Kevin "The Geek" Kerwin, a business man who owns a computer shop in Lake Oswego, Oregon, said he was slapped by a woman over an anti-Obama sign in his window, Victoria Taft wrote Tuesday.
According to Taft, "Kerwin came to Oregon to get a fresh start after being wiped out by Hurricane Katrina."
She added that he started his business with the money he had in his pocket.
After President Obama said business owners did not get where they are on their own, Kerwin posted a sign in his window saying that he built his own business and Obama had nothing to do with it.
On Monday, Taft wrote, Kerwin was visited by an elderly woman from Dunthorpe, who reportedly berated him for his sign.
When he refused to remove it, she allegedly slapped him.
According to Taft, Kerwin "threatened to call the cops but she left and then shuffled across the street and lost herself in the stores and parking lot."
"He didn't get a picture or see her vehicle and doesn't know her name so did not report her to police," she wrote.
Kerwin emailed Taft to tell her of the incident.
"A woman from Dunthorpe came in my shop today and got upset and hit me. Things are getting a little tense around here," he reportedly wrote.
While appearing as a guest on Taft's radio program, Kerwin said he reminded the woman about the language Bill Maher used against Sarah Palin.
"I'm tired of your party telling us what to do," he recalled saying. Later, he said that liberals have threatened to put him out of business over the sign, but he promised to fight back.

Get ready for the Obama NUTS to come out from the woodwork.
Fortunately his Shop isn’t in Portland or the College towns, his life would be in serious jeopardy.
Once again demonstrating that, even for the most innocent-seeming Liberals, violence lies just below the surface...
He only owns a business because the government was kind enough to not arrest and detain him without a warrent and throw him into Gitmo without a trial.
Perfect use of the First Amendment.
Now go sue that witch for assault and bleed her dry.
Have you been reading Obama's plans for 2013-2016?
‘get ready’? What’s been going on for the last four years?
Frankly, everything in Gitmo needs to be ground into pig food.
Look for an onslaught of more such nuts during the course of the next 3 months.
“Get ready for the Obama NUTS to come out from the woodwork.”
___
Or out from under their rocks, sewers, etc.etc.
Bitch slap the liberal back!...
“Get ready for the Obama NUTS to come out from the woodwork.”
Just wait...When Obama goes down in flames on election night the nut bars will be in the streets.
Thanks for the link, just sent an emal thank you.
I hope all the dumbass Americans who voted for Obama just pick up and move to Canada or France or whatever!
I just sent him an e-mail of support also.
Now go sue that witch for assault and bleed her dry

I kind of agree with you, if she just walks in and slaps you for having a sign, she should be introduced to ‘the system’.
That said, I don’t feel that it is good for ANY business to pick a side when it comes to politics or religion etc since you stand the chance of alienating about half of your business.
When I ran businesses, the only stickers etc allowed on ANY of the company vehicles was an American Flag - the drivers knew it when they were hired and knew I would fire them the FIRST time, no warning.
Like I said, no sense running potentially 1/2 your customers off for no good reason.
I had few rules; that being one, keeping a CLEAN (neat exterior but no coffee cups, sandwich wrappers etc in the cab)vehicle or bed, showing up for work on time, if you couldn’t do these little tasks, you didn’t need to waste either of our time.
I think he’s had it and is very frustrated. I suspect he will get more business now...
