President to throw down with Bobby Flay
The Hill ^ | September 21 | John Feehery

Posted on 09/21/2009 1:55:38 PM PDT by PghBaldy

WASHINGTON — The Associated Press reports today that President Barack Obama will make an appearance on the Food Network show “Throwdown with Bobby Flay” and four other network shows in order to carry his message on healthcare reform to all those who need to cook more but eat less....

Besides “Throwdown,” the president will appear on “Barefoot Contessa,” “Extreme Cuisine with Jeff Corwin,” “Giada at Home” and “Rachael Ray.”

He personally decided not to go on “Paula’s Home Cooking,” because according to White House sources, the Georgia-based Paula Deen’s cooking was not healthy enough, and her demographic skewed to the same demographic as Fox News. According to one very high-ranking source, “We are going to screw her just like we screwed Fox News.”

Pres. Bush never picked and chose like this.

He considered himself (and was) a statesman. For example, we saw him almost every day meeting with foreign leaders.

Now we have this jerk pitifully trying to get his numbers up by bopping all over the airwaves.

This is clearly a satire, but I'm wondering why it isn't labeled anywhere as such. (It cannot possibly be real.)

Oh, right. He’s got time to appear everywhere, (except the one place that tells the truth - ad nauseum, to push his take-over bill - aka, health bill - and an unprecedented full hour on Letterman - and now cooking with Flay...

But he doesn’t have time to take any look at Afghanistan - or what his new ROE are doing to our troops

I think we can all see what's happening. Obama is crashing and burning on policy. There's no substance to the man so he is falling back to the "campaign" mode and putting on a media offensive. He's got nothing else going on. He's wrong on all the issues and to change policies would expose him as a fraud that he is.

Let's not fall for this BS. Let's keep pounding on serious issues. Let him go on Letterman, Food Network and the like.

What next for the guy, the Howard Stern radio show?

After reading the whole article, it appears to be satire. A little too close to the truth though. This guy is everywhere.

Will he be cooking some of his favorite foods that he ate while growing up in Indonesia? Or perhaps some Kenyan national dishes?

It’s satire.

On MTP y-day, Sen. Graham made the comment that the Pres. has appeared on everything except the Food Network... There’s a slight allusion to that in the last paragraph...

Paula Deen already had Michelle Obama on her show prior to the election. he got loads of complaints and heat. I doubt that “Food Network” wants to take a political side when it would mean upsetting over 50% of their audience! They’re kicking a## with their line up of shows. Why rock the apple cart?

I am sure this is satire, taking off on Zero's love of getting his ugly mug on the tube.

That said, I cannot stand that pompous peacock Flay anyway, so no matter...............

I really wish news sites would stop doing satire. Also I from what I have seen I think Paula is a democrat anyway. And she also already done a show with Michelle Obama as a guest.

He surely does have time for some odd-ball things. I’ve seen him at the NBA All Star game, MLB baseball games, the NASCAR show on ESPN, and now this? Wow, I’m sure glad we don’t have any major issues or crises going on these days.

LOVE Paula Deen by the way.

I agree.
“He didn’t have too much else on his calendar, and this hits all the right demographics for us. The fact of the matter is that the president is a very talented chef in his own right … he makes a mean arugula risotto … and since we need to get our message everywhere, we decided to make some time in his schedule.”

This reads as pure satire.

On the other hand, Michelle will be on the cover of the new Children’s Health mag and she will also have a article in the October Women’s Health while her husband will be on the cover of the October Menes Health (again).

Obama is looking like a aircraft going down in flames.

He could have gotten out of this gracefully at some point, but he refused to accept reality with some grace.

The Democrats won’t want to die on his saber with him, and are going to abandon this dunce en mass.
