Right Wing Slams Barack Obama For Ordering Pizza. Really.(barf alert)
AOL News ^ | April 10, 2009 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 04/11/2009 12:08:46 PM PDT by Scanian

Apparently, there is no story small enough for the right to try and discredit the President with. Prominent conservative blog Ace of Spades really lays into Barack Obama for, of all things, ordering pizza. I wish I was kidding. Unfortunately, he left out some important facts. Here's the thrust of Ace of Spades' Pizza-Gate: What a douchetool.

How much does Obama love his pizza? So much that he is willing to fly a chef 860 miles to Washington D.C. to make him a personal pizza.

When you're the president of the United States, only the best pizza will do - even if that means flying a chef 860 miles. Chris Sommers, 33, jetted into Washington from St Louis, Missouri, on Thursday with a suitcase of dough, cheese and pans to to prepare food for the Obamas and their staff.

He had apparently been handpicked after the President had tasted his pizzas on the campaign trail last autumn.

Hey, you guys know what says you are really sincere about this whole Global Warming thing that you want to use to justify an economy crushing cap and trade program? Jetting a dude across the country to make you a freaking pie.

He goes on to suggest that Obama is flouting the recession with this extravagance, and suggests a local pizzeria for the President to use.

No one cares, unless of course he is using our money.

Where’s this guy been for the last eight years. Can you imagine what he would have said if President Bush had BBQ flown in from Texas?

One blogger is not the “right wing”.

I didn’t think the pizza was much of a story, personally.

But one blogger is NOT the whole “right wing”.

This is a legitimate criticism. Bush would’ve been ridiculed had he done this same thing.

why is it only the right attacking obama. We know the left won’t say anything about obama, but you would expect the objective fair and balanced MEDIA could find something negative to say... at least 10% of the time

"In fact, his restaurant buys carbon credits from a wind farm in Colorado."

If someone had written this in a fictitious story, a couple of decades ago; readers would have said, "you need to change that - it's too preposterous to be believable".

Who would have guessed that insanity is now the norm?

I hope the right continues to "uncover" horrible scandals like this, so the American people can see how serious they are about fixing the country.

There have been many that have been uncovered long before the election. How convenient for Tommie to find one he can use "facts" to dispute.

A pizza scandal....Wow! Go get 'em, Tommie! /sarc

"Who paid for this?"

The article says the restaurant paid for the chef's plane fare, and Obie is using "his own money" to buy the ingredients locally.

" if that means flying a chef 860 miles."

Was that (round trip) plane ticket on the taxpayer's dime?

Maybe he should just buy a DiGeorno (sp?) at the grocery store and be happy. Doesn't Domino's deliver to the White House?

Why is this illegitmate Kenyan so important that he can have a pizza chef "flown in"? He's like a 21-year-old with his first $100 bill...going crazy spending money.

Liberals are notoriously frivilous with money - remember clintons $200 haircut on the runway, tying up traffic for hours?

Commiebama didn't win the presidency, he won the lottery...and he's blowing [our] money with no conscience.


Recession is when your neighbor loses his job;
Depression is when you lose YOUR job;

RECOVERY is when Obama loses HIS job.

April Fools day was really difficult. I just ended up logging off for the day. It was too hard to tell the truth from the “April Fools!!” stories.

Although I didn’t get taken in by the “He gave the Queen an Ipod - that was too far over the top! ;)

This was not an attack from the right, many of these are honest Chicago pizza people who love Obama and felt shafted.
