A moment on the lips . . .
If one is trying to be the icon of nutritional dietary advice for kids one doesn’t eat a rack of braised short ribs, whether the calorie content be 1,500 or 600.
But that’s what First Lady Michelle Obama did on another one of her extravagant vacations – this time to Vail Colo.
Rush Limbaugh took her to task for the alleged 141 grams of fat he estimated she ate – but look who’s calling the kettle black.
Pardon the pun in advance of my critics possible allegations of racism.
You see it’s the hypocrisy that get’s to me when one expects our kids to follow the rules when the dietary nutrition icon falls off the wagon.
I wonder if the O’s kids’ had a rack of ribs each?
I guess hypocrisy runs in the family, President Obama says he doesn’t believe in wealth redistribution, but his policies belie his statement. Take the stimulus program that was suppose to produce jobs – jobs we’re still looking for. And then there’s health care for all, but there’s no sign of wealth redistribution here?
I don’t know about you, but when I go out with someone that looks like Rush Limbaugh and he orders a rack of ribs with all of its calories, I don’t expect him to tell me do as I say not as I do, as the grease dribbles from his lips.
Many from the left attacked Rush for his attack on Michelle.
Dana Milbank of the Washington Post said, “In Limbaugh’s case politics is like a fad diet. He crows when the facts are supporting his beliefs (or when he’s losing weight), and, when he’s yo-yoing back to obesity, he talks about something else. In politics as in weight loss fad dieting rarely works.”
Nor does wealth redistribution in the form of a stimulus produce jobs.
What is this all about? Hypocrisy!
When you set out to be an anti obesity icon, you should live up to the image and remember, ” A moment on the lips, a life time on the hips!”

I’ve missed so much amusement these past couple of months by not scanning your web sight but on my way home soon, after a current stop in this very strange state of Florida.
Who would accuse Limbaugh of hypocrisy when it comes to food since his pleasure of choice is drugs?
You mean people would actually accuse you of racism? How unreasonable.
Welcome back! We missed you. Glad, you had the pleasure of spending some time in the land of dangling chads. However, Florida has a long way to go in the arena of politics compared to Chicago, especially now that Rahm Emanuel is Mayor.
