First Lady Michelle Obama received a warm welcome from the students and teachers at an elementary school Wednesday where she promoted new tougher nutrition standards for school meals.

The students clapped and cheered as Mrs. Obama entered the cafeteria at Parklawn Elementary School in Alexandria, Va.

The first lady, who was was joined by celebrity chef Rachael Ray and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, picked up food from the lunch line before sitting with the kids and teachers.

Obama and Vilsack unveiled the updated nutrition standards for school meals required by the 2010 school nutrition bill.

Check out this quote from Hussein's wife, who apparently doesn't have a clue about what constitutes a "right":

"When we send our kids to school, we have a right to expect that they won’t be eating the kind of fatty, salty, sugary foods that we're trying to keep from them when they're at home. We have a right to expect that the food they get at school is the same kind of food that we want to serve at our own kitchen tables," said Mrs. Obama in remarks at the school.

I don't think this is an example of her not knowing how to eat a taco.

It looks more like she's hurling into a napkin.

I doubt if Michelle could cook her way out of a paper bag.

If you count the adipose between his ears, Vil(e)sack makes it a trio.

Hey This is a Great Idea. Kids should avoid red meat. It will drive down the price thereby making it more affordable for me. Oh yes the law of unintended consequences. I LOVE IT.

So if, as a parent, you object to the food served at your child’s school, perhaps you could make a lunch for your child. Just a suggestion.

She doesn't know how to munch on a taco. Not like Hillary.

Besides, Barack Hussein Obama said that TAMALES(note the proper pronunciation) are Michelle's favorite food. "You don't want to get between Michelle and a tamale."

It's okay though, she keeps movin'. Never puts on a pound of fat...

Isn't this the problem she's trying to fix?

Turkey Tacos, yick.

Also, Rachel Ray goes on my "Do not Watch" list, now. I'll mention it to my (conservative) father, he watches her show because he thinks she's cute.

She reached her natural limit long ago.

I'm more concerned with the additional wheat this adds to their diet.
