Sarah Palin Jabs Michelle Obama's Anti-Obesity Campaign With S'mores
Sarah Palin took a shot at Michelle Obama during Sunday's episode of her reality TV show, "Sarah Palin's Alaska," jabbing the first lady's anti-obesity campaign for attempting to deprive Americans of dessert.

While searching for s'mores ingredients on a family camping trip, Palin remarked:

"Where are the s'mores ingredients? This is in honor of Michelle Obama, who said the other day we should not have dessert."

Michelle Obama has been a key proponent of an initiative to improve children's health by encouraging better diets and sufficient exercise. In May she announced her "Let's Move" program, which promoted dessert alternatives, among other dietary suggestions.

4. Ok I prescribe the obesity diet to the Rs
maybe they will find their rapture in diabetic comas.
The rest of us will stop eating the crap the R sponsored fake food corporations sell as 'food' and outlive them all.
Maybe we can have some social justice then..

29. I don't know if it has anything to do with it
Edited on Mon Dec-20-10 03:35 PM by HillbillyBob
but raw latex/rubber is white prior to processing.

It may have something to do with the advertising image of white as clean and proper and all that baloney.

35. I looked it up...
The Michelin Man is white because when tires were first introduced, they were also white. Carbon black wasn't added until later.

5. Might explain why her chunky talentless offspring didn't lose weight during DWTS...
...I promised myself I wouldn't respond to threads about this vapid moran, but when this useless sack of stupid attacks a woman that is so far superior to her in very single facet, i cannot help myself...

Listen up b*tch...Michele Obama is everything you are not. You're class range is more in tune with the Snooki's of the world, m'kay?

11. S'mores is not a fruit?
Grown in the same orchard as Twinkies.

Damn right it's a fruit, and healthy too.

36. And who asks for the s'more "ingredients"?
Someone on another site commented on that. Pretty funny. Imagine Palin in the kitchen:

"honey, where are the s'more ingredients? Okay, graham crackers, check. Marshmallows, check, chocolate, check."

Does she ask for ingredients for hot dogs too?

:rofl:

23. Yes, she is.
I've watched several episodes.

She is absolutely obsessed with the Obamas and her treatment from the lamestream media.

Sarah, how many times do we need to be reminded that you can see Russia? I've watched 4 episodes and she references it at least once a show. Last night, her brother keeps Kate's(plus 8) children occupied by making a map of Alaska out of creek-bed rocks. Sarah, seizing the moment, jumps on a portion of the rock-map and asks the children, "do you know what you can see if you are right here? That's right, Russia". This was the day after her family took their "annual" trail walking trip to the top of some hill. Upon reaching the top, you guessed it...she claims you can see Russia.

She's so full of crap and a liar that it just boggles the mind. Here's a few things we learn about the real Sarah.

A hunter? Ah...not so much. She doesn't even carry a gun. Her dad and their friend carries the gun while she hikes. Her father reaches over...loads and re-cocks her gun for her after each miss of attempt to kill the Caribou.
She has to go by a gun because Kate is going to come over and go camping with them. She goes to the gun store to buy a gun so she can protect Kate from bears.

A camper? Ah...not so much. Any camper worth a grain of salt knows that you camp prepared. They don't/didn't even own any real camping equipment. All they had was a tent and some coolers. If the weather is adverse, first things first, you gather large amounts of wood and make sure it stays dry for the fire. This family made a piddly fire and decided to gather more wood only when the fire was almost out...going so far as to drag wet limbs with the needles still green and plop them on the fire and then wonder why they couldn't stay warm. Chairs? No. Collapsible table? No. Any person who has even camped a few times would call bullshit on that charade.

A mother grizzly? Ah...not so much. 15yr old Willow announces that her 18yr old boyfriend is on his way to camp with them. Sarah, at first, tries to be a mama grizzly and object...Willow gets her way. This is about the 4th time Willow gets her way. It's pretty evident that Willow always gets her way. Piper is given homework. She's suppose to solve some math problems using longhand...no computer. Sarah sees her using her phone and asks if there's a computer on the phone. Piper lies and says no. She continues doing the homework via the computer on her phone. Sarah, after seeing the computer, simply allows her to continue. During the outtake, Sarah explains that her and Todd pretty much give their children free reign to make their own mistakes. She then chimes in that, unfortunately, her kids mistakes get reported by the National Enquirer.

All in all, it is EVIDENT, that Levi was totally being truthful when telling the sorted details of the Palin family. Sarah Palin is a liar and a fake.

More people should watch that show...it's really unbelievable but gives great insight into the woman. She's a fraud.

17. Let's encourage all Republicans to follow Sarah's example
If they're true patriots, they should eat smores all day long until they're walking tubs of lard.

And then we can deny them health care.

26. They should settle this by wrestling in a kiddie pool filled with marshmallow fluff.

If Palin wins Michelle Obama gives up the childhood obesity campaign. No more nanny state "recommendations" on what kids should eat.

If Michelle Obama wins, the Palin family gives up desert... in perpetuity. No Palin including all present and future generations will ever enjoy cakes, pies, ice cream, candy, fruit, or any sweet morsel even so much as a spoonful of sugar on their oatmeal.

32. I'd like her to see the little kids in elementary schools in south Texas.
A majority are overweight and are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes and they are less than 11 years old. It is a combination of poor diet and insufficient exercise. These kids need some serious adjustments in diet, including putting away the desserts except for special occasions.

40. No different than DUers jabbing their fellow DUers who are vegetarians or DUers who advocate
reducing meat consumption with comments such as, "Hmmm, I'm eating a 16 oz steak right now."

42. Or...
Vegans who feel they are superior cause they can make a vegetable taste like turkey. All from one's perspective.

To each their own...viva la difference.

43. I suppose that Palin was reacting to Michelle's feelings of superiority.
By the way, Buddhists have been making faux meat dishes for centuries. They are the masters of meat imitation.
