CNSNews.com) – At a ceremony at the White House on Tuesday, First Lady Michelle Obama announced the launch of the ‘Let’s Move’ campaign to end childhood obesity in the United States, an epidemic she said is costly and a threat to national security.

“A recent study put the health care cost of obesity-related diseases at $147 billion a year,” Mrs. Obama said. “This epidemic also impacts the nation’s security, as obesity is now one of the most common disqualifiers for military service.”

She is welcome to move her fat ass out of the White House.

That’s a program I could get behind.

When that large sack of feces loses 75 lbs, maybe I will listen. Notice I said “maybe”.
I doubt anything “Sasquatche” has to offer will resonate in my household.
Even my 10 year old Grand-Daughter calls her “Sasquatche” now. LOL

Yup, you got it. The area of ground this woman covers at any one time must cover sereval acres with the fat ass she’s got. You could knock her down and build a 40-story building on the site where she stood.

True every time the administration is being asked about terrorism and national security they hold up the detour sign.

amazing she takes this on.

first it is about time she decided to champion a cause and this should have been done months ago.
secondly who the hell is this fat arse telling about being overweight.

She actually has the nerve to pick this topic when her fat arse is bigger than most women and is probably the biggest arse the white house has seen for a first lady.

nothing up stairs for her but she sure makes up for it on the mid level, flat as a pancake and an arse like an elephants arse.

Yea like I need the Govt to tell me what my kids should eat or do.
for the record all my kids in middle and elementary school are all athletic, they eat no junk food except birthday parties they go to.
I feed them what I want when I want when I say I certainly don’t need a fat arse telling me what to feed my kids.

Now she makes a few more jobs from the fed Govt.

Maybe she needs to go to certain areas in this country and see what the welfare layabouts are spending the money given to them on.
here’s a thought for her, go to these certain places in America and ban welfare layabouts from getting junk food with food stamps, nah course not because she knows she will lose a big voting block.

Make these welfare layabouts spend my tax money through the way of food stamps on veggies and other healthy food.

I’ll believe that when I see it same as her going out and actually working for a week.

they’re ripping her to shreds, LOL

I like the post where someone says, noticed my kids were getting fat and then I thought what will the Govt do for them

for the record it is about time fat arse got a cause but to use tax money , and say this is national security is just pure B/S.

she’s the one who needs to lose the weight and like I said to another poster maybe she should tell these welfare layabout food stamp mothers to stop getting junk food with our tax money infact ban them form getting any junk food and you watch her popularity in the hood will go down

I saw that one too, funny stuff.

IMO, this is nothing but to further groom the serfs for the Government takeover of health care, it's been going on for a while.

If they ever get this past they'll have a reason to control everything you do in life....after all anything you do can adversely affect health care costs...what you eat, drink or kind of car you drive, what kind of bath tub you have etc., not to mention the regulatory powers it will give them over business's.

Like mojitojoe's tag line says "medicine is the keystone in the arch of socialism"
