For ****'s sake. It's virtually obligatory for the first lady to take on a cause. Nancy Reagan gave us "Just Say No", Laura Bush had the whole encouraging children to read thing, and Michelle Obama has taken on childhood obesity, which is a huge ******* problem. For the people that actually follow the numbers, like me, we know that diabetes is going to be the number one pathology in Americans very soon and the rate of childhood obesity has skyrocketed because kids are eating unhealthy foods. Couple that with the fact that diabetes is 100% preventable by early lifestyle change and that when a person is officially diagnosed with diabetes it is immediately only a problem that can be managed and not cured. Also, the statistics show that people who become diabetic started showing glucose intolerance 12 years prior to diagnosis. This is a preventable disease and it's going to cause the cost of healthcare to balloon.
Why you guys would ******* ***** about someone trying to use their time for a good cause (whether it's getting kids to read or to eat more healthy) is beyond me. So I am left to conclude that it's only to be a bunch of ******* assholes who will just oppose anything that the Obama's do. I don't recall the left bitching about Laura Bush's reading initiative. Why? Because it's makes sense. You automatically impeach yourselves on the issue of being a rational responder when you guys harp on this issue.
Not so ironically, the one first lady who tried to weld some real power on a policy issue (Hillary Clinton and Healthcare) caused the right to go bat-shit crazy too.
Michelle Obama isn't the problem here. You are the problem.
