Michele Obama Scolds Olympics Hero Gabby Douglas for Eating an Egg McMuffin
NewsBusters ^ | 8/14/12 | Noel Sheppard

Posted on 08/14/2012 6:36:59 AM PDT by erod

JAY LENO, HOST: You trained your whole life, you win. How did you celebrate? What did you do?

GABBY DOUGLAS: We didn't have time to celebrate. It was team finals and had to turn the page all-around finals and event finals after that. But, after the competition, I splurged on an Egg McMuffin at McDonald’s.

LENO: Egg McMuffin.

[Laughter]

MICHELLE OBAMA: Yeah, Gabby, we don't, don't encourage him. [Laughter] I'm sure it was on…

DOUGLAS: A salad.

OBAMA: a whole wheat McMuffin.

LENO: It was on a whole wheat bun.

OBAMA: Yeah.

LENO: So an Egg McMuffin. Very good.

[Light laughter]

OBAMA: You're setting me back, Gabby.

DOUGLAS: Sorry.

OBAMA: It's so hard.

This wide-load mouthy busybody wants an ATHLETE, who expends more calories in half an hour than Mooch does in two days, to eat salads instead of protein and good quality carbs. Proof, as if needed, that leftwingers never know WTH they are talking about.

She needs to go harass her limp-wristed husband about his endless hot dogs, pies, and ice cream.

According to a dietitian I saw on TV mcmuffins are not bad for you.

Please be telling the truth. Please be telling the truth. Please be telling the truth.

Are three or four at a time still ok?

Lighten up?

I think that is the point to Mrs. Obama.

Exactly. The Fat A$$ First Lady knows so little about so much. The problem for her is she doesn't know what she doesn’t know.

Someone as young as Gabby, who I’m sure has a high metabolism, and wins Olympic gold medals doesn’t need a lecture from someone who has the butt the size of a Buick.

Maybe it was different if you actually saw the segment, but it sure reads like an overbearing food Nazi beating up a kid who has worked very hard and can eat anything she wants anyway. Too bad Gabby didn't come back and say something like it wasn't for Obama to tell her what she should eat.

The exchange I like to have heard:

OBAMA: You’re setting me back, Gabby.

DOUGLAS: Sorry, but you really haven’t made progress. As a matter of fact, I’ve wondered... do you have to pay for two seats when you fly... oh, wait... THE TAXPAYERS pay for your vacations. So, why again are you bothering me?

Heh, your post reminds me of a line by actor/comedian Kevin James: “Never take dieting advice from someone a whole lot fatter than you.”

Misleading headline - it was a silly joke and actually came across very funny. The entire segment was good.

Up here in the great white north the term Canadian Bacon is seldom heard. Bacon yes but the point of origin of the piggy seems irrelevant. London Broil is another term that seems specific to the US. We do use french fries however. :)
