Yes, but expensive food.

They are such ugly, vile people. Nothing surprises me now.

The truth is that this garden didn’t SUDDENLY start dying the moment the government shutdown occurred. Michelle got her photo ops and press releases out of it, and then she wanted nothing to do with it any more.

So... it has been going to rot for six months. Now Michelle doesn’t have to answer any questions about the garden. Nor do the Obama’s have to answer any more questions about what goes on in the White House. The public is not allowed.

The parks and monuments will remain shut down, even if the ‘shutdown’ is over.

Sooner or later, the American public will wake up. It may be too late, but soon they will realize ‘this land is not your land’ anymore.

Why don’t they all, the First Family, the Bidens who spent the weekend at Camp David, get out their with garden equipment and fix the darn garden! Is everything else going to heck also?

Not fair to the Cuban people, you are right.

Good thing I’m not drinking while I read. I only have a borrowed netbook now.

No shame and apparently no reverence for the People’s House. It’s just a pit stop to the mansion in Hawaii.

Obama has someone else in mind.

If it’s HER garden, why doesn’t SHE take care of it? She needs a team of gardeners? These have to be the most expensive vegetables in the country. Does she only go out there when the cameras are around? Another phony obama story. These people are the bottom of the barrel.

Actually, it’s OUR garden, just like all the closed parks and memorials WE aren’t allowed to go to since THEY won’t let US.

Things are really backward here.

I can’t wait until those posers/loafers are out of OUR White House.

I don’t know. But my Senator McShamnesty did say no Americans would pic lettuce for 50 bucks and hour.

I’ll go garden at the White House. They have people, Americans volunteering to work, and they spit on the offers.

OMG.

White House gardeners are allowed only to water the plots and cannot harvest the vegetables. White House staff who normally volunteer to pick the weeds are off on furlough, Gehman Kohan said. "Pounds and pounds of ripe organic bounty have gone to waste," she wrote.

Gee whiz, so what has Mooch taught those poor, dear, urban yutes? That unless you got some field hands (on camera) to do the real work, it all mean nothing?

Disgusting, attention-whore filth populate the people's White House.

I thought it was the wookie’s garden, doesn’t she tend it herself?

You are right. One of the first things I thought of was the men and women serving overseas, whom had one of their hot meals/snacks taken away, by the Agitator-in-Chief, and would love some fresh tomatoes.

I’ll bet those kids would like some fresh tomatoes. How absolutely vile to waste that food. Plenty of groups, like Second Harvest, would have come and picked it for charity.

Why not? It’s on us. The sky is the limit and nothing is out of bounds for our grifter family.
