<p>As <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/303437/obama-iowa-rally-caterer-wears-a-government-didnt-build-my-business-i-did-t-shirt-to-serve-food/" target="_blank">The Inquisitr reported earlier today</a>, Iowa caterer Ross Murty wore a &#8220;Government Didn&#8217;t Build My Business, I DID&#8221; t-shirt to an Obama campaign rally.</p>
<p>Now the owner of a small Virginia bakery called &#8220;Crumb and Get It&#8221; has declined a visit from Vice President Joe Biden and cited Obama administration policies regarding small business as the reason.</p>
<p>Chris McMurray runs the mom-and-pop bakery with his wife Kelly in Radford, Virgina and respectfully asked the Biden advance team to find another venue for the photo op. McMurray explained his reasoning for Roanoke&#8217;s <a href="http://www.wdbj7.com/news/wdbj7-radford-business-owner-declines-joe-bidens-request-to-stop-in-store-20120815,0,4370357.story" target="_blank">WDBJ, Channel 7</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Very simply, ‘you didn&#8217;t build that&#8217;&#8221; McMurray said. &#8220;Speaking of small businesses and entrepreneurs all across this country and actually last night my wife was up all night. No sleep, she&#8217;s worked a full 24 hours.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>In short, McMurray believes that when it comes to &#8220;Crumb and Get It,&#8221; he and his wife did build that.</p>
<p>For Biden, who is <a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/301725/joe-bidens-theyre-gonna-put-yall-back-in-chains-comment-drawing-backlash-video/" target="_blank">having a rough week</a> anyway, that&#8217;s the way the cookie crumbles. Biden evidently visited the River City Grill around the corner, however.</p>
<p>McMurray added that he apparently has some secret fans. A detail of Secret Service agents showed up at the bakery and thanked him for just saying no; the agents then bought some cupcakes and cookies.</p>
<p>Here is the report about Chris McMurray that aired on WDBJ Television:</p>
