An Ohio man at the market told President Obama that business has been "Terrible since you got here," according to the White House pool report. Via the pool report:

Potus stopped to meet people waiting for him, where he did the requisite hand-shaking, high-fiving and the rare baby-holding before going on to chat with proprietors at Turczyk's Meats and the adjoining Larry Vilstein's, Christopher Bakery and Edward Badbuster & Son. He then asked the proprietor at Rolston Poultry how business was going. "Terrible since you got here," the man said. Pool could not get close enough to the Rolston Poultry man to get his name or political affiliation. Potus didn't appear amused by the sentiment.

Wonder what meant by “here”. Probably meant the market—the SS probably cleared it out before Nobama arrived. But maybe he meant “the presidency”! Nobama must have taken it as the latter. Tee-hee!

Together with the NH man: “couldn't run a lemonade stand”, a spectacular public meltdown is coming.

Never seen the Office of the Presidency being so downgraded.

Here is another ‘Unprecedented!!!!’ by this usurper.

Of course babies are rare at Democrat events. Democrats kill their babies in the womb.

Mitt showed the way on Wednesday night. Just tell the truth and look him in the eye...and Obama freezes in place.

That man’s business will be lot worse after the IRS gets through with him. You cannot insult 0bama and get away with it.

Don't criticize a Dem..

Patricia Mendoza of Westchester, Illinois expressed her criticism of our leader, President Bill Clinton, in a public park in Chicago (1996). Fifteen minutes after Clinton left, she was arrested for her comments. Her husband Glenn shouted out to her that she might need a lawyer. This intolerable use of speech caused him to be arrested as well.

I recall stories of the ongoing harassment of Mr. and Mrs. Mendoza by the Chicago police, DoJ and the IRS for years.

Then there was the 1993 incident when William Kelly of Chicago was arrested for shouting to Clinton asking where was the middle class tax cut.

What makes the criticism of Obama so bad is that it was obviously, without doubt, no question, how could anyone argue otherwise.. RACIST!

Potus seemed enamored by the shop’s name.”It is no coincidence that I’m stopping at Michelle’s bakery,” Potus said. “I just want to point that out. And she spells it the right way, with two Ls. That’s the correct way. How are you. Good to see you. So Michelle, when did you get started with this?” Potus ordered one piece pumpkin cheesecake ($2.95), one Danish butternut loaf ($6.95) and one loaf of zucchini bread ($6.95). He insisted on taking a photograph in front of the sign that read “Michelle’s Bakery.”

Gotta fluff up that beard every now and then.

“He then asked the proprietor at Rolston Poultry how business was going.”

Dear proprietor, get ready for an in-depth audit!

And he called that beast "Sweetie" at the debate. We can be absolutely assured she is nothing but a beard.

Sweetie. Heheh.

I’m sure the remark was specific but applies generally and spans a few months short of four years. According to a photo that accompanied another post of this story, the sign above the Rolston stall says those were real Corn Fed Chickens coming home to roost.

PS: Haven't been to the West Side Market in a couple years (great place to shop) but I'll be driving up tomorrow to buy a few roasters.

The shop in question sells halal goat and lamb meat. Bet that made the zinger sting a little more. POTUS was probably expecting a warmer greeting from that kind of vendor.
