Well when you go out and preach about healthy eating and the fight against obesity you are putting yourself in a glass house.

Do you live by your words ?

The Obamas did this to themselves. They don't walk the talk.

Probably most of it I would guess. There weren't a whole lot of healthy choices on that menu, so your point is moot unless you're claiming they are simply serving that to the guests and that they, themselves, just won't eat at all.

It goes way beyond that. Michelle with her platform regarding obesity.

She is out there proselytizing about healthy eating and then offering cheeseburgers, wings, hotdogs, deep dish pizza, potatoe salad, chips, beer, and ice cream on a menu.

Not even a healthy option for those who care about their arteries!

Boy, Obama should learn a lesson from fellow democratic McDonald's loving Bill Clinton and his cardiac bypass surgery. And Obama smokes too. He is getting the double-whammy artery clogging.

Right. Do you have kids? Now tell me, do you feed your kids healthy food but make exceptions for certain situations such as their birthday, christmas, thanksgiving, super bowl, a sleepover? You can't see how utterly ridiculous the people on this thread have been regarding this? It's beyond bizarre. I can't believe I even have to explain this.

If I were to go to a Super Bowl party I would expect junk food. Even if the Mrs. is on a health food kick not everyone is. It is the Super Bowl, after all. The beer is a little snooty azz, where is the Bud?

Dude I'm a diabetic but I still have pie at Christmas, Thanksgiving and maybe Super Bowl Sunday
but I eat healthy the rest of the year, why can't the president?

You do realize a difference exists between moving towards healthier eating habits and never ever eating junk food, correct?

Yep, I have kids. I try to lead by example and when *I* have a "need some chocolate" moment, I don't do so in front of them. Why is that so difficult to comprehend?

This is one of the dumbest threads ever.

Anyone who knows me on this forum knows I am against this administration and all their cronies.

But this is a party. This is a special occasion. The whole point of learning to eat right is what you do on a daily basis. Birthday cake is for your birthday, not for every day. Fair food is for the fair, not for every day. Fast food...well, I can't really think of much good for fast food, but you get my point - you eat well every day with good habits, fresh fruits and veggies, and once in a while, you can have a party and eat party food.

The problem with this country is that everyone wants to eat party food every day.

Do you get that?

Don't undermine your own credibility against Obamao and his minions by posting stupid stuff like this.
