Republican Rep. Bob Goodlatte has invited White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders back to Lexington, Virginia, saying the rude reception she received at the Red Hen restaurant didn’t reflect the “kind and caring people” of his district.

Mr. Goodlatte, who represents the Sixth Congressional District, reached out Saturday to Ms. Sanders, a day after she was kicked out of the eatery by owner Stephanie Wilkinson, who cited her opposition to the Trump administration.

“What @PressSec experienced in Lexington last night is very unfortunate and doesn’t reflect accurately upon the kind and caring people of Lexington that I know,” tweeted Mr. Goodlatte. “There are many great innovative businesses in #VA06 that I hope you’ll come to back to visit.”(continued)

If anyone, it’d be the owners of the Red Hen restaurant

The new owner after they change the name, the menu, and the attitudes of the staff.

The Nigerian scammers send out jillions of their email, often with hijacked email accounts. As phony and poorly written many of them are, if 0.25% go for the scam they have achieved their goal.

I have decided that since I look like any Anglo Dad or grandpa the servers profile me. If they think I will tip well then they’ll come grab me.

But if I remind them of their Dad then I get poor service.

I still think that most of these snowflakes have parental issues that they cover up.

Didn’t the owner say she polled her employees who were mostly gay about serving Sanders? New owner would not only change the attitudes but their deviant sex behavior.

No way! She should not return to that town for anyone or any reason. If my car ran out of Gas in Lexington, I would push it to the next town.

Don’t go there Sarah. They’ll just take this as an opportunity to disrespect you.

If I were Sarah, I wouldn’t eat at any restaurant in that town, or most towns. I would have the White House kitchen pack me meals or eat at respectable people’s homes.

There are too many disgusting people in the food industry. imho

Be wary, these are not rational people

What is irrational about them?

They know people follow the strong horse. They are getting away with every escalation.

What's not rational is letting them get away with it.

"No way! She should not return to that town for anyone or any reason. If my car ran out of Gas in Lexington, I would push it to the next town."

I can't talk about now, but when I lived there 20 years ago, it was a really nice place to live. It is where VMI and Washington and Lee (W&L) University are. I went to the same church that Stonewall Jackson used to teach Sunday school. Very conservative them, all sides were "live and let live."

I was in law school then at W&L. You were allowed to smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol and clean your shotguns (after hunting) in the student area. That used to send the new security guards off balance. OBTW, it was a very safe area. We only locked up the house when leaving for several days.

VMI is in Lexington, VA. How many VMI grads are FBI agents? Think on that, Sarah, and stay out of Lexington. Yes, we have been there a couple times. Probably won’t visit again.

That’s so true. On the other hand I get very smart female servers that know how to walk the line near coming onto you. It is almost funny how blatant some are.

What restaurant will be take her to? The opposition will start harassing that business.

Maybe there's a Chick-Fil-A there.
