Huckabee said. “She’s stating the obvious, that we do have an obesity problem in this country.”

Mike Huckabee gets on Sarah Palin's case for mocking Michelle Obama's crusade to involve the federal government to fight childhood obesity
(said Huckabee) “Michelle Obama's not trying to tell people what to eat or not trying to force the government's desires on people,” Huckabee said. “She’s stating the obvious, that we do have an obesity problem in this country.” See the entire article at Politico
Yeah, this is why anyone with the name Huckabee shouldn't be elected president.
Remember when "Just Say No" had the force of law behind it? The Obama family is not merely "stating" anything. They are "telling" people what to do about it. I would say that Huckabee would be smart enough to know the difference, but his name is Huckabee.
How is the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act NOT an imposition of "the government's desires on people?" It's now law! I think the flashy lights of his Fox News studio are making Mikey a little blind to what is really obvious.
I know this is an issue near and dear to his heart, but if personal baggage were made good law then toilet seats would be narrower than the human head, 10 year-old bed-wetters will be eligible for a presidential medal of honor, and stolen milk money will be made taxable income when I'm in charge of this joint.
How about this? If anyone can tell me which federal law did Huckabee used to guide him in dropping his 100 pounds I'll back off the issue, and because I'm a nice guy I wont make beeping sounds while I do it.
All Palin is doing is playing a little gander to Michelle's goose by employing Obama's BFF Saul Alinsky's fifth rule:
This kind of nonsense needs to be ridiculed until election day, when it can be defeated.
"Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage."
Ridicule, eh? Such as the level of RIDICULE the left and their tools have heaped upon Sarah Palin?
Huckabee said. “She’s stating the obvious, that we do have an obesity problem in this country.”
Lets see... we have a fat gomer trying to tell a svelte athletic attractive woman that he and a huge butted control freak knows more about whats good for kids..
makes sense to me
During the years I spent working in political Washington, I met a fair number of people like Huck.
It’s nearly impossible for them to believe that people don’t love them as much as they think they should be loved.
The longer it goes on, the worse it gets for them but they can’t stop themselves.
It’s the kind of thing that even an otherwise OK person like the Huck can fall victim to. That NEED for the adulation of the masses.... They’d be better off getting hooked on smack.
I think thats not up for debate, the number of fat people in the country is too high. I also think the federal government shouldn’t be playing the role of surrogate parents like the Obama’s apparently believe.
Indeed. And the last I saw, none of the Palin kids are fat slobs like the Huckleberries.
This BS defies description. Maybe we should submit it for arbitration to our 230 pound hippo Surgeon General.
If I flew (I don’t any longer, or go to the movies) I would fly with either Governor Hucklebee or the First Lady.
If a window cracked and blew out, either could plug the hole with just one of their massive posteriors.
Huckabee is a slimeball and a backstabbing phony. I wish he would just shut up and go away.

Another loser like McPain that needs to dry up and blow away.
Doh!
What’s interesting to me is you can see how busy the Palins are and besides that they get, from what I can tell, a more healthy diet with the grass fed meat, all the fish, etc.
If kids are busy and stay away from a few things like pop and chips we wouldn’t have such a huge problem.
Huckleberry is McWeasel with a smile..
One question:
If you were lost in Alaska or somewhere else...who would you rather be with...Michele, Huckadoodle or Sarah Palin. I know who I would choose...the one that could lead me to safety and that AINT michele or huckadoodle no way.
Everything in sensible amounts. Is michele and her family going to Hawaii to eat nothing but vegetables and no sweets or ice cream cones????????????? Yeah right....
Actually, she is trying to tell people what to eat or not eat, and she is trying to expand government and force her elitist desires on the Nation.
The dog’s smiling because it hasn’t been eaten...yet.
Oh really? Since when did we consider stories that ran TODAY (check the time stamp on the Politico article I reference) to be old?
If it bores you then find a thread that doesn’t :-)
