"Fellow patrons had their cellphones temporarily confiscated to prevent pictures from being taken."

Why didn’t they run her out of the resturant?

Did you hear those veggies were grown using reclaimed sewage?

It’s good to be the Queen.

[BunnySlippers]

Do you have a reliable news source, not a blog?

[a fool in paradise]

I’d tell the restaurant, “if that’s your position, I’m leaving and won’t ever return”.

I read a similar report this morning in the NY Post. If Michelle decides to go to a public restaurant, then she shouldn’t expect the people who are in there to be inconvenienced for her sake. I wouldn’t give the SS my cell phone either. And besides, who’d want to photograph that fat, ugly beyotch?

I don’t want to break my cellphone by taking her picture, I’d make sure it was put away.

Read post #23....It’s true!

It looks like the only source so far is the NY Post. I like the paper but it has screwed up before.

I'm holding out for another source before I believe this. It makes no sense at all. Political wives are used to this stuff, it goes with the territory, and Michelle seems to enjoy her fans. I find it very hard to believe, unless she was worried about the girls.

Democrats got upset when Bush had the White House chef making burgers.

Theft Under Color Of Law.

Hey, those must be the guys Peloso saw.

"Queen Obama has a perfectly wonderful chef in the mansion (and from what I hear scrumptious organic veggies, home-grown)."

Yeah, with higher-than-normal lead levels.

The audacity of the peasants for wanting to get a picture of Her Highness! Imagine such hubris!

[keepitreal]

Yep. But a little sewage never hurt anyone-especially politicians who are used to shoveling it all day every day. :-)

Perhaps it was to protect their cameras!

Honestly, I don't think that she has the authority to do this. I know I'd have refused. Of course I wouldn't be visiting a restaurant if I knew she was going to be there.

[Carley]

Only her supporters would want pictures. This ought to make them all so happy.

[Tired of Taxes]

Who are these people who surrendered their cell phones? FMCDH... lol. A few years ago, my cell phone saved my life. (I’m not kidding.) I wouldn’t surrender it without a fight.

[CaptRon]

Lawsuits for everyone !!!!!!!!!

From the article:

Mendelsohn's Good Stuff Eatery in DC for cheeseburgers, onion rings, fries, and milkshakes.

Eh? I thought Michelle Ma Belle was into organic gardening and such. Wow, in this day of health reform, whodathunk our First Lady would be scarfing down junk food. I'm shocked I tell you ... shocked.

I guess she's too far away from mandatory end-of-life counseling to care about nutrition and such.
