No steak for YOU*

They’re stuffing their faces as they’re flying around the world in private jets telling US that we need to conserve.
Didn’t Jesus say a few choice words about hypocrites?
Didn’t we have a story last week about Obamas love of Lincoln Navigators or maybe Cadillac Escalades or something?
And is he actually suggesting we cut down on arugula?
It’s a sad day…..
Socialism has entered the KITCHEN.
( you did say something about heat and the kitchen, didn’t you?)
Eat
Readit and weep.Heil to the commander and head nanny…we better watch what we say about Michelle or she’ll cut down on our rations.
Speaking of eating, I still can’t get over “Men’s Fitness” magazine naming Obama one of the fittest men in America - he has the bony wrists and lanky forearms of a thirteen year old girl! Fittest? I think not!
“Let them eat crust.” - supposedly Maria Theresa of Spain
“Let them go naked.” - Teresa Heinz Kerry
“Let them go hungry, naked and S.U.V.less.” - Barrack Hussein Obama
Do as I say not as I do.
The worst possiable creed for a leader of any kind.
This discussion isnt helping Michelle Obama’s kids…finish breakfast.
Yay for hypocracy!
I’ll be having a monster burger from hardees, or a wendy’s triple stack, to celebrate!
Bingo. Apparently, “personal choice” only applies to things like abortion and promiscuity (you know, that whole “keep your laws off my body” mantra).
The religion of global warming requires its followers (both willing and unwilling) to starve, freeze, and encourage a regression of the standard of living.
India wants each US citizens to cut 1000 calories off his daily diet. This is from a country with over 1 billion people.
The funny part about the pic on the link is that if you scroll over it, the picture continues to get bigger each time you scroll over it. I did not realize it at first, but Gore gets REALLY big after scrolling over 25 times or so. I just thought I’d point that out because it wasn’t obvious to me.
The irony of liberals calling the American people gluttons is no doubt lost somewhere on Hollywood Blvd.
Al Gore needs to worry less about the size of my carbon footprint and more about the size of his buttprint.
Is Obama saying that the United States has taken a “just let me eat my waffle” attitude with the rest of the world ?
Americans start getting all upset if someone talks about food.
Now, imagine how smokers have felt since the ’70s. I want no person in my business, pocket, kitchen, bedroom, patio at all. I am an adult, and as long as I’m paying for my own stuff, you will not tell me how to live!
I agree that too many Americans are gluttons. I don’t hate America, either, but I think this is true. It’s nice and thoughtful to conserve because it shows you care about future generations. Americans would do well to eat a more plant based diet, as well. It would not only suck less energy, but we would be slimmer and healthier as well. Later on, this would decrease the burden on our hospitals and health care and you also get the benefit of being healthy, painfree and active in your middle to late years.
However, I do get disgusted as everyone else does, when politicians don’t follow suit. I’ll never forget his $60.00 a pound ham. Gross. Totally extravagant, totally thoughtless on so many levels. I don’t believe his is a religious man at all at heart because he is so into stuff like that rather than living a noble life.
Beat to me that one, libertyvista. Wanna share a waffle?
Two things:
Next time Obama asks, “Can’t I just eat my waffle?” The answer is, “No, I just got off the phone with China and India and they want you to put the waffle down. They are not okay with you eating your waffle.”
Second, this was the guy that ate $100/lbs ham in Philly a month ago wasn’t it. I guess when American’s pay 100 bucks for ham, they can’t eat that much.
Hate the food stories…
they give me an urge for one of these….
cheese burger
yum.
Sorry, I love my bacon of the month club memership too much to have a plant based diet.
I don’t eat beef but boy do I want one of those… ummm, ummm good.
And send those calories to hungry Indians? They’ve got a whole lotta catching up with Americans to do and I sense an opportunity here for a calorie credit transfer business. : )
I prefer the high carb diet.
Next time I put ketchup on my burger I’m doing it while spelling up yours India.

I still can’t get over:
1. Bill Clinton named Person of the Year in 1992 and 1998.
2. Hillary Clinton named Honorary Speaker for Anita Hill’s ABA Woman Lawyer of Achievement 1992 Award.
3. Al Gore named the America the world needs to meet.
4. John Kerry named one of the most restless intellects in America.
The years are not being very kind to Al, are they?
Put the fork down and nobody gets hurt. Now move away from the waffle!
Does Obama put Arugula on his $100.00 ham?
As I eat my peanut butter sandwich for lunch.
I’ve been calling these freaks SOCIALISTS for a long time. I’ve been on blogs where the self professed Converative blog host has asked me not to call liberals such names. We are in a heap of trouble friends. Even Republicans have sold out to the left.
I’ll eat whatever the fu$% I want, and I’ll drive whatever vehicle that suits my fancy. If you don’t like my choices then go straight to hell.
Give me a steak of give me death!!!
Who the F made this ahole king? Both Gore and Obama are socialist scumbags. SUV’s, can’t eat what we what, 72. Go F yourself.
So we use 25% of all resources. Didn’t we create the technology and industry to have these resources?
Why can’t we expand pie? Who said it was finite? New and better technologies will come along, if govt will get out of the way.
Remember those idiots in the 70’s that said we’d be out oil, then fuel injection added efficiency?
Get ready for the Obama re-education camps. And get ready to be hungry and cold for no reason if this self righteous moron gets elected.
I’m picturing the camps right now. Anyone remember the movie Red Dawn?
Yeah, considering the average calorie recommendation for women is somewhere between 1250-1750/day, I can imagine how great I’ll feel eating only 250 calories!
Look, I’m for being responsible, eating healthy, and the like. But this is ridiculous. You want to talk about conserving resources, Obama? Alternatives? How about hydroelectric dams, nuclear power, wind farms? Oh, that’s right - the NIMBYs and BANANAs make it impossible to build those things!
How about tax incentives for voluntary “green” living?
Or, better yet, how about not treating global warming as a religion and putting so much weight on the opinions of the world?
As an alternative, if we start calling food “abortions”, Obama won’t be able to regulate our eating at all!
Okay, I’ll have a double order of fries to go with my soyburger - I’ll need more calories to burn as I peddle my bike to work since the Obamessiah took away my SUV : )
Obama is a scrawny twit. What does he know?
What happened to freedom?
Yeah, my plants really flourish in the Wisconsin winter, so I’ll have plenty of vegetables to eat in December, January, February…
Furthermore, how much of that are we exporting?
I suppose we could use less resources if we weren’t feeding the world.
Just keep speaking Oblahma, just keep speaking…. rofl. flippin tool.
healthy living and exercise is just fine. But dont tell me to put down the gallon of soda i get at my favorite fast food place.
If i want to get a bucket of popcorn at the theater thats DRIPPING with butter from the bottom, thats my right.
If i want to eat a 3000 calorie thickburger, well…welcome to america.
If i choose to be unhealthy…well, look at all the unhealthy things people lobby for…if you’re going to tell me not to eat my burger and fries, then you hippies are going to have to put your bong down and STFU, because that isnt good for you either.
Sorry, I work out and live a decent life. But I still like the choice of being a bit of a pig once in a while too
Since the Dems subsidizing of ethanol and it’s resultant food shortages (and skyrocketing prices) are keeping people from buying too much food, I guess that Obama’s ideal is coming true. But GOREbachev can afford it because that carbon credits company he runs keeps him knee deep in swine grease and cheddar.
What i would like to see: Algore and Michael Mooreon in a hotdog eating contest. I think Moore would be the “heavy” favorite.
For all the gases that emanate from Gore’s holes, he’s gonna need a lot of credits for the volume of crap that comes out of him.
OK, I will send a Big Mac to India tomorrow - everybody happy?
I know this is crude….but I’m not waiting for Obama speech where he tells me I need to regulate my farts.
Is it okay if I have 2 cookies Mr.Obama sir?
What days of the week can I drive my moped sir?
How much does it cost to heat Obama’s $1,600,000.00 house?
Americans would do well to eat a more plant based diet, as well. It would not only suck less energy, but we would be slimmer and healthier as well. Later on, this would decrease the burden on our hospitals and health care and you also get the benefit of being healthy, painfree and active in your middle to late years.
I’m 42 years old. In that time one thing I have learned is that one can live to be 100 if one never does anything to make it worthwhile to live to be 100.
Pass the cheeseburger, fries, and shake.
Abstract, Mr. Obama just put out a memo limiting the amount of Popcorn you can eat at the movies. You will get your ration coupon in the mail. Henceforth all theaters will set their thermostats at 77 degrees and all bread will be pumpernickel. Please see the Commandant in the red jacket for futher details.
Sincerely
Big Brother.
What about the homeless Muslims?
Tre, the Administrator of Life Span has decided that 80years is your limit. By 80 you will have zero production capacity and the Commisssars find your existance to therefore be meaningless. We shall give you 2 weeks to get your papers together for taxing purposes and for a chance for you to say good bye to your Party associates.
Thanking you in advance for your commitment to MOTHER EARTH.
Sincerely
Big Brother.
MO’Bama has more junk in the trunk. before it is passed on to us, start at home BO’Bama.
Could somebody please explain to the “EAT MORE PLANTS” dimwits that if more Americans did indeed consume significantly more plant-based foods/nutrients that that would lead to a surge in the demand, and, if the supply cant keep up… RISING PRICES.
ANNOUNCEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT.
Pork has been banned.
Our Muslim brothers have deemed pork to be discriminatory. We hereby ban it for all purposes.
Polar bear has also been taken off of your menu.
Thank you,
that is all.
Big Brother.
Jeddite, it’s for a good cause.
Exactly. Promiscuous sex leads to health problems (both physical and mental), not to mention birth control pills affecting hormone levels in water and condoms polluting landfills.
We’re always told that’s a personal choice, what happens in the bedroom is nobody’s business, etc.
So when will Obama get up there and say, “We can’t have as much sex as we’d like…that’s not leadership…”?
N-E-V-E-R.
He can only come into our kitchens, our bathrooms, our vehicles.
Wow.
Let’s see, Linda McCartney was a trim, fit nearly life-long vegetarian yet she died from breast cancer during her middle years. Jim Fixx preached the gospel of jogging for fitness and longevity and he died from a heart attack.
Certainly you can help your odds by eating more healthy food and less crap. I probably consume more antioxidants than just about anybody. But when you factor in genes, stress, and other variables, there ain’t no such thing as a sure thing.
And whatever the case, IT’S NOT THE BUSINESS OF THE GOVERNMENT OR FOREIGNERS!!
Hear, hear greenfairie!
Gore’s next movie…
Inconvenient Cellulite
We’re having ice cream at work today….I have an extra dip for a dips**t that wants Europe to approve of my diet.
Bite THIS ObaGore!
As much as I can’t stand the hypocrites telling us what to do, there ARE a lot of people who eat way too much. Hell, our poor people are fat! How can we be fighting a “hunger crisis” among fat people? A lot of those kids “who go to bed hungry” are fat. WTF? Nobody in our country should ever truly go hungry, but by my definition if you are fat, you are not hungry.
There are also many good reasons to cut back on energy consumption, although Al Gore is a complete A-**&! for his hypocrisy on the subject
I live just outside of Portland. I was one of the “4 out of 5 people” who did NOT go to Obama’s appearance on Sunday. However, when he’s in Portland he stays at a hotel right across from my office, and it has not escaped my notice that every time he travels in a large black SUV.
Mmmmm… this topic is making me hungry. I think I’ll have Chicken Parmesan Hero from Geraldi’s for lunch today.
They can take my life, but they can’t take my CHEESEBURGER!!!!
There was a study done recently (one that is escaping my memory for a link atm) where it was shown that the impact on cost of healthcare for those living past 70 (nursing homes, meds, assisted living, etc.) is higher than those died before 70 (heart attacks, diabetes, etc). So the whole eat better to save money on the healthcare system appeared to be in question.
If people want to eat themselves into an early grave so be it. Do you really want Big Brother gov’t breathing down your neck forcing you to eat your spinach and throwing you in jail for having a cheeseburger?
I’m not advocating eating like a glutton (as Gluttony is sinful) all the time, as I believe that you should eat a balanced diet and exercise and keep your body and mind in the best state of readiness as possible. But I don’t think Big Brother belongs in my living room watching what I eat.
SNORT! Thanks for my afternoon laugh…
“Can’t I just eat my waffle?” LOL
Once again the empty suit continues to give the GOP plenty of ammunition. Too bad McCain and the rest of the RINOs are too stupid to put it to use. The good old liberal mantra of “rules for thee and another set of rules for me.”
I believe Rosie has a very prominent role in this “blockbuster”…
Stay away from transfats, fructose, corn syrup in the products you eat as much as possible. Hidden sugar.
Eat real food: eggs, beef, cheese, fruits and veggies etc.,
Most American’s don’t get enough protein or fiber. Add more protein and fiber. Without out any other changes, people would gain muscle and lose weight.
We don’t need to get weird on restrictive diets. Once I stopped dieting and ate more protein and fiber, the weight melted off.
You will shut up and eat your SOYLENT GREEN.
That is all.
Sincerely
Big Brother.
Maybe Jesus Obama can start by cutting funding for FOOD STAMPS.
Eat all of your Vegetables Al Gore, children in India are starving.
He’s right if Obama is talking about Al Gore. I couldn’t eat nearly as much as that!
You must understand people, liberals are the busy bodies of America. They NEVER feel the rules are about them. They are ALWAYS about everybody else.
This is still a free country pre-November election 2008. If you feel this way, great! YOU DO IT! BUT STAY OUT OF MY KITCHEN! Liberals always want to enslave you to what they think you should do. No different from southern slavery, I am sure they thought they were justified by what was best for society!
I have seen studies that say that 40 percent of all the money spent on health care comes withing 6 months of the end of ones life. We spend the money in the vain hope that somehow we will cheat death.
Have you seen the size of Indians? I am 6 foot three. That is the equivalent of two tiny Indians. I don’t like whiny shrimps here or there. Deal with it!
I’m bitterly clinging to my Steak and Potatoes, until they pry them from my cold, dead fingers.
Gore. Why did he have to be from and return to my home state. Why couldn’t he have come from and now live in one of the other 56…
…U.S. states?
#37 is completely right. How much could we save if we weren’t trying to save the rest of the world? Every disaster that comes along, we want to be first in line to provide aid to a bunch of people who are trying to overthrow our way of life. How many of these nations or the United Nations ever helped the U.S. when we had a disaster? I say kick everyone out who doesn’t belong here or who doesn’t want to be here and use our own resources for our own people.
Imagine the impact that this influx of illegals will have on our resources but you don’t hear liberals decrying that illegal immigration must stop. Instead, they can’t come up with enough crafty ways to give them amnesty and keep them here permanently.
The media is reporting that Ted Kennedy has a brain tumor (while we’re on the subject of health and longevity anyway).
Mary Jo was unavailable for comment. Nuff said.
All this dicussion is making me hungry. WHO WANTS PIE?!?!!?
I’d love a slice of sweet potato cheesecake… Got any?
Fresh out…but i have cheesecake! Strawberries are on the side for those who want it.
*sets the plates out*
I would suggest that Obama and his ilk, stop flying their private jets on their 2 year campaign……or take a commercial airline…..or public bus……or small cars….or bicycles etc.
Also I would suggest to all those countries that we are feeding and giving our hard earned tax dollars, to limit their population.
Then I would, if I could, to tell Obama…..along with most of the politicians to stay the hell out of my business!!!!!!!!
What a gracious host.
*grabs a plate and starts grubbing*
The uninformed make great liberal voters. Imagine coming from a dump of a country and some pol telling you that you get free: education, health care, food stamps etc., etc.,
Entitlements… What a country.
JT,
Too true.
Sweetend Tea, Lemondade, and Mountain Dew are in their respective spots in the fridge. Coffee’s brewing.
Ice Cream for pie as well, I got Butter Pecan and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (my 2 favorites)
Mi casa es su casa!
Just save me some pie!
Summed up
Eat Tu Obama
http://conservativeshrug.blogspot.com/2008/05/et-tu-obama.html
The headline on Drudge yesterday was shocking enough, “Obama says we can’t eat what we want…” The full quote was a nasty bit of crypto-marxist ranting:
“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said.
“That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.
What the article missed was another of his quotes,
“We can’t continue to consume 25% of the earth’s energy with only 3% of the population.”
Oh really. Three things jump out at me there. First, nice to see you getting your quotes from our enemies again. Two, while not a lie, it’s a damnable deception that only a crypto-marxist America hating a**hole would say. And three, why don’t you and your mouth-breathing supporters volunteer to live like your family in Africa so we can get that ratio right. Look, energy consumption is the byproduct of a high standard of living. All these anti-capitalism p****s want to do is screw this country into the ground and this kind of speech is a perfect example of that mindset.
When talking about our energy consumption as a percentage you should always place it in context of our GDP and not percentage of population.
Using that comparison: we have 26% of the worlds GDP and use 25% of it’s current energy consumption. And even that doesn’t tell the whole story because crypto-marxists treat all things economic as static values. As the world achieves a higher standard of living, particularly China and India, both percentages will decrease and the percent energy use will decrease much faster due to their inefficient use of energy compared to the US.
Thanks for being a backstabbing pr**k, again, Obama.
Yummy in my tummy!
Is the Butter Pecan - Breyer’s?
Beggars can’t be chosers…
It is in fact Breyers
Excellent…
I hope we’re not going to give up our asprin. I have a feeling I will be needing it.
Only if the aspirin is grown locally and shipped to electricity-free drug stores via humanely treated horses.
They can drop mine off at the re education camp.
We buffer all Soylent green with many things that are good for you.
We know what is good for you.
Eat up!!
