Group to WH: No more pics with junk food

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a non-profit group long affiliated with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is asking the White House to file an “executive order banning staged photo opportunities that show the president, the first family, the vice president, and members of the president’s cabinet eating unhealthy foods—including processed meats—that can cause cancer and obesity,” it said in a press release.

PCRM frequently emerges with public complaints about non-vegetarian food in schools, hospitals, airports and spots arenas. The group recently made a splash with billboards claiming hot dogs cause — in its words — “butt cancer.”

Another story that I found that comes from sources I do not endorse, PETA and the PCRM. If Barry, Joe, or anyone else wants to eat a cheese burger or a hot dog I say it's their own business.

That being said, how much credibility do these photo ops lend to Michelle's nutrition campaign? Is Michelle only targeting children and fat people?

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

The Obama's are only targeting their leftist buddies and reelection. They are the phoniest bunch of politicians to come down the pike in a long time... and that's not easy to accomplish considering politicians in general.
