Students at ParsippanyHillsHigh School in New Jersey say they are planning a boycott to protest new lunch guidelines stemming from First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign. Under the guidelines portions are smaller, there is less meat and bread and more vegetables. Students say the meals are too skimpy and leave them feeling hungry.
“The problem is too many of our nation’s children are obese,” the First Lady said. “Left to their own devices too many teens are over-eating. Parents aren’t doing their jobs. So, we are using our leverage to take up the slack.”
The “leverage” is federal aid that subsidizes the school lunches. “If the government is going to pay for these meals it has the responsibility and the right to control the menu,” Michelle insisted. “Those who want to eat more than we have determined is healthy can pay for their additional food with their own money.”
The possibility of a boycott was rated “no big deal” by the First Lady. “Refusing to eat also helps fight obesity. Studies have shown that calorie restriction helps prolong lives. Much as we may make fun of places like North Korea, the fact is that the starvation being imposed on the population by the government probably benefits everyone over the long term.”
In related news, Barack Obama is touting the presidential prospects for his wife. “She’s an incredible person and an incredible talent,” Barack bragged. “It would be a great sacrifice for her, but I’m confident she would put the nation’s welfare ahead of her own preferences if circumstances required it. Besides, seeing how slowly things have moved since I got here it might well take another eight years to get the job done. So, those who trusted in me may want to ensure that my policies are carried on by such means.”

Michelle Obama- Minister without portfolio
It’s a semi-satire.
Here’s one. Satire needs some humor to it or at the very least, some exaggeration.
John Semmens is a big giant fail.
With a serving of peas, ya gets a FREE Obama phone!

What part of "semi-satire" did you think I did not get? Especially when I added satire to the satire?
Please show my DU-worthy posts.
Besides, the fact I disagree he’s one of the better satire writers does not make me a leftist.
Logic fail.

Who is George William Bush?
Came back to this thread to say there are a bunch of ugly Sasquatch pics here.
The post on the link said “George William Bush”.
I was wondering who that was.
I am familiar with Perot as I live in Texas. I don’t get your points, truly. You stated my posts were DU-worthy. I still haven’t seen you show anything I wrote to be leftist. Keep trying.
Fact is, you just don’t like my opinion of one writer, so you looked at my sign-up date and tried to use that as an argument. Simple as that.
one of the “new required” lunches at my kids school is
one cup of yogurt
pea salad
two petite bananas
milk
REALLY
wow

I did not know that George W. Bush middle name was “William”, as the text promotes If they are going to blame the guy, at least get his name correct.

Hahahahaha! Check out the stilted grammar in that paragraph! And it’s George Walker Bush, not George William Bush. Is Team Obama outsourcing their Internet clean-up work to India? “Yes, my name Peggy.”

Wow, Arrowhead it looks like you have a whole lot of “trolls” to go after.
Guys, if you said “Who is George William Bush” Arrowhead1952 thinks it’s proof you are DU-worthy.
S/he probably thinks I'm a troll because I posted the screen grab!
