In a shocking revelation Chris Christie came out against Michelle Obama's anti-obesity initiative. Story out of Council Bluffs, Iowa:
A Nebraska fifth grader's complaint about the flavor of his school lunch during a town hall provoked Gov. Chris Christie to lash out at President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama's six-year-old childhood nutrition and anti-obesity initiative, "Let's Move!"
Many at the Village Inn diner where Christie — a Republican presidential candidate — was holding his town hall Monday wanted to know about the governor's position on entitlement reform, drug sentencing, or ISIS.
But Jacob Loyal, a fifth-grader who lives just across the Missouri River in Nebraska, had a different and highly specific question.
"What are you going to do about the lunches?" demanded the 11-year-old sandy-haired boy.
Jacob lamented that his beloved beef and pork crispitos had deteriorated in both flavor and size "now that Michelle Obama is the lunch lady."
"The first lady has no business being involved," Christie said. "We agree. If she wants to give her her opinions on what people should eat for breakfast, lunch or dinner, that's fine. She can give her opinion. ... But using the government to mandate her point of view on what people should be eating every day, is none of her business." Cont.
According to the story the crowd applauded loudly, and then I assume became very winded.
