Sarah Huckabee Sanders Kicked Out of Virginia Eatery

Who is more deserving of one than yurtsie!

Giving yourself a pass for using logical fallacies?

Why would the chef have been concerned about Sanders and others being there if it was just the owner who so adamantly anti-trump? And who was in charge if she wasn't there? Someone...right? lol They needed to call her...that's just hilarious...
Read the story, for goodness sakes. You obviously haven't...or you just refuse to accept what actually went down....
If you want to discus this OK case, start a thread....

Are your resident JPP liberals now going to reverse course and say their condemnation of a certain Starbucks was wrong and that the Manager had every right to ask them to leave and when they refused, call the Police??
<rhetorical; because not only will they fail to see the irony, but also the hypocrisy>
 
RIF. I read the story on several different sites. Apparently Y O U missed some important points in it. Btw, nice dodge on the OK bigot. We all saw what you did here.

LEXINGTON, Va. — Stephanie Wilkinson was at home Friday evening — nearly 200 miles from the White House — when the choice presented itself. Her phone rang about 8 p.m. It was the chef at the Red Hen, the tiny farm-to-table restaurant that she co-owned just off Main Street in this small city in the western part of the state. Sarah Huckabee Sanders had just walked in and sat down, the chef informed her.

“He said the staff is a little concerned. What should we do?” Wilkinson told The Washington Post. “I said I’d be down to see if it’s true.”

As she made the short drive to the Red Hen, Wilkinson knew only this: She knew Lexington, population 7,000, had voted overwhelmingly against Trump in a county that voted overwhelmingly for him. She knew the community was deeply divided over such issues as Confederate flags. She knew, she said, that her restaurant and its half-dozen servers and cooks had managed to stay in business for 10 years by keeping politics off the menu. And she knew — she believed — that Sarah Huckabee Sanders worked in the service of an “inhumane and unethical” administration. That she publicly defended the president’s cruelest policies, and that that could not stand.

“I’m not a huge fan of confrontation,” Wilkinson said. “I have a business, and I want the business to thrive. This feels like the moment in our democracy when people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals.”

Several Red Hen employees are gay, she said. They knew Sanders had
defended Trump’s desire to bar transgender people from the military. This month, they had all watched her evade questions and defend a Trump policy that caused migrant children to be separated from their parents.


“Tell me what you want me to do. I can ask her to leave,” Wilkinson told her staff, she said. “They said ‘yes.’


It was important to Wilkinson, she said, that Sanders had already been served — that her staff had not simply refused her on sight. And it was important to her that Sanders was a public official, not just a customer with whom she disagreed, many of whom were included in her regular clientele. All the same, she was tense as she walked up to the press secretary’s chair.

“I said, ‘I’m the owner,’ ” she recalled, ” ‘I’d like you to come out to the patio with me for a word.’ ”

They stepped outside, into another small enclosure, but at least out of the crowded restaurant.

“I was babbling a little, but I got my point across in a polite and direct fashion,” Wilkinson said. “I explained that the restaurant has certain standards that I feel it has to uphold, such as honesty, and compassion, and cooperation. “I said, ‘I’d like to ask you to leave.’ ”

Wilkinson didn’t know how Sanders would react, or whether Trump’s chief spokeswoman had been called out in a restaurant before — as the president’s homeland security secretary had been days earlier. Sanders’s response was immediate, Wilkinson said: ” ‘ That’s fine. I’ll go.’ ”

Sanders went back to the table, picked up her things and walked out. The others at her table had been welcome to stay, Wilkinson said. But they didn’t, so the servers cleared away the cheese plates and glasses.

“They offered to pay,” Wilkinson said. “I said, ‘No. It’s on the house.’ ”

Wilkinson had no regrets about her decision.

“I would have done the same thing again,” she said “We just felt there are moments in time when people need to live their convictions. This appeared to be one.”

So basically, her staff was butthurt and wanted to get revenge. :good4u:
 
Try it and see. :dunno:

BTW, the place is tiny. I think it only seats 26 maximum.

26 seats maximum, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

So phoned in reservations for 20 to 26 patrons, at a time, who then show up those reservations in MAGA hats or shirts, might just shut them down; day after day after day. :D

Also, BTW, they opted not to open last night. :D

Gee, I wonder why they OPTED to not open last night??

Weren't there hundreds of supporters outside showing their agreement??
 
I believe so; but liberals are now saying that one should only be used for that and the other one, only used for the other.

Seems like a contradiction to me.

Didn't Obama say he didn't know Hillary had a private email until he saw in in the media - on national TV?
