Scott Van Duzer, Big Apple Pizza Owner Says Sales (And Hugs) Are Up

I'm glad he's doing well.

They put most of their social security/welfare checks towards Viagra, Ben-Gay, and Ensure.

or as I like to call them, "Grampers"

owner was stoked that Bush came in. Even if it was Robme on campaign. Even as a Democrat I would have loved Bush coming into the cafe my girlfriend and I ran. We'd have had all kinds of people wanting to come in and eat because of that. I would have put "Thank You For The Visit President Bush" up on the reader board myself the second they drove off! I would have only been mildly disgusted with myself.

We tried out a new deli a few years back, and every time we were there, they had the two big tvs blasting Fox News. It was too much. I also avoid places that go out of their way to push their politics.. There was a nice local steakhouse that we enjoyed, then in 2000, she put up these GIANT Bush signs in front of the restaurant, almost obscuring the building, and had more Bush stuff inside. It was just too in-your-face for us. But knowing someone supports a republican, or hugs the President regardless of party, is not going to drive me away.

I'm sincerely happy that the threats, bad reviews, etc. made by those unhappy with Mr. Van Duzer have now been overshadowed by community support.

... and this is a win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win!

...not with this kind of action. I'm not saying all republicans are heartless, selfish, greedy sons-of-bitches; just most that I'VE met. I have 9 siblings, and the older ones are ALL repukkkes. One of them is just simple minded and gullible...the other three are sick, twisted, selfish, greedy bastards. I have friends and neighbors that are repukkkes...and they vary, but most are just ignorant of any facts and simple logic....while some others are just racist, gun-worshiping idiots. I haven't met a repukkke like this Scott, but I'm sure there are some out there. Who knows...maybe he was just ignorant of facts too.

I stopped by a shop yesterday that I visit a few times a year, and the old buzzard that runs the place started in on how "Obama didn't put his hand over his heart when he said the pledge of allegiance with Hillary and Richardson during the debates", and "there's an awful lot of fishy stuff going on in this administration today", and other BS like that. One was he said he just listened to someone on the radio who had audio-taped people at the DNC convention who expressed that they felt corporations shouldn't realize a profit, blah, blah, blah.

I asked him if he ever heard of Thom Hartmann, Randy Rhodes...or knows of any progressive radio in Portland, and he said he had no idea. I simply tried to tell him he seriously needs to listen to BOTH SIDES and then make up his mind, and not just listen to fox and right wing radio. That went right over his head.

We are living next to some pretty ignorant, hateful and happy-to-be-both fools. It's hard to make the horse drink, blah, blah, blah. But it's so true. My siblings would sooner drink a bottle of castor oil than even listen to President Obama give an address, let alone a political speech.

Guess they just have to die off...and most of them are about that age. I silently applaud when one of my friends who is an avid repukkke croaks. I feel bad for losing them, but the world is a better place in the long run. Maybe that's an awful thing to say...but it's true in my heart.

There is so much mis-information and downright lies floating in the right wing air-waves; and that's not to say there is some in the left air-waves as well. But this country is screwed with the propaganda war that is being waged against this President and the Democrat(ic) Party today. (They all seem so tickled when they call us "the Democrat Party".) Such simple minded morons.

Only has made the last 12 years harder...

K&R

to order over the course of the next 3 months and the 3 months after that in order to keep the sales up instead of

just a large spike.

I figure I'll buy one on November 5th and donate it to the Democratic Party of Ft Pierce.

There are quite a few decent people who still have "R" after their names. Look at how many Republicans crossed the aisle to defeat Gay Marrige Repeal in the NH House.

if it wasn't for that dumb boycott. They did him a favor. I wonder what they think of all this?

I gave to his foundation.

Good work DUers, Dems, Libs, Progressives and anyone else that does the correct thing vs. the "Right Wing" thing.

helps out small businesses immensely and will do so even more so in the future....Republicans ONLY care about the rich and their corporations - who love putting small businesses and any competition on any level out of business....

Republicans always pretend to like small business - but it's all lip service - Bullshit - just like the republicans pay to Social Security & Medicaid...they say they want to help keep it....but they've been trying to destroy it since the New Deal - They hate it and the republicans are liars....anything to fool the people.

Obama and democrats really do love & help small business as Obama showed write offs on taxes and making it easier to secure loans and help buy materials and equipment to expand.
