Didn't it say she also had salads & other healthy choices? Or did I misread that?

Nope, I didn't misread: "Not that there weren't salads and all the healthy green stuff you'd expect would be served in the White House"

Barack needs to eat, Michelle, not so much.
Well if Barack is still smoking that explains his weight because smoking depresses appetite. I guess when his annual checkup in March is revealed we will get the update on his progress (or lack of progress) on his efforts to stop smoking.

Michelle has definitely gained over the last two years.

Instead, they do what they want.
She had to have that on the menu, there were "Fat Cat" Repubs in attendance. They do nothing, unless there is something in it for them. Repubs going to WH today for lunch, you there will have to be a lot of Pork on the menu.

I wonder if you niggling nabobs would crucify Michelle for having a slice of cake on her birthday.

It's a rhetorical question.

I think we should institute a $1500 per year fat tax on the obese to recoup this money - most of which is subsidized by the healthy.
I wonder when the White House crowd will realize that this fat tax is one they haven't charged yet. I can see them pouncing on it just as soon as Obama gets re-elected.

I am sure somehow, some idiot leftie will blame Bush for Michelle's poor choices.

If they were huge balloon people, I could see your point. Unfortunately, they are not. So your point is more of a fail.

The unbelievable part is that you say the obese spend $1500 more on health care and want to charge them a tax of $1500 per annum. That is the unbelievable part.

Only the RWNJs would create a thread about something as trivial as what food was served at a Super Bowl party at the White House. Once again, more proof of just how low these people will stoop to take a swing at President Obama and the First Lady.

Are the RWNJs that obsessed with the Obama's?
