The owner of a Florida pizza shop says people are boycotting his business because he bear-hugged President Barack Obama on Sunday.
People are saying a lot of bad things and boycotting my restaurant, Scott Van Duzer, 46, told POLITICO. Theres no middle line anymore, and thats exactly whats wrong with our country right now.
The owner of Big Apple Pizza & Pasta Restaurant in Fort Pierce, Fla., said that both Democrats and Republicans are welcome in his store. But he also said he thinks Mitt Romneys running mate Rep. Paul Ryan whose sculpted abs are thanks to intense P90X training sessions would lose to the president in a workout battle.

Seems quite a bit of the public have had enough of Obama’s lies.
He made his bed, now he can lie in it. Actions have consequences.
#18: Why would the Secret Service allow someone to get that close the POTUS. Oh, that’s right, he’s a fraud.
I lived through Carter, Obama is WAY WORSE!
Well, he did bear hug a homosexual, illegal alien with a stolen Social Security number and a Selective Service number of a dead man . . . so . . . that should count for something.
Everybody in that area should stop in at this guy’s business and tell them that they are heading over to Chick-fil-a, and just wanted to say hi . . . too bad about his poor business choice.
I think conservatives should put out that the *left* are boycotting his pizza, “because he touched ‘the one’ and made him look foolish!”
As lockstep as the left is, they might stupidly join the boycott just because they think that is what other leftists are doing.
They can be just like chickens, pecking one of their number to death because there is something slightly different about them, or just because.
Yes, because of that and the fact they’ve tracked him to visiting the WH, this thing was staged and the SS probably told to stand aside.
This was, no doubt, to give a “news item” for the lapdog CBS / CNN / ABC / NBC to run for free campaign advertising for ‘Bammy.
All staged. Just like everything about Bammy.
It’s all as real as his fake, hacked-together “birth certificate”. All a show with smoke and mirrors.
This guy is a Republican——my a#s. Boycott the motherf###er!BOYCOTT,BOYCOTT,BOYCOTT!!!
Then sit silently and do not complain when liberal businesses give your money to dem/lib campaigns and causes.
Conservatives fund their own demise through hiring/working for and patronizing liberals. Either give money to conservative businesses/products/services or do without.
People think free speech means freedom from consequences. I don’t have to buy his pizza. That’s my free speech.
This guy is just trying to drum up sympathy and support from Obama supporters. Just ignore him, but don’t buy his pizza, either.
he;s a turd poker too, no wonder the jug eared faily had a huge grin on his face.
SS. Sir we think thisnis a bad move
jug ears, no no no please let me have him
Yuck
The black Democrat congressman who INTRODUCED Obama at the 2008 convention jumped ship and the media didn’t even bother to carry it on all of the networks GOP convention coverage.
But this pizza tosser gets a week’s worth of ink.
Boo frickin’ hoo over your man crush boycott.
Worthy of Front Page News?
“Big Mistake.........HUGE!”
It's the democrats who have moved into off the charts insanity leftism.
My challenge is: name a single issue where the democratic party has moved rightward.
Plenty of leftist moves by republicans. But no "right wing" from the dems.
Off the subject, but picking up the President like that is very disrespectful. I don't care that it's Obama. The pizza shop owner is a major league a$$hole. On every level.
The guy is a complete moron. I guess the 300% inflation in his energy costs 0bama engineered for him in the last 4 years wasnt enough pain.
Scott Van DUer.
No one HAS to go to your store, you know.
Tell you what, Scottie: You can have the Obamaites. The rest of us will go to Chick-fil-A.
You know, and I know, and everybody knows that there's no way in hell that the bodyguards would let anybody grab the "president" (even though Nobama is not our president), so this was a "casual photo op" setup, phony as hell, to show that the idiot living in our White House is just "one of the juys."
Golly . . . don't that just make you feel all warm and fuzzy . . . Pencilneck, sissyboy, is just one a' da' guys! Reminds me of Clintoon's finding stones on Omaha beach in order to make a cross, or finding a flag tipped over in front of a patriot's tombstone, or smile/crying at Ron Brown's funeral.
Scott Van DUfus, taste the pain. Everything Obama touches dies.
Participate in a scripted and planned photo op with Obama and suffer the conquences. It was scripted and it was planned. Nobody gets that close to the POTUS, especially this one, without being fuly vetted.
I wish I lived down there so I could not eat there ever again.
Smart business people are subtle in their political activities. Even those who are quite active will rarely do something overtly political in their place of business. People are free to trade with whomever. If someone makes me angry I will buy from a business man or woman that has not made me angry.
I could buy a pizza from a Democrat donor as long as I don’t have to swallow his politics.
But to have a “Registered Republican” (what does that mean when you admit to voting for Obama in the general election in 2008 and plan to again in 2012) going nationwide in his bromance with Obama and then whining when some people throw up a little, well, it’s a bit hard to swallow. He’s pushing a talking point I ain’t buying (”card carrying Republican”).
He didn’t build that anyway so I don’t see his issue ;)
Or they could come in and drop a Chick-fil-a bag w/sandwich on the counter and say “heard you fell on hard times. Here’s something to tide you over.”
Anyone who votes for Obama is no friend of mine, nor will I ever knowingly support an obama supporter’s business.
Had a facebook acquaintance who posted this encounter as it happened.. she’s good friends with this guy. I defriended this person immediately.
No room in my life for traitors of America and their supporters.
he also said he thinks Mitt Romneys running mate Rep. Paul Ryan whose sculpted abs are thanks to intense P90X training sessions would lose to the president in a workout battle.
Should we care what you think??
Boycot the SOB let’s see if liberals can support his business.
It's Florida... is there any other kind down there?
and poeple will think it was real and man of the people crap told by the media all over this country.
We know damn well the media were told about this and what to write.
Remember his wife going to target and there just happened to be an AP cameraman?
Staged events all the time with this joke of a family
Exactly. It is a planned strategy according to one of the press members who attended the Melbourne speech. Of course anyone can register to be a Republican and probably did so to vote for the weakest candidate in this year's primary.
I thought Obama was a “no teddy bears” sort of guy.
And the fact that the SS didn’t take him down the second he approached O’Blamer kinda suggests this was no impromptu moment.
what the hell is a bromance, a homo thing or something?
Heard FOX use it once some time ago, is it a northern thing or something?
Asked around here and no one has ever heard of it but everyone said it sounds queer
OUCH!
No need for him to worry.He didn't build that pizza shop anyway.
Once he is no longer any use to the democrats I'm sure Obama or Debbie Washerwoman-Shultz can get him on food stamps with no problem.
Avoid Big Apple Pizza & Pasta Restaurant in Fort Pierce like the plague the next time I am down that way...
Liberals talk big but they never put their own money where their mouth is...Mr. Van Duzer, you are no Dan Cathy.
one of the comments...No Middle line? Who does this guy think he's fooling? He's not "middle", he visited the WH back in July. He's an Obama hack, lefty plain as day.
This stunt was so obviously staged. Had this been spontaneous, the secret service would have been down on this guy like a lion on zebra.
Actually there is; Touch of Brooklyn (Rt. 1, Ft. Pierce)...botta bing, botta boom.
The Left is CONSTANTLY boycotting everything.
Two can play this game.
You used your free speech - now we’re going to use ours.
Have a nice day. :)
That’s what asshats like you get! “Lifelong Republican?” HA! As if anybody in their right mind would believe that. This is payback for the boycott of Rush which your camp organized. You were complicit in a set-up to make Obama look laid-back and cool. I guess your good friend Barry didn’t tell you what would happen when hope and change left the store.
Dude, you take a political stand in public and the public will decide.
Remember - every seemingly “candid, random person” met by Obama is staged. Always. In a couple days it’ll come out that not only has he met Obama at the WH, he’s some other kind of dem operative.
Why else would he be allowed to bear hug the President? If it wasn’t staged the Secret Service woulda been all over him!
Totally agree...
And if you look up what a “Bear” is, you’ll find out that he fits that fudgey bill....
Like Barney Frank and his “wife” are bears...dontchano!
It's Florida... is there any other kind down there?
Yes, In Tampa Eddie's and Sam's NY Pizza. (They import the water from NYC. I wish someone here had a NEW HAVEN PIZZA place.
