Today's "gate"...S'moresGate, Palin's patriotic cry to have parents' voices heard, not Michelle's
So Michelle wants kids to have healthy meals and Palin has an issue with that. Gotcha. The Republicans would have been blowing non-stop wet smoochies to Laura Bush if she'd encouraged a similar initiative.

:eyes:



(CNN) – Sarah Palin is again taking aim at Michelle Obama over her anti-obesity campaign, taking the opportunity in Sunday's "Sarah Palin's Alaska" to land a diss against the first lady's efforts to improve nutrition.

While making s'mores at one point during Sunday's episode, the former Alaska governor proclaims the marshmallow and chocolate treat is "in honor of Michelle Obama, who said the other day we should not have dessert."

Palin's comments Sunday appear to be in reference to a speech Michelle Obama delivered in July, during which she described her own upbringing when it came to food and exercise.

"In the afternoon, there was no way we'd be allowed to lie around the house watching TV," she told the NAACP in a Kansas City speech. "Our parents made us get up and play outside."

"As I tell my kids, dessert is not a right," she added.

8. Too busy exercising her constitutional right to stuff them with candy and cake
I don't get this person, wasn't she on the cover of Runner's World not so long ago? Why is she shoveling this wingnut bullshit at Michelle Obama?

6. When is it going to become obvious to the public...
that these people will say and do anything to keep her in the spot light and that no matter what the Obama's say or do, they will attack it.
