I saw the headline on Drudge, and had to comment on this.

Next, Michelle Obama's health reform plan for the nation's restaurant menus and families dining out

We do not need the First Nanny trying to intimidate restaurants into serving food she thinks is better for us. She is not my mom, and she needs to find something else to occupy her rich *****, jet-setting, life of glitz, glamor and taxpayer funded, five star European shopping sprees.

"But Obama would like to see more healthy choices for Americans dining out, even if it means a restaurant deleting a best-selling menu item.

The Democrat suggested that Americans are "programmed" by taste and advertising to eat many things that the government and health professionals know are not healthy for their bodies. So she wants to facilitate a nationwide re-programming of personal tastes by having restaurants start serving less of what customers ignorantly want and more of what they should have.

One idea Mrs. Obama had is to serve apple slices as the default side dish with, say, hamburgers, instead of French fries, which she confessed to liking."

I know every First Lady wants some social issue to call her own, but the progressives always want to change how we live our lives. Hillary wanted to take away our choice in health care, Michelle wants to dictate the menu at our local restaurant, and then I'm sure she will move onto the food industry and decide what we can and cannot purchase at the local grocery store.

What does "her rich *****, jet-setting, life of glitz, glamor and taxpayer funded, five star
European shopping sprees" have to do with salt?

Because she thinks she is better then us, we ignorant serfs, we need her to enlighten us with her vastly superior intellect, we need her to force us to live healthier lives.... for our own good.
