* In fact, Chris Sommers flew commercial.
* Not only that, he flew coach.
* Not only that, he had already planned a business trip to DC, so the restaurant paid for his travel!
And the right gets insulted when we call them liars why? - sarahlee, on 04/10/2009, -7/+298Not only that - but I saw him on the news and he said he was the one who, knowing he was going to D.C. and that Obama like their pizza, contacted the White House and offered and made arrangements to bring the pizza.
What I think is fun about this is that it demonstrates that the White House is accessible to citizens - I mean, the guy was actually able to get through, via phone, to someone in the White House who could help make this happen. I think that is neat. Great support of a small business as well. - kmom5, on 04/10/2009, -36/+312This non-story symbolizes all that is wrong with the repukes. And they seriously wonder why they were voted out?
LOL. - Kombaiyashii, on 04/11/2009, -17/+130This is how stupid the GOP are...They can't snub Obama for the wars, torture and wiretapping because they backed them themselves. They just rely on stupid issues.

T.

A.
He did not fly someone in. The guy was already coming to town, and HE contacted the Obamas.
Is Obama picking up the tab for the pizza? Yes.
Are you a tool who is too lazy to read a 300 word article? Yes. - Zomgondo, on 04/11/2009, -11/+115Q. How does a right winger say "***** you"?
A. "Trust me." - Alheithinn, on 04/11/2009, -7/+106What a hypocrite! Having pizza! How dare he?? What is the world coming to!?
Good grief, wingnuts. Get your heads out of your asses and find something important to complain about. - ewehttam, on 04/11/2009, -4/+91@twinklyjesus
dude, read the article...then post. - ironhide, on 04/10/2009, -12/+89Keep an eye on the upcoming stories on Digg, this crap has already spawned 3 posts.
- clvngodess, on 04/11/2009, -13/+83Let us not forget the royal dinners of the past administration.
- novenator, on 04/11/2009, -4/+73bl8tant, the reason why this is important is because it is typical of the direction American politics is taking the last couple months. The conservatives are attacking Obama for literally anything and everything he does or doesn't do. This is just the latest example of their ridiculous desperation.
- Spytap, on 04/11/2009, -6/+74Oh my god, this is the best comment that could have ever been written about this article.
"He didn't "order Pizza" -- He ordered a Pizza Chef to be flown in to make pizza. You just don't get it."
Uh, after reading the article, apparently YOU just don't get it.
"Misleading title, Obama didn't phone Domino's, he flew a guy in from St. Louis to make PIZZA. Something he could have gone to Pizza Hut for..."
Misleading title? I doubt you even got that far cause no, he didn't.
"That is the definition of ELITIST, and most of you are too dumb to realize it."
So is reading. We're elite readers. We like to be informed. It makes us write things smarter than you do.
"Can any of you afford to fly the chef of your favorite restaurant, to you house to make pizza for a party? NO!"
Uh, actually I could if I wanted to. I would venture to bet that a lot of people can afford a $300 plane ticket.
"Do you think Obama is paying that tab? NO!"
This part is accurate! He was in DC anyway, so his restaurant paid the tab for travel. Then Obama paid the tab for the rest out of his pocket. Seriously, it's right there in the article. Try being elite...I mean reading.
"YOU ARE, IDIOTS."
All evidence to the contrary, welcome to our club then. - birch25, on 04/11/2009, -2/+61They should really be focusing on the warrantless wiretapping instead of stupid ***** like this. Although, if they attack Obama for that, they need to admit that Bush was wrong as well, and that's asking too much of most of the right wing media.
- teamgwho, on 04/11/2009, -12/+68the right wing priority list
gays > flag burning > immigrants > reducing taxes > removing government oversight of industry > bashing government paid healthcare > freedom fries > Hillary Clinton > find new reasons to call someone Socialist > Bill Clinton > PIZZA > bashing global warming > helping poor people > fixing infrastructure > fixing social security > helping the poor > guarenteeing equality for minorities. - apastafarian, on 04/11/2009, -1/+57Obviously, pizza is all part of Obama's secret Muslim socialist fascist conspiracy born from his not having a valid birth certificate. It's all so clear now......
- Skurt, on 04/11/2009, -5/+58You are a douche... RTFA
- inactive, on 04/11/2009, -17/+68More lies from the GOP? I'm really not surprised.
The only people who don't seem to know that everyone is on to their deceitfulness is them. - GaltShrugged, on 04/11/2009, -8/+58Who the ***** is Ace of Spades?
- scottknick, on 04/11/2009, -2/+50This is precisely the game plan they used for Clinton -- throw enough ***** in the air and eventually people will start wondering why there's so much ***** in the air wherever the president goes. It worked fairly well then -- enough to get Clinton impeached for something that seemed irrelevant then and criminally trivial today, and enough to get Al Gore to distance himself from one of the most successful administrations in post-war history and pick a saboteur like Weepin' Joe Lieberman as a running mate. Will it work again?
- HopeForTomorrow, on 04/11/2009, -2/+48Lol, retard.
I'm not even going to attempt to refute that with logic, you wouldn't understand it. - MWeather, on 04/11/2009, -7/+51Yes.
- KingPsyz, on 04/11/2009, -2/+45congrats on the deep dish fail
- lordterrin, on 04/11/2009, -0/+42RTFA
- lightinggod, on 04/11/2009, -3/+44YOU ARE, A MORAN.
- sciencelovesyou, on 04/11/2009, -2/+42I dunno. Think about it.
The pizza is a FOREIGN dish, and it's circular, much like the crescent moon often depicted in stylized ISLAMIC imagery.
Also, it might have been a HAWAIIAN pizza, which is where his BIRTH CERTIFICATE isn't!
I think it pretty much speaks for itself! Capitalizing random words also helps push the point. - theSAMOL, on 04/11/2009, -4/+42A bitchin' Motorhead song.
- jeopardydd, on 04/12/2009, -1/+39Trying to make a list of some common attacks on Obama from the hysterical Republicans. I'm attempting to limit it to attacks made in the right-wing media AFTER the election.
Did I miss any?
The hysterical right-winger have been attacking him for being/doing/intending to:
commie,
socialist

closet muslim,
tyrant
power grabber
not a citizen,
he hates/is ashamed of America

attacking him about stuff like white house dress codes,
wanting to destroy capitalism,
purposefully bankrupting the country to stop capitalism,
purposefully hurting the economy to seize more power,

forcing political correctness
wanting to lose wars, etc.
wasting money on the two wars
putting Americans into danger from reducing military spending
shredding the Constitution
driving down the stock market by speaking
being incompetent
giving the queen an ipod
snubbing the british by returning a bust of Churchill
traveling to other countries
not getting huge concessions from those countries the first time he meets with them
being too in bed with horrible foreign leaders

not being on tv enough (for instance, during the Somali pirate thing)
being lazy
doing too much at once
chuckling while talking about the auto industry

not fixing the economy already
he’s too naïve

he shouldn’t be watching sports
he shouldn’t be making a basketball bracket
he shouldn’t be congratulating the UConn women’s basketball team
he’s a coward
he’s arrogant
he apologizes too much
obama shouldn’t order pizza from far away
pirategate - TheScogg, on 04/11/2009, -11/+48This guy wants to talk about environmental impact?!? How about the environmental impact of hundred or thousands of planes, tanks, APVs, Humvees, etc. zipping around in Iraq? How about the impact of President Bush flying to the Persian Gulf to declare "Victory" in 2003? Look, I know Obama isn't perfect, but the last person I want to hear bitching from is somebody who supported an administration that okayed torture, the raping of the Constitution, unjustified war, and the suspension of habeus corpus when it was convenient!
- Logicexe, on 04/11/2009, -7/+42No he's not "the right" but his false outrage seems to be a fairly accurate representation of what "the right" has been doing these past couple of months.
- JCS007, on 04/11/2009, -6/+38I'm a Chicagoan and I love pizza, and I always believed that the best pizza in the country was in Chicago. How could Obama destroy my beliefs like that?!?!? I must try this presidentially endorsed pizza now...
- crgnetworks, on 04/11/2009, -2/+33Did you read the ***** article, you TOOL?!
- lostlyrics, on 04/11/2009, -7/+36reminds me a lot of radio erewan jokes,
but with american nutscum's surreality
re would be almost culture, haute voilée.
Q.
"Is it really true, our Zwezda, Hero of the People,
Yuri Alexejevich Gagarin, has visited Monte Carlo
and once won five million dollars in the Casino ??"
A:
"It is kinda true. Although it was not Yuri Alexejewich
Gagarin, but Vladimir Afrikanovich Gagarin, and it was
not the Casino of Monte Carlo, but Golddigger Roulette
DriveBy in Archangelsk and it was not five million dollars
but fifty rubel, which he has lost actually and not won." - magneteye, on 04/11/2009, -4/+33Um, Obama was a self made millionaire before becoming president... so.... if in fact he did fly in some guy to make him pizza at his own expense, that is his right as an American. WTF is wrong with you people? I don't tell you what brand of malt liquor 40oz to buy with your cash or scrutinize you for it, do I?
- JTMON, on 04/11/2009, -2/+30You are a moron, a little more reading, a little less talking next time. Makes you look all the less of a jackass.
- addysonclark, on 04/11/2009, -2/+27* In fact, Chris Sommers flew commercial.
* Not only that, he flew coach.
* Not only that, he had already planned a business trip to DC, so the restaurant paid for his travel! - inactive, on 04/11/2009, -3/+27"Do you think Obama is paying that tab? NO!"
It's the restaurant.
OH! You though that it was us? Silly little reactionary idiot. - Echota, on 04/11/2009, -5/+28Rightwing deciet and idiocy should be exposed,even if it's about pizza.
Why is that hard to figure out? - addysonclark, on 04/11/2009, -0/+23Dont forget TEABAGGING
- DephexTwin, on 04/11/2009, -0/+23You can make an argument against =!, but if you disallow =/=, !=, ≠, or <> then you're just a douche.
- addysonclark, on 04/11/2009, -3/+25I'd rather have my tax money spent on things in america, rather than tanks or guns to kill people in Iraq.
- inactive, on 04/11/2009, -1/+22Please, elaborate. I'm hung over and could use a laugh.
- lostlyrics, on 04/11/2009, -4/+24gamblers lose money sometimes ?
thanks for educating me about basics. - Eupatorus, on 04/11/2009, -1/+21RTFA
- Spytap, on 04/11/2009, -2/+22"First ho"?
Show some ***** respect, she's the first lady of the United States of America.
Even if you're not a citizen of this country that's worth something you prick.
Criticize policy and action all you want, but the office is still President and First Lady. Treat it with the respect it deserves.
Oh, and learn to read you idiot. People like you are what's wrong with my ***** country. - fluoro, on 04/11/2009, -1/+20But the point here is that he DIDN'T fly the chef and ingredients from St.Louis to DC. Did you rtfa? Oh no, you didn't.
Typical whatever-the-*****-type-you-are morons.. ;) - steviaextract, on 04/11/2009, -1/+20read the article before you post. he didn't spend a dime flying the chef anywhere.
- AmazingSteve, on 04/11/2009, -7/+26If this is the best they can come up with, they are *****. It's only been 12 weeks. The only thing they are doing is making sure they get trounced again in the midterms.
- dalittle, on 04/11/2009, -2/+19Maybe these conservatives should be working on some realistic policies to be part of the government process instead of being whiny bitches.
- DangerCollie, on 04/11/2009, -2/+18It's really hard to understand the Republican strategy here. Unless they're trying to cement an image of themselves as a bunch of angry complainers.
Why do they think there's any mileage in being anti-everything? Or maybe it's a ploy to let the wingnuts drive home the negative image and then, right before the next election, they're going to bring out the five or six reasonable people calling themselves Republican and pretend they're all better now.
Reminds of the Maxwell Smart movie. You underestimate the element of SUPRIIIIIIiiiiiisssse! -
