GOP Rep. Sensenbrenner On Michelle Obama: ‘She Lectures Us On Eating Right While She Has A Large Posterior’
Wisconsin’s GOP Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R) has a beef (and a side of mash potatoes) (with extra butter) (tip your waitress) with First Lady Michelle Obama, particularly with her attempts to promote healthier eating and exercise habits.
According to a “Democratic operative” who shared his or her story with Fishbowl DC, Sensenbrenner, speaking loudly on his phone at Reagan National Airport’s Delta Crown lounge, relayed a story that happened following a church auction: After he’d bought a bunch of “crap,” a woman came up to Sensenbrenner and praised the First Lady, prompting him to muse that “she lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself.”

Fishbowl DC reached out to Amanda Infield at Sensenbrenner’s Washington press office, asking “1. Does the Congressman realize that he, also, has a large behind? 2. Does he always speak so loudly on the cell phone?”
Ms. Infield responded thusly:
Hi Betsy, I am not going to comment on my boss’ “behind.”
Mr. Sensenbrenner was referring to the First Lady’s healthy food initiative. He doesn’t think the government should be telling Americans what to eat. While he may not agree with all of her initiatives, he plans to contact the First Lady’s office to apologize for his comments.
Amanda
My two cents? These two should each bring a dish of their choice to a potluck lunch and discuss the government’s role in public health.
