Congressman Regrets Knocking Michelle Obama's "Large Posterior"
CBS News ^ | Brian Montopoli

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner is apologizing for comments he made about Michelle Obama that were overheard in an airport Wednesday, when the Wisconsin Republican was reportedly heard complaining that "she lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself."

Fishbowl DC reported yesterday that an unnamed Democratic operative had heard a "very loud" Sensenbrenner, pictured at left, make the comments while talking on the phone in the Delta Crown lounge at Reagan National Airport. The source claimed the Congressmen was relaying a story about his response to a woman who had praised the first lady at a church auction three weeks earlier.

According to the Journal-Sentinel, church members heard Sensenbrenner mocking the first lady's "big butt" at that event on December 10.

Michelle Obama has worked to fight childhood obesity through healthy eating and "let's move" initiatives. According to the Fishbowl DC report, Sensenbrenner suggested on the phone Wednesday that the first lady needs to learn to follow her own advice.

Sensenbrenner spokesperson Amanda Infield told Fishbowl on Thursday that the lawmaker would apologize.

"Mr. Sensenbrenner was referring to the First Lady's healthy food initiative," she said. "He doesn't think the government should be telling Americans what to eat. While he may not agree with all of her initiatives, he plans to contact the First Lady's office to apologize for his comments."

Sensenbrenner, meanwhile, released a statement that he had already sent a note to Mrs. Obama.

"I regret my inappropriate comment and I have sent a personal note to the First Lady apologizing," he said, according to the Journal-Sentinel.

Here's an apology idea, "Dear Michelle, I'm sorry your ass is so big."

OR

"If I offended anyone with my remarks, I am very sorry they were offended."

I only know about the navy, but I think he might be unspoken “at rest” if barack had been making small talk and he didn’t choose to go to attention until after barack was done talking to him but not shown in pic... do you remember when W was President, all the stories about how the military saluted him differently, even held their salute while he walked away, not onto Marine One, his back to them, until he was out of sight, and they’d never done that for any other President in recent memory... don’t know if they were true or not... but I bet they were saluting him in their hearts that way... All the military I know hates barack, but I don’t think they would express it publicly... but that’s an opinion.

Michelle is afflicted with “choo-choo booty” — the adipose tissue of her gluteus maximus has expanded to the U.S. Standard Railroad Gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches.

"One cannot critisize the queen."

Her nickname, "Moochelle," is a euphemism for "sacred cow."

They prefer a Florida Evans over Thelma.

Michelle reminds me more of "Buffalo Butt."
