Obama's new health craze: Baseball fans should eat kale; rarely hot dogs

President Obama used the 2012 World Series-winning San Francisco Giants as his backdrop late Monday to call on baseball fans to eat vegan at games and for stadiums to offer kale, eggplant and strawberries.

...., calling it something "close to first lady Michelle Obama's heart — encouraging healthy eating."

But Obama isn't demanding an all-vegan diet at the park. "Even Michelle would say it's okay to have a hotdog once in awhile, though. I don't want everybody to get carried away and think they have to have kale every time they go to the ballpark."

These people truly are idiots.

[The_Victor]

uhhhhhhh,

....no.

[mothball]

Can you imagine a R president saying these things? The media would be on him like flies on a rib roast.

[BlueStateRightist]

FUBO

[wrencher]

Anything to distract from the real issues.

[D Rider]

I go to Tropicana Stadium for a game and the Bar-B-Que in center field...and a few beers.

[Lakeshark]

I can see the guy walking the sections with his box of food hawking his stuff:

"Eggplant here! Eggplant here!"

Yeah, that'll work........

[Iron Munro]

[xzins]

That is an absolutely awesome poster/flyer!

[onedoug]

Eff you, barry.

Stay away from baseball.

[ronniesgal]

I don’t want to be anywhere near michelle after she’s inhaled some kale.
Or anytime, actually

[P-Marlowe]

The day the government tells me where to live is the day I literally take up arms.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Also fans should wear mom jeans and throw like a girl.

[xzins]

Can you spell “Gulag”?

[no-to-illegals]

Must wonder ... Is kale about to become the staple of a Military Person's Diet? Is this zer0’s plan thus this trial balloon?

[MrB]

Actually, that doesn’t work all that well...
the physics are all wrong. Smacking it on the bottom actually causes the contents to go UP the bottle.

The best way to do it is a downward motion, striking the “shoulder” of the bottle on your palm.

What a great way to turn off groups of hundreds of thousands of people in regions across this nation.

This guy has got to be thinking along the lines of causing an open rebellion so he can declare martial law and govern indeffinately.

After reading about the regional plans on the drawing board to hustle money out of the suburbs to pay for inner city needs, I think this guy is gunning for a showdown.

...this is a general all purpose message, and should not be seen as targeting any individual I am respondi  ng to...

But then I’d have to drink that much more beer to make up
for the lost hot dog calories.

[MrB]

I always look out for certain words and call my kids on them.

Words like “should”...

“Should” implies a standard. What is this standard, who defined it, and where can I go to look it up?

[DUMBGRUNT]

I enjoy kale and spinach too!

When was the last time our Dear Leader was seen consuming kale or spinach?

Not the usual BS claims but high res video and a minimum of three witness. Nothing less.
