Michelle 0bama Gives.....Shopping Lessons?

I saw this over at wirecutter's place, and his response to it was so on-the-money that I had to repost it here.

This is just another example of the democRATS "Do As I Say, Not As I Do" thinking.

(CNSNews.com) - As part of her anti-obesity Let's Move campaign, First Lady Michelle Obama is now presenting a brief online course: “Supermarket Shopping 101.”
The course, which now appears on the letsmove.gov website, provides novice shoppers with tips such as “steer clear of the cookie, snack and soda aisle.”
More of this ridiculous bullshit here

And Kenny's response:

What the fuck is she doing "presenting" a course on shopping? When was the last time she ever went shopping for her own food? When was the last time she went to the store and had to buy generic because the better quality brand name item was 75 cents more expensive? When was the last time she thumped a watermelon to see if it was ripe? Don't answer that one..... When was the last time she had to wrap her kids' lunch in tinfoil because she couldn't afford to buy baggies until Friday? When was the last time she skipped a fucking meal so her kids had plenty to eat? When was the last time she ate Top Ramen with an egg and some slivered leftover ham in it and considered it a fucking treat? When was the last time she checked her bank balance before she went to the store so she wouldn't be embarrassed if her card was refused because there ain't enough money on it? When was the last time she put a picked clean bone in the freezer so next week's beans will have at least some flavor to them?
You want me to keep going?

Well done, Ken!!

  1. That boy Kenny has a way with words, is why I call him friend even though he lives over the border in Libralistan. Thanks for reposting it.

  2. Yep, I'm proud to have him as a friend, too.
    He's one of the few people I wouldn't mind guarding my six.
