Florida pizza shop owner powerlifts Obama
Yahoo ^ | September 9, 2012 | Olivier Knox

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...

Very effective humanizing Obama, but the moment was scripted.

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.

That's nonsense but your right to do. These people are small business owners. My uncle has one of these franchises. He is not even political.

I don’t think that’s how the Heimlich Maneuver is supposed to be done- that guy is NEVER going to get the olive out of him that way.
