She is a role model and is promoting good nutrition. Eat your mickeydees and ignore her. It's the kids that she is influencing that are important.

Most of McDonald's commercials are done in urban vernacular.

Why does it have to be racism? Maybe it's anti-lawyer or anti-rich or anti-snob or anti-women....

Just another example of progressive liberal labeling at it's best

Actually she does.

As we move further towards gov't-controlled health care, inevitably gov't regulation of eating and exercise will follow. I think this will prove to be a major political issue in the coming decades--much bigger than tobacco, for example, since only about 20% of people smoke, but everyone eats. This is not just the FLOTUS doing a little light, breezy PR work. This is major policy.

So are we now to have a backlash against healthy eating? Ya'll gonna buck up against that? LOL!

I only hope she doesn't speak out in favor of Mother's Day.
