Florida pizza shop owner Scott Van Duzer lifted President Barack Obama a solid foot off the ground in a bear hug during an unscripted stop at his Fort Pierce, Fla., store. Literally.
So what did the Secret Service think about Van Duzer — a registered Republican who says he'll vote for Obama in November — hoisting the president? "He said I was all right as long as I didn't take him away," Van Duzer told reporters...
"I don't vote party line, I vote who I feel comfortable with, and I do feel extremely comfortable with him," said Van Duzer, who also voted for Obama in 2008...

The Love That Dare Not Speak Its Name
And notice the Tebow UF jersey in the background.
I am amazed secret service did not put him down.
I dont buy for one second that he’s a Republican either. No way would ANY Republican vote for Obama
Lot of stupid Republicans out there.
Well, his record can’t hold him up, so he’s taking applications for stand-ins.
Is Barry looking for a new body man?
Kind of a queer thing to say: they just met.
Pop him like the zit he is.
Agreed! No way the doofus is a Republican.
Sounds to me like Van Duzer is an idiot.
I have a friend who is registered as a Republican but she is very liberal and is a pro-union, pro-Obama person. She is simply confused. She was never a republican.
That was so set-up- the idea and optics being “small business owners” love Obama.
The current theme of the Obama campaign is “You’ll love me even more”.
In another state- his running mate was “giving lap” to a female biker.
Get the message?
They (MSM, Obama campaign) are just trying to keep his name in the news as much as possible with trivial stuff. They don’t want voters to think about the important issues that really matter. Any publicity is good publicity, as the saying goes.
He’s a “Republican” who is going to vote straight ticket Democrat. Many intellectuals will say that they are Republican to prove their independence, but will consistently vote straight Democrat on all tickets.
Prolly registered as (R) so he could vote for Mitt in the primary.
The Ambiguously Gay Duo: Scott and Barry
Well I guess we know Barry is a bottom now.
The place is just a small business in one of those open block malls that Florida is now famous for.
Democratic strong hold; kinda shows Obama as one connecting to average people which maybe his handlers are trying to build on his likability.
Exactly!
Do you honestly believe, for even a second, that a registered Republican small business owner in Florida, would lovingly support Obama? Yeah right
And the respect our presidency commands is washed away.. Another Obama legacy. We need to vote this pansy ass fool out of office! Did they get a room afterwards? I mean, seriously.. Who lifts the president off the ground and thinks that’s appropriate? Check this guy’s mental state but first ask him what the price of his pizzas where in 2008 compared to now.
How many cases have we seen where supposed Republicans endorse Zippy, then later we find out they have
a) only recently registered as Republicans after a long history of being Democrats
b) always voted Democrat
c) flat out lied
?
But a motorcycle officer in the Obama motorcade is struck by a car and killed, and its not on the news.
Very effective humanizing Obama, but the moment was scripted.
Check the comments from the local people.

Oh look, it’s Lumbering John, who’s a few pounds shy of having a full meat loaf in between his slack jawed mandible.
He’s as fake as that henna tatoo on his right MMA wannabe leg.
I call BS.
I say this was staged to get publicity.
Unscripted! LOL
How does the SS get entirely out of the photo. The second he touched BO he would have been put down “quickly”. As with libs, up =down. Remember BO wants small crowds and less donations???
Fags know what they know. And EVERYONE knows 0bama DOES NOT COMMAND THE RESPECT OF HIS OFFICE. What a joke. DISGUSTING!!!
Eeeew. How long did it take to wash the slimey BS off?
idjit.
I spend plenty of time in mid Florida. Next time I’m near this moron’s pizza place, I’ll do my best to stop in and let him know why I’m NOT eating at his dump.
You spelled his name wrong it’s “Man Doeser”.

NEW PLACE TO AVOID, FLORIDA FREEPERS! ANYONE ABLE TO TRACK DOWN THE NAME OF THIS “RESTAURANT” SO WE CAN AVOID IT?!
“”I don’t vote party line, I vote who I feel comfortable with, and I do feel extremely comfortable with him,” said Van Duzer, who also voted for Obama in 2008.”
So, he already voted for Obama...so how is he a Repub?
I’ve realized over the past few days, how stupid of a country we’ve become, and the fact is, these people do respect Obama. I don’t know why, but he is a lot more popular than we want to admit.
I agree the SS would have put the guy down.
It was a total Media setup. MSM loves being spoon fed pablum by this puke and the average American are to stupid to get it.
I thought that was Reggie Love’s job.
Anybody recall the photo of Bill and Hillary dancing on the beach?
Exactly. Try and approach the President with anything looking like an aggressive move, and watch the amazing fireworks. A few martial-arts trained Secret Service would quickly seperate you from the President, and then about two more would Taze you, and three more would have MP5's trained on you: one on your right eyeball, one on your left, and one on your nose.
The biggest takeaway from this is, AFTER FOUR YEARS IN OFFICE OBAMA STILL NEEDS TO BE 'HUMANIZED' TO THE AMERICAN POPULACE.
Wow.
Any small business owner that would even consider voting for this fool is certifiable.
I don’t know if it were staged or not.
My hubby and I were in a cafe coffee shop near Fincastle VA.
Out of the corner, here come in George H.W. Bush with his 2 Secret service guards. The owner was very proud that the president at that time came in unexpectedly. He was like a rock star. Some people will be polite since it’s a president; nothing more.
This is visual proof that Obama is light in his loafers.
FOUND SCOTT VAN DUZER’S BUSINESS:
http://www.bigapplepizza.com/index.html
A google search also reveals he has created a charity called the “van duzer” foundation that collects blood or something.
I s’pose he can collect blood from a bunch of Democrats from now on...there are other charities out there that can get blood and plasma from people who work for a living.
By the way, maybe we ought to visit this clown’s place and just dine and dash....after all, he didn’t build that business, and aren’t we all entitled to the fruits of his labor?
On second thought, screw it....I’ll avoid “Big Apple” pizza places big time. They’re all over Florida, and now I know not to eat at any of them.
I do recall that scene which was totally scripted.
I also recall the Clintons trip to church with Bible in hand.
Should we keep him or TOSS him?
