Rush Limbaugh thinks Michelle Obama is a big, fat idiot.
The broadcaster announced during his show Monday that the first lady "took the kids out to Vail on a ski vacation, and they were spotted eating, and they were feasting on ribs - ribs that were 1,575 calories per serving with 141 grams of fat."
Actually, the restaurant put the calorie count at 600, but Rush was determined to chew out Obama. "The problem is - and dare I say this? - it doesn't look like Michelle Obama follows her own nutritionary, dietary advice," he said. "I'm trying to say that our first lady does not project the image of women that you might see on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue."
Limbaugh is in an excellent position to make this observation, being perhaps the finest example of the male form since Michelangelo sculpted David. In 2009, he went on a fad diet, full of controversial supplements but little exercise, and lost 90 pounds. Such crash diets are dangerous - and, sure enough, Limbaugh wound up in the hospital at the end of the year with chest pains. Judging from recent video footage, he has regained most of the bulk.

“MOOCHelle is an America-hating, American-hating, Freedom-hating, Constitution-hating, self-entitled, arrogant, equal-opportunity, condescending bigot.”
Good one, Graybeard!
More like 600 calories per mouthfull.
No one said they were high on the nutrition scale. But for Obama to take in the calories and fat grams that Rush claimed she'd need to eat half the pig.
“Vitriol”, thy name is

“There aren’t that many calories or that much fat in a full rack of baby back ribs. I think Rush’s accuracy rating to a hit on this one.”
Rush did not make up those numbers, those are the calories and fat that had been reported in the Vail newspaper I believe.

Thanks, I just noticed that, too, before reading your post.
The left wing freaks are so easy to spot here.
How long before we’re made to sew crosses on our clothes to differentiate us from the overlords?
Dana, you ignorant turd.
Rush is attacking her HYPOCRISY, not her waistline.
and 141 grams of fat, too. That's more than a whole stick of butter.
According to this: Limbaugh Claims His Michelle Obama Remarks Werent Below The Belt Given Where She Wears Her Belt
That stands as my nominee for "Quote of the Day" given the way it is truthful, thought provoking, and irritates the h*ll out of Libtards.
Not this one. Link
That’s true. It isn’t the ribs but the sauce that is on the ribs that could bring up the calories.
Would you like some cheese with your whine, Dana? What Rush said was far worse than vitriol; it was fun, light hearted, ridicule. Michelle is too naive for vitriol. All one can do is laugh at her.
0mama, a wide load sans flags.
Holy hair shirt! Just went over to this website:http://www.myfitnesspal.com/nutrition-facts-calories/baby-back-ribs and had my eyes opened.
The calories, sugar and the salt is amazing. Knew there was a reason I like mine better than most ribs served in restaurants. In fact, all this talk is making me hungry. Think I will head over to butcher market and put a rack of baby backs on the Egg for supper.
With all the crap going on in the world, THIS is what Dana Milbank has to opine about? Sheesh...
So do I. So does my wife. So do my neighbors. So do our friends.
No. Half a rack, Mac’n cheese or potato salad, corn bread or Texas Toast, a Coke would put you into or over Rush’s numbers. Throw in a desert and those numbers are in the rear view mirror.
I disagree. The “first lady” has criticized my country openly for years, and now decides she knows best what I should eat. She has also openly stated that parents can’t be trusted to decide what their children should eat. She needs to be slapped down, constantly and without mercy, until she shuts up and goes away.
There are exactly that many calories and grams of fat in a Ruby Tuesday Memphis Ribs Full Rack.
