Michele O has no office, no authority - she needs to be arrested for impersonating a federal official

“Military leaders” sure aren’t the same as they once were. Weird sh*t.

Seriously worrisome.

If I were a rep or senator I’d listen politely and then give them the fifth degree about why they are in my office. What has Obama done to force them to be there. It surely isn’t for the military. Follow the money.

Why?
Just let Michelle’s school lunch program die and let the kids go back to easting what they will actually eat.

Makes you wonder what was offered to them or what threats they received.

Are they going to hand old surplus K-rations to the kids? Probably better than the slop Moochelle was dishing out.

Mrs. Obama gives her marching orders to the retired military leaders: "Y'all better get on up to Capitol Hill and save my National School Lunch Program! I want those kids eating healthy!"

Is this satire?
How can these ‘leaders’ be concerned that young people are fit to serve when the chief complaint against the new program and the new lunches is *insufficient calories for healthy growing kids*?
Have these men not done their homework and learned that this program is going to produce the opposite of what they say they want?

It may be, but it is hard to tell these days especially regarding Big Ears and Chewbacca.

Follow the money........

Mrs. Obama has been working the food circuit since 2005, when the wife of newly elected Sen. Barack Obama was named to the corporate board of directors of Wal-Mart processed foods supplier TreeHouse Foods Inc.—collecting $45,000 in 2005, $51,200 in 2006, and 7,500 TreeHouse stock options worth more than $72,000 for each year. The first lady has been the most insatiable crony at the center of the Fed Foods racket. Her nonprofit Partnership for a Healthier America has reported assets of $4.5 million from secret donors.

What’s the big deal? remember when Moochie used the military as a prop for the Grammys?

Old soldiers never die, they just turn into policy pimps.

They are retired, only their wives (male or female) have to put up with their crap anymore.
