ABC News’ Brian Hartman Reports: President Obama’s latest shovel-ready project is close to home — in fact, right in his own yard. In an effort to promote healthy eating, the first family will be planting a vegetable garden right on the White House grounds.

Wow, I guess if you can't do the job of President you can just grow a garden! Neither one of these communist will turn one spade full of dirt unless a camera and 20 reporters are present to record it, otherwise those school children will be working their tails off for nothing.
