Local RW paper Hilarious article on Romney's failed BBQ stunt
Background:
The Times-Dispatch so bad of a rightwing rag that they can't get on Fox News.
Bill's BBQ was like a bus depot cafeteria. It's business went down because people who knew how to make barbecue opened ...like... Buzz & Ned's which is delicious.
Romney later stopped by the 82-year-old Richmond institution — known well for its pork, limeades and chocolate pie — which closed in September after years of decline.
"Bill's Barbecue couldn't take four years under President Obama," the ad says in closing. "Can we afford four more?"
Typically in a poor economy, people eat at less expensive restaurants, but during the recession, they seemed to go a step below Bill's, she (the owner of Bill's and Republican supporter) told Romney.
....
The owner of Buz and Ned's Real Barbecue, which competed with Bill's outlets on both sides of its Boulevard location, said in an interview Thursday that his restaurant thrived at the height of the recession because of assistance from the federal government. Buz Grossberg said his firm opened a second location in Henrico County with a $1.3 million loan from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
The new branch would "not be possible without the contribution of our federal government," said Grossberg, who has helped organize fundraising events for U.S. Senate candidate Timothy M. Kaine over the Democrat's 11-year career in statewide politics.
"It was an even better deal than normal," Grossberg said of the loan.
The 20-year note carries an annual interest rate of 3.5 percent, and the SBA saved him about $40,000 in closing costs, Grossberg said Thursday.
