'We want you to eat it. Just eat it!'
The American Thinker ^ | October 26, 2009 | Jeannie DeAngelis

Posted on 10/26/2009 4:20:38 AM PDT by Scanian

The word "fair" conjures up images of merry-go-rounds, fluffy, pink cones of spun sugar, candy apples and popcorn. Not if you are invited to the White House. Excited Washington DC school children, disembarking from yellow school buses on the South Lawn of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue were in for a big shock! The Obamas' idea of a kid's fair included sermons extolling the benefits of replacing cake and French fries with vegetables.

Imagine finding out you have the afternoon off and are going to the White House for a "fair." When you get there you realize the festivities include Michelle doing a hula-hoop demonstration followed by lectures about the advantages of eating foods you hate?

Could this be how America feels a year into the Obama administration? We got off the hope and change bus expecting a party and instead we find ourselves at a work camp where the lecturer drones on and on force-feeding America an unending list of mandatory directives.

Does the federal Government have the power to order Americans to buy broccoli or face a fine?

Well, if not broccoli, how about insurance?

Barrack Obama sings “What a Wonderful World” (Apologies to Louis Armstrong)

I see an America,
that’s finally “green”.
No cars on the road,
except for my limousine.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I eat Wagyu beef
amid people of fashion.
As you wait in line
for your weekly bread ration.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I see a nuclear Iran
free to do as they choose.
They can generate power,
or wipe out the Jews.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I know my health plan’s the worst
that all of you’ve ever seen.
But it’ll pay for itself
once we start to sell Soylent Green.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

Wise people of color finally running the show.
Who knows just how far our country will go?
I’m a worthy successor to men who’ve governed so well.
Like Robert Mugabe—and Presidente Fidel.

I see the Constitution
wadded up and tossed.
It’s no longer valid-
‘cause I won and you lost.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I see crackers working
to redress past wrongs.
My new “No Melanin” tax
will keep revenue strong.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I see reparations paid
It’ll square things, no doubt.
At least up until
the money runs out.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I see re-education camps
for uppity white folks.
Those who thought the wrong thoughts,
or told the wrong jokes.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

I see mobs raid your houses,
“liberating” what’s “theirs”
You think that’s unjust?
Call someone who cares.
And I say to myself “What a wonderful world!”

Wise people of color finally evening the score.
The “new math” is simple-you get less, we get more.
But we need your hard work so we can keep living large.
Your good times are over-now Obama’s in charge!

You see my evil intentions
along with my blundering.
Why’d you vote for me?
You’ve got to be wondering.

I bet you don’t say to yourself
“What a wonderful world”

No-I bet you ain’t saying to yourself
“What a wonderful world”

It doesn’t matter if it’s boiled or fried, just eat it!

All this from a man who still smokes cigarettes.

Coming to a vending machine near you. You go to the snack machine expecting to get your daily dose of something that might not necessarily be good for you. The Food Fascists will fix that problem for you. Push the button for a Snickers and out comes an artichoke. Press the button for a Gardetto’s and down comes a box of prunes. Yes folks, the future will be great when you’re forced to eat the “right” foods. (smirk)

Artichoke good*. Prune bad.

*Must have dipping butter and mayo.

Yes, and if insurance, why not broccoli? Or even Brussels Sprouts, maybe as a penalty for not buying out share of the Brussels Sprouts.

And don’t forget the Zero’s favorite, Arugula.

I don’t think it’s so much the Kenyan Administration telling us to “just eat it” as they’re telling liberty-loving Americans to ESAD.

Like the philosopher Bobby Knight once said....if your getting raped just lie back and enjoy it.
