She and her husband are out-of-touch community pot stirrers who have no idea how stupid they look and act.

Only mentally deranged Democrats (I repeat myself) still like these low-rent crooks from Chitown.

Her Royal Lardass is telling us that we need to lose weight . . . love it . . . She’s got a back porch on her bigger than my granny’s house. Just incredible what the libbies don’t see about themselves when someone with a definite weight problem starts preaching to us . . .

. . . because, after all, liquor is just a gateway drug to Doritos, Twinkies, and corn dogs for America’s children.

She talks about cleansing her palate by only eating fruits and veggies for a week. Her campaign is called “let’s move.” I think this woman has a fixation on the bowel.

For once I agree with her. One stop shopping for cocktail garnishes would be nice — celery sticks for Bloody Mary’s, olives and cocktail onions for martinis, limes for margaritas, etc. Good idea FLOTUS!
