‘You’re Setting Me Back’: Michelle Obama Ribs Gabby Douglas for Eating Fast Food

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Michelle Obama is teasing Olympic champion Gabby Douglas about eating fast food to celebrate her achievements.
The first lady, an advocate of healthy eating, and Douglas taped an appearance together Monday for NBC’s “Tonight Show” with Jay Leno.
When Douglas was asked how she marked her stellar Olympic showing, the 16-year-old gymnast said she “splurged” on a McDonalds’ sandwich.
Mrs. Obama responded, “You’re setting me back, Gabby,“ which drew a ”Sorry!” from the athlete.
According to a partial NBC transcript, Mrs. Obama also used her “Tonight” appearance to praise her husband’s healthcare overhaul law.
During the just-ended London Olympics, Douglas became the third straight U.S. athlete and first African-American to win the all-around title. She and her teammates gave the U.S. its first Olympic title in women’s gymnastics since 1996.

Posted on August 14, 2012 at 4:09pmHey Micheal….get off your fat a$$ and win a gold medal and then you can open that big pie hole of yours…..this is a clear example that socialism is for the people not the socialist. Most people don’t have a WH Chef making breakfast for them and a cheap egg McMuffin is the best they can get you stupid cow.

Posted on August 13, 2012 at 11:24pmI have an informant that told me Michelle and Obama have a safe room loaded with cigarettes and and junk food. I cannot offer any evidence to back it up and I am not sure it’s true. I will not expand on my sources. “I don’t think the burden should be on me,” “The burden should be on them.”

Posted on August 14, 2012 at 4:42pmQueen Michelle was confused……Hadn’t she made a decree that all the people in the kingdom must only eat healthy foods approved by the king and the queen. How dare this young peasant girl celebrate eating at a fast food place!

Posted on August 14, 2012 at 3:23amThe word “class” simply does not belong in the same sentence with Moochelle Antoinette. She would not know “class” if it rose up and bit her on her ample a$$, just as no matter HOW much she spends on those stupendously UGLY clothes she buys, she ain’t gonna look good, because in addition to being woefully short of CLASS, she does not have much TASTE, either! At least while she was in London THIS time, we did not have to be embarrassed by pictures of her bear-hugging the queen.
The White House has protocol people to school them on how to behave around foreign dignitaries, but I imagine that Moochelle, like the Great Eared One, is way too arrogant to listen to any of them, much less heed their advice.

Posted on August 13, 2012 at 10:48pmMaybe Gabby should have told Moochelle to kiss her Quarter Pounder, but then she might not have enough sandwich left before the show. I’d bet Moochele has a stash of Twinkies, Ho Ho’s, Zingers, and doughnuts hidden somewhere in the White House.

Posted on August 13, 2012 at 9:42pmI‘m sure Gabby’s training regimine includes a very healthy diet. A “splurge” from time to time does not hurt anything. The key is moderation. Obama said Michelle would not let him eat a deep fried twinkie when he visits the Iowa State fair. How silly.

Did anyone read that article earlier this year that back when Barry first ran for office & lost (back in the Chicago days), Michelle was drawing up divorce papers. Apparently she didn’t want to hang with a loser. I wonder if they will get divorced in Jan once they have to vacate the White House.
