Michelle Obama: "We don't want to hear the whining. We want you to eat it. Just eat it."

WASHINGTON — ...Obama also managed a spot-on imitation of kids whining about eating their vegetables. "I don't wanna eat it. I don't like it. It tastes bad. I don't want it," the first lady said in her best nasal whine.

Then she added: "We don't want to hear the whining. We want you to eat it. Just eat it."

After checking out the food demonstrations, Obama hiked up her belt and joined a crowd of young hula hoopers, keeping up with the best of them. She didn't do so well when it came to jumping rope, but it wasn't for lack of trying. The first lady made three unsuccessful attempts to jump into a round of double Dutch – two ropes turning in opposite directions.

The quote is directed at her daughters regarding food, but it does seem to fit their general attitude towards the American people and their policies.

Looks like Michelle has been taking her own advice! She's been eating it and no telling what else! Needs to push herself away from the table!

Just eat it?

Who knew Michelle was a Weird Al Yankovich fan??

How come you’re always such a fussy young man?
Don’t want no Captain Crunch, don’t want no Raisin Bran
Well, don’t you know that other kids are starving in Japan
So eat it, just eat it (prrr)

Don’t wanna argue, I don’t wanna debate
Don’t want to hear about what kind of food you hate ooh
You won’t get no dessert ‘till you clean off your plate
So eat it, don’t you tell me you’re full

Just eat it, eat it , eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn’t matter , it’s broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it, ooh

Your table manners are a cryin’ young shame
You’re playin’ with your food like it’s some kind of game
Now, if you starve to death, you’ll just have yourself to blame
So eat it, just eat it (prr)(burp)

You better listen, better do what you’re told ooh
You haven’t even touched your tuna casserole ooh
You better chow down or it’s gonna get cold
So eat it

I don’t care if you’re full
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Open up your mouth and feed it
Have some more yogurt, have some more spam
It doesn’t matter if it’s fresh or canned
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don’t you make me repeat it
Have a banana, have a whole bunch
It doesn’t matter what you have for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
(hoh hoh hoh hoh hoh)

Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
If it’s gettin’ cold, reheat it
Have a big dinner, have a light snack
If you don’t like it you can’t send it back
Just eat it, eat it, (woohoo) eat it, eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it (oh lord)
Have some more chicken,(woohoo) have some more pie (woohoo)
It doesn’t matter , it’s broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don’t you make me repeat it (oh no)
Have a banana,(woohoo) have a whole bunch
It doesn’t matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

“We don’t want to hear the whining. We want you to eat it. Just eat it.”

A sign of things to come?

"Then she added: "We don't want to hear the whining. We want you to eat it. Just eat it.""

It's too bad some media-savvy conservative can't take this quotation from Mrs. Obama and package it as the attitude that Obama, Reid, Pelosi, and Emmanuel have towards the American people.

Was she referring to Broccoli or the new Obamacare taxes that are headed our way?
