Michelle Antoinette appeared on the Tom Joyner morning radio show to promote her “Let’s Move” program. She tells Tom about what she calls a cute little trick. We call it teaching your kids to lie and to manipulate others to get what they want.
Here’s Michelle blathering on and on and on:
The PSAs (public service announcements) we launched this week provide some really cute tips for parents and they’re going to start airing on the media, 33,000 media outlets over the next few weeks and they’re going to continue for several months. They give parents some cute tips. In one ad the mom makes the kid go up and down the stairs several times looking for her purse when she knows where it is – just making her go up and down and up and down the stairs a few times before she gets the dollar she’s looking for. So we have to be creative as parents particularly in the African American communities where, you know, we don’t have sports leagues, we don’t have…it’s not safe to play outside sometimes because our neighborhoods, you know, we don’t have the kind of safety net that we need. So we have to start sharing with each other some tips because there are communities all over the country that are running into these issues. We, as parents, have to get creative.
Don’t look now, Michelle, but your commercial shows a white mom and white kid in what appears to be an upper middle class home in what we assume is an upper middle class neighborhood. In your defense, however, it does show the white upper middle class mom getting just as much enjoyment out of deceiving her child as any black mom could ever get.
We picture the following scene in the White House:
Barack: “Hey, Michelle, could you run to the Lincoln Bedroom and see if I left my wallet up there.”
Michelle: (Panting) “It’s not up here, Barry.”
Barack: “How ‘bout you run over to the Oval Office and see if I left it there.”
Michelle: (Panting even harder) I don’t see it here, either.
Barack: “Never mind. I just found it in my back pocket.”
Michelle: (Gasping for air) “Hey, you tryin’ to say my ass is fat?”
Barack: “Just sayin’…”

"Kids are spending too much time in front of TV and computer screens, not getting enough exercise and drinking too many sugary soft drinks, Hertling said. He said that makes their bones too fragile for military lifestyles."
That's Lt. General Hertling at Fort Jackson, where I drilled for Basic Training, 18 years ago.. Hard to argue with those 3 stars. And Michelle Obama was there, talking to him.. http://articles.nydailynews.com/2011-01-27/entertainment/27738064_1_military-families-first-lady-michelle-obama
Fatties are a national security issue.. I'll take that hyperbole over the other any day (Hertling must also be a commie?)
Okay so I am watching cartoons and out of a sudden this stupid ass commercial comes out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jI4F7W6Hi8&feature=related.
I do research and realize that this is ALL over Disney (and other kid/family oriented channels) aimed particularly to children and teens. So basically while your kids are watching cartoons they are also being told by Mrs. Obamie that they are fat and they need to do something about it.
It is not even like once in a blue moon, I mean if your kids are watching the channel for several hours Michelle Obama is a constant presence and I can only assume this is ongoing every day (yes I LOVE cartoons okay? and I am tired and feel sick and cartoons make me happy so anyway... :-/).
My question is the follow: Where is Mrs. Obamie getting the money for the incessant campaign?
"My question is the follow: Where is Mrs. Obamie getting the money for the incessant campaign?"
Where does she get the money for any of her stupid little campaigns? That's right, out of our pockets.
She shouldn't be getting government money for pet projects. I actually don't think ANY First Lady should ESPECIALLY in circumstances that we are goin through right now. If the First Lady wants a pet project to go the distance she needs to raise the cash herself from her friends and supporters. I am willing to believe that she may have, but I don't believe that even if she has it is the only source of cash for her propaganda machine.
My fav KQ. I had a friend of mine who owned a BBQ restaurant in Springfield, Il. He used to call his wife (with affection) BOFA. Big Old Fat Ass. That's what Moochell reminds me of, BOFA ( no affection intended!)
Yes the butt was quiet prominent on that one and her clothing did nothing for her figure.
Michelle Obummer must be a very honest person. Either that or her "Lie Your Ass Off Diet" does not work.
She's right. I'm black and I live in a majority black neighborhood in Houston. Sure there are sport teams, but most black kids (especially black girls) aren't that active. Also, playing sports doesn't equal being healthy. The players seem to be getting bigger and bigger. Obesity is a huge problem among black children and something needs to be done.
Also, I don't see how Michelle's goal to fight obesity is anything different from "Just Say No" to drugs campaign.
:/
"Also, I don’t see how Michelle’s goal to fight obesity is anything different from “Just Say No” to drugs campaign."
Yep, both completely worthless. What's your point?
Did you vote for Sheila Jackson Lee? If so, we know about where your intelligence level peaks and forgive you for your comment.
We have so many fat kids in this country because we have so many lazy kids in this country! Plain and simple! Lazy people tend to be fatter than those of us that get out and work for our living!
We have so many fat kids in this country because their mother, father, or both, are too damn lazy to cook good meals for their kids! MacDonalds or a pizza from Domino's is not a healthy meal, it should be a treat once in a while but not part of your daily diet.
We have so many fat kids in this country because their fat, lazy parents let them drink 10 sodas a day! I work in a little store in my little town and I see it every day. Fourth generation fat welfare mothers blowing their foodstamps on soda, chips, beef jerky, candy, buying everything but good food for their fat little rude, soon to be fifth generation, welfare kids.
The list goes on and on but the main point is lack of physical movement, getting out of the house to play, getting away from the office and walking, getting enough excercise while eating right. That is the problem.
Nancy Reagan did not have a drug habit when she was promoting saying no to drugs, Moochell has a fat-ass the size of Texas and apparently is OK with the Super Bowl menu her husband ordered. Do as I say, not as I do, typical progressive/socialist hypocrite. Go have another greasy cheeseburger BO with your boy Bite Me Biden.
"She’s right. I’m black and I live in a majority black neighborhood in Houston. Sure there are sport teams..."
If there are sports teams, then she's wrong. How can you call her right and then in the next sentence prove her wrong without giving yourself a headache? Maybe you take the aspirin with Kool-Aid...
Boy, she must have some dumb kids! Most kids will fall for that once. But she seems to think that this could be a weekly workout program. Kids are smarter than her. They also can spot a liar faster than Clinton could spot an intern. And once they catch you in a lie; you're history. Her typical "Do as I say; not as I do," will not go far with her daughters. They won't buy her lying bs.
Rocks are smarter than her and our fearless leader. Yuck. I just made myself gag.
Get out the barf bag. I would sure hate to have her nerve in a tooth. Where does she get off telling us that is it all right to decieve our kids because she says it is . You know, the sooner we get Frick and Frack out of the White House, the better off we will all be. And we won't be idle either. It'll take a long time to straighten up the mess that these two have made of this country.
"we don't have sports leagues" ?!? What?! Is she out of her mind?! What is wrong with her?
Wasn't Bill Clinton's Midnight Basketball program supposed to end inner city crime?
That's where Obama came from.
So Obama is now from the inner cities? You guys just can't make up your minds.
Maybe we could all get the kids to run around looking for that 5 trillion dollars that we spent on the "safety nets" since 1964, that according to Ms Antoinette, don't exist in the minority neighborhoods. Where did that money go? That should keep them running around for years.
African Americans without sports? Is she watching golf, hockey or NASCAR?
I work full time but I only have a one story house. Maybe I should move into the projects and get me some stairs.
I don't have a 60' television either so I actually take my son outside to play when I get out of work.
ok, so she suggests we pay our kids a dollar to go up and down the stairs! how much will it cost to get them to run a mile? plus, she has it backwards. Kids should be taught that: if you get more fit, you will probably have a better chance to earn a good living. in the real world no one pays you to become fit.
her entire parenting and financial mindset is backwards.
