Ol’ burger-butt pontificates.....

[Sacajaweau]

The whole population doesn’t go to McDonald’s for dinner.

[Merlinator]

Healthy eating didn’t help her butt much did it?

[ExTexasRedhead]

SNL will have a blast with this BS.

[Tax-chick]

Is the food at the drive-through different from what you get if you walk in?

[uncitizen]

SNL will have a blast with this BS.

If only. Then maybe it would be a watchable show again.

LOL! Personally, I've found Drive-Thru food is usually served warmer...

[Tax-chick]

That’s reasonable.

[KevinDavis]

I think she should butt out..

[T bench]

I Really am loath to request this, but pictures of her gargantuan size really need to be posted. The press never takes the opportunity to show us this freakishly ill proportioned thing so FR should have an archive to illustrate her bizarre attributes. The best adjective for her is fugly.

I find the whole tone of “life was so hard for me as a working mother” rather offensive. How hard can it be to deal with making dinner and keeping the fridge full when Mrs. Obama was making over $300,000 a year for her job alone - not counting the $1.4 million her husband brought in?

[SMARTY]

I think it’s just a matter of laziness. Women don’t want to get their kids home and sit them down to dinner they have cooked themselves.

It is a life-style concession that was made long time ago.

I used to work with a girl who took fast food home EVERY night and NEVER cooked for her family. Of course they were all overweight, unhealthy and dysfunctional as a family.

Omitting regular sit-down time with dad and mom does a world of harm for children. Fast food is OK once in a while and as a treat, but NOT as a way of life.

AND, do you know how much grocery shopping you can do with what a week of fast food costs?

[NMEwithin]

I have no beef with people trying to promote healthy eating but let's be realistic here Michelle....

with nearly 10% of the populous unemployed, a lot of people are either working their asses off and don't have time to cook a healthy meal or they just don't have the money and those 99 cent hamburgers look pretty appealing...

Not to mention the fact that most people are just plain ignorant when it comes to nutrition.

Yes these two Harvard Law grads had it so tough. And just when did these two become our national mother and father? If I see that PSA with Hussein telling us the importance of being a father one more time I'll scream.

But her perspective changed when their pediatrician urged her to change the family eating habits because the impact of the drive-thru food could be seen in the kids.

Too bad Nobel doesn't give a prize for parenting. Maybe they'll start to, now that we've found the perfect recipient.

From the same people who are bringing you 0bamacare:

definitely

one of the commandments of fast food mgmt

gotta keep the drive thru line moving

customers will avoid if line too long

Steam veggies in a microwave very fast. Frozen bubba burgers in a skillet and whammo, you have a meal, cheap and quick.

With that can she’s sitting on, it’s incredible that she’d even open her mouth (except to eat). It’s like the pot calling a pot a pot. Absolutely amazing!
