WASHINGTON — Following President Obama’s lunch meeting with Senate Republicans on Capitol Hill, Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins described the food served and said the president was not able to eat since his “taster” was not present.
“University of Maine recipe for healthy lobster salad — I pointed that out to the president in keeping with the first lady’s initiatives and Fox Family Potato Chips made in Aroostook County where I’m from and wild blueberry pie full of anti-oxidants, see this was a healthy lunch as well. We did have a little ice cream on the pie too, also made in Maine, Gifford’s Ice Cream. So in all seriousness this was well received,” Collins told reporters on Thursday after the meeting at the Capitol.
“He looked longingly at it,” Collins continued. “He honestly did look longingly at it, but apparently he has to have essentially a taster, and I pointed out to him that we were all tasters for him, that if the food had been poisoned all of us would have keeled over so, but he did look longingly at it and he remarked that we have far better food than the Democrats do, and I said that was because I was hosting.”

just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not after you
just look at what happened to the Queen this week. anything could happen.
best to be safe. after all... they are .. republicans (*ewww*)
*note: weirdness... the ‘post reply’ link didn’t show. had to make the URL by hand. also noticing the main index page isn’t filling up properly
I never understood the need for a taster. Very few poisons can act quick enough to kill someone where the food you are eating will still be eatable.
I’m guessing Leroy makes $200k/yr (or $100/hr) as the official ‘taster’
and he tries 0bama’s food sometimes as well
A man of the people should be brown-bagging.
You`d think some sort of super, ELISA test tube method would be far more accurate.
Yeah, LOL
why didn’t they just use a rat???... or were they all busy trying to kill the 2nd amendment over with F Stein.
Obama isn’t rich enough yet to be this anal.
Old Muzzie thing....Two muzzie big guys were fighting for power...One of the “ladies” had poison in her ring to put in the food.
ping for later
OMG!!! ONLY DICTATORS have TASTERS!!!!! WHAT AN ASS!!! or maybe he just didn;t have PERMISSION fromMOOCHELLE to EAT!!! What a PANSY!!! WHAT A DORK!!! OMG!!
Tell me that is a joke...please.
Finally, Obama has found his replacement for Reggie Love, his man crush, and now has LeRoy, the Official Taste-Tester for the CinC. Hot times in the Oral Office while Moochelle vacations on the taxpayer’s dollars.
No Emperor can east without a Food Taster.
Of course, after Litvinenko such acrobatics are completely irrelevant.
That’s what the old King of Norway used to do. Used to ride the city tram. Alone. And pay for the ride, too.
Collins should have told him she followed Bill Ayers’ recipe that he served Andrew Breitbart 2 weeks before he died, and then watched his response...
Liberals always accuse conservatives of doing what they themselves have done or are planning to do. Always.
