PRESIDENTIAL PIZZAMAKER: ‘BUSH TIPS BETTER THAN CLINTON’

PRESIDENTIAL PIZZAMAKER: ‘BUSH TIPS BETTER THAN CLINTON’



WASHINGTON, D.C. (Wireless Flash) – When something happens at the White House, Waheed Awsim is the first to know about it. He’s not a presidential staff member – he’s the general manager at the nearby Domino’s Pizza, which he claims “is the first place the Pentagon and White House call” during times of crisis. Awsim says he’s politically neutral but he has noticed some differences between Bill Clinton’s administration and the current president: Clinton preferred all-meat pizzas while Bush loves veggie pizzas with green peppers. He also claims Bush is a better tipper. The 30-year-old pizzamaker says he feels a sense of national duty feeding the president, but says Bush gets no special treatment because he pretends every pizza he makes is for the president.
