NEW ORLEANS (AP) - First lady Michelle Obama led toddlers at a New Orleans daycare center in calisthenics and read them a book about a mouse that eats green peas, bidding to get America's children eating better and exercising more.

Obama stretched, jumped and marched in place before reading to the children who gathered in a classroom with their parents and teachers at the Royal Castle Child Development Center. The center focuses on preschoolers from families with moderate and low incomes.

I love peas, but they're not really that beneficial, and not best for my husband, who is diabetic. I also love broccoli, which is much lower carb and very nutritious.

I does not appear that Mrs. O is very knowledgeable about nutrition and diet.

It’s like their obsession with ice cream!

Maybe their lobbyist friends produced a special strain of peas... to get us sicker and into ObamaCommieCare faster....

Remember that first time ever earthquake in Washington DC that cracked the Washington Monument and toppled the finials at the National Cathedral?

Here's the photo taken a fraction of second before her right foot hit...now you know the rest of the story.

No, but you’re racist for actually thinking that she wants to run our lives.

Oh, wait...

She didn’t get those buns of hers by eating peas unless she ate the cans too.

I read my kids “If you give a mouse a cookie...”. They are all quite fit, and could kick the wookie’s butt.

My beef cows looked more svelte and were definitely more graceful than that pig.

But by gum ! Don't individuals attempt to GROW any sort of peas themselves. Only elites like Moochele are allowed.

Best tasting burger I ever had was from the milk cow that
broke my nose when I was getting her “plugged in”. Revenge
is a dish best seved hot with pickles, onion, and some
Botjees mustard!

We knew it was coming! No one can say that a LOT of us haven’t been screaming from the rooftops about this stuff!

What a flippin’ bunch of SHEEP in this country! Unreal.
