WASHINGTON, D.C. – First Lady Michelle Obama took to the airwaves Friday in a Channel One interview beamed into thousands of school classrooms to an estimated 5 million students across America.
The-First-Lady-on-Lunch-262x175The Hill reports:
First lady Michelle Obama said it was “natural” that kids are “grumbling” over new requirements for schools to fill vending machines and lunch lines with healthier food, but that it would not deter her from improving child nutrition.
According to a transcript provided on the Channel One website, Obama said, “I know kids are grumbling because they have to make changes. Trust me, my kids roll their eyes at me every time I tell them ‘you know you don’t have to finish your diner, but you have to finish your vegetables.’ But I know that I’m doing it because I’m giving my kids the best that I know I can give them.”
The First Lady made it clear she’s not backing down: “Don’t be mad because there are changes. Figure out why the changes are important, and then find out how you make it work for you.”
You know, my kids like broccoli, celery, carrots – those kind of vegetables that have a little flavor, sweetness to it. And I would encourage kids to go over to those salad bars and just try a mixture of things, because sometimes if you mix a bunch of things up and you chop it up, the whole combination sounds pretty good.
The interview didn’t offer any push back the overhaul to the National School Lunch Program on behalf of students.

Moochelle: The face of NannyStatism.
And if that doesn't supress your appetite I don't know what will.
God only knows how many chefs must hate her..
I mean who elected her?

“I mean who elected her?”
51% of the population in 2016
Twice elected.. Say CHEESE!
American politics is in need of a good enema.
She knows better. She is the state. She can do anything she wants just like her bastard husband. So what if it’s not in the constitution. Neither are most Federal agencies.
And slowly, slowly, a once free and proud people are brought beneath the yolk of a tyranny.
I’m not on the list, but I just wanted to give you the heads-up: If you’re going to mention Michelle Obama, I never want to be on your list.
;-)
She can raise her own damned kids, and leave ours alone.
I didn’t vote for a nanny or for her worthless husband.
