Michelle Obama's "No Food Stamps Diet"
This from people who never miss a meal: Dems may use food-stamp money to pay for Michelle Obama's nutrition initiative
The House will soon consider an $8 billion child-nutrition bill that’s at the center of the first lady’s “Let’s Move” initiative. Before leaving for the summer recess, the Senate passed a smaller version of the legislation that is paid for by trimming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as the food-stamp program.Soon to be known as Michelle Obama's Bangladesh Diet.

Cutting off their food is one way to trim the little chubbers down, albeit a rather extreme one. I wonder why we can't just brainwash them to get into shape in school. It seems to work for every other cause that the left espouses.

All she needs to say now is "let them eat cake." When that happens, watch out.

We've just had our first grandchild. Before she was released from the hospital a social worker/nurse came in and asked my daughter if she had "assistance". She assumed they were asking who would be helping her take care of the baby. She said yes, her husband would be helping. They then clarified that they meant food stamps, WIC, welfare. "Um, no, we work for a living!" was her response.
