Sanity -> Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 7:55:23 AM)

CHICAGO – The news is hitting Chicago deep dish pizza makers' eye like a big pizza pie.

President Barack Obama is having 140 people over to the White House Friday night for a some deep-dish pizza — St. Louis deep dish pizza.

It seems during his campaign he had pizza from a restaurant called Pi in St. Louis. That's the story Pi assistant manager Lindsey Tornetto tells.

Whatever happened, the restaurant says the owner and his partner packed dough, cheese and pizza pans in their suitcases and flew to Washington.

Two things:

1. What is the total contribution to "Global Warming" when thye President of the United States flies in everything and everyone needed to make a pizza?

Is the President not at all concerned that the global warming crisis is real?

2. The President says we must all sacrifice in this time of financial crisis. I'm wondering, did he omit the extra cheese... ?

I can't believe somebody makes this into an article........
in regards to the global warming..if he can do this then good for him. We're all going to die anyway, and even though everybody would stop driving their cars, flying their planes etc. etc. the global warming wouldn't stop.
Global warming is 'caused by the nature and it always happens once in a while and there's nothing we can do about it. It even happened when the humans didn't exist. All we "might" be able to do is to postpone the inevitable.

I hope the pizza will taste awesome..and if he sees this post then he would be even more awesome if he'd make one pizza come my way[;)]

Glad to see your on top of Pizzagate Sanity......keep up the good work.




LadyPact -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 11:37:53 AM)

Obviously, Sanity, you've never lived in a place that you couldn't get a really good pizza.




slvemike4u -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 11:39:05 AM)

Like North Carolina for instance.....




Sanity -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:05:31 PM)


No, thing is... I've never been able to just print so much money that I could ever even dream of so many different ways to waste it like this.

But, oh well. It's only our tax money, and our children's tax money, right? No big deal. When Obama runs low he'll just dig the hole a few trillion deeper.

     I guess my question would be, how often do they bring guest chefs into the White House in general?  It isn't like the family living there can hop in the sedan and go out for dinner.  Seems perfectly reasonable for someone asked to cater an event like this to bring their own tools and ingredients.

    Now if you want to make a case that the perks of the job are going to the Obama's heads, I'm going to need to see quite a few more examples. 




slvemike4u -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:36:22 PM)

Nothing in your little story about pizza indicated in any way shape or form the taxpayer got stuck with the bill.
The President actually draws a handsome salary sanity....why do you assume he didn't pick up his own tab?




YoursMistress -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:37:23 PM)

Oh come on.  He's just stroking the people of St. Louis to make them feel better.  Think of it as a hand job for the city.  Wouldn't you like to get one of those too?

yours




Sanity -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:37:23 PM)

It only bothers me because the man preaches endlessly about the evils of SUVs and our use of power for business and pleasure... due to his imaginary friend, global warming of course. But then he has the audacity to fly a pizza chef thousands of miles for a pizza party at the White House... all the while telling you and me that we're going to have to sacrifice.

Eat cake, as it were.

He also preaches endlessly about the supposed outrage of paying CEOs too much money, does he not?

But you are correct, there is virtually no coverage of Obama hypocrisies, though since it is a White House party, taxpayers normally foot the bill.

No offense, Sanity, but lighten up.

mike, it took Me literally almost four years to find a decent pizza in the South.  Not quite as good as some of the places that I've been, but absolutely extraordinary compared to some places that I've been.  Should you ever make it down this way, I'll be happy to take you along.






slvemike4u -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:47:37 PM)

LadyPact with all due respect,I am from New York,home of the best pizza in the world.
If You could actually find any pizza made in any place other than New York that impresses me.....you just might have acquired a faithful and obedient servant...all for the price of a pie.[:D]




Sanity -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:47:59 PM)

I won't lighten up. Hypocrites offend me, and this is typical of our new president. "Global Warming's gonna kill us all, so I'm gonna fly my entire entourage to Hawaii so I can lie around on the beach for a few days, maybe get a picture taken with my shirt off. Then I'm gonna raise taxes on electrical rates to punish the evil doers who run their air conditioning in the summer, or who try to compete with the Chinese by manufacturing widgets in the USA."

Besides, this is the politics section - if you can't stand someone talking politics, it could you're the one who needs to get a little lighter. Ya know? [;)]

You know sanity,you have convinced me.....President Obama has some nerve acting like the leader of the greatest country in the world....he better get his act together and start cutting coupons for the White House mess.[8|]




LadyPact -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:54:30 PM)

Sanity, you're talking about one jet in the air compared to global warming and a couple of hundred bucks on pizza compared to millions on overseas bullshit.  I'd rather see tomato sauce than blood for oil.




LadyPact -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:56:01 PM)

With permission, mike, I'd gladly invite you down.  I'm a yankee, too, and pizza can be serious business.




Sanity -> RE: Obama orders pizza from St. Louis, Chicago miffed (4/12/2009 12:57:49 PM)

[sarcasm]
Why do that when he can just print more money, mike? Cut down another rain forest, we need more paper".

Right?
[/sarcasm]

We're only great because we used to believe in fiscal responsibility, and our leaders didn't talk out of both sides of their mouths. What's so great about someone who preaches this "do as I say, not as I do" nonsense. We've got car manufacturers who are going under because he's "getting tough" with them. "We don't have endless gobs of money to throw at trying to keep them afloat".

Oh, but wait - press conference is over. It's time for pizza!

Holy shit.  (Excuse Me.)

That's why you think we're great?  Are you serious?
