want the liberal mafia to come down on her too hard.

I agree with her 100%. If I run a business, I want my business to be profitable. I can not be optimally profitable, expand my business and grow if I am perpetually in a position of offending ~50% of my clientle.

Now, which party I support or contribute towards, is and will always be MY decision. However, having either political party use my business (without my permission) to further THEIR careers is wrong.

She must have known someone was there recording her, didn’t she find out what they were up to?

Of course, since they were Oh-Bah-Mah’s people, they probably lied to her.

Well, if leftist artists ask Repubs to not use their songs (Heart, Sarah Palin and Barracuda for example), there should be no problem asking Dems to respect the same "rule".

It’s only smart if she doesn’t want any OWS style vandalism. Who wouldn’t want that?

The store owner also said that she was losing business because of the ad. It seems that some folks were offended that her store front was in an 0bama’s ad and are not doing any more business with her. Plus they lied to her about what the ad was about. I posted the link about the interview she said about losing business because of it.

” she would be just as upset if her store were in a Romney ad.”

LOL, but it wasn’t, was it?

Atually they lied to her. She was told the video was part of some sort of study for storm doors.

I believe the DNC said that, that could be true.
