You’ve got to be fricken’ kidding me…
Read this TWICE!
From the Washington Post:
Let’s say you’re preparing dinner and you realize with dismay that you don’t have any certified organic Tuscan kale. What to do?
<> Here’s how Michelle Obama handled this very predicament Thursday afternoon: The Secret Service and the D.C. police brought in three dozen vehicles and shut down H Street, Vermont Avenue, two lanes of I Street and an entrance to the McPherson Square Metro station.
What. The. Hell.
This tone-deaf, arrogant administration in a freakin’ nutshell.

6 Secret Service Agents, 1 Suburban, 30 minutes. How damned difficult was that to figure out. Hell, Billie Jeff used to slip out for McDs, and whatnot. Probably more whatnot the McDs.

Even easier: 1 intern and a bicycle, with a list of items to procure scribbled on a Post-It.
Of course, there’s the very real possibility that the intern would ahve the same question I did:
“What the hell is ‘Tuscan kale’? Is that anything like the Ramen noodles or Mac’N'Cheese that I can afford?”

Wonder how long before the presidential limo gets gold spinners and Skeletor gets a grill.

You’re the Junior Secret Service Agent on this shift. Guess what? Shit does roll down hill. Now go jogging and do some shopping while you’re at it. We’ll see you in an hour.
…why are you still standing there with your mouth open?

Gee, “buying local” to cut the carbon footprint.
And all the logistics, limos, Secret Service, Media, etc., gave that Tuscan Kale several thousand pounds of the oh-so-evil carbon footprint.
And last year, it was “arugula”.
Can’t the Dear Leader eat Iceberg Lettuce like the rest of us drones ??

Hey!
Yeah, you! What’s all this rabble? What are you yapping your mouths for?
Peasants! Shut up! Shut up now! Don’t you know your place? Mind your betters, peasants!
Now, get down and grovel before the Anointed One’s Wife as she graces you with her presence!
Filthy whining peasants!

The price of organic produce: $20
The price of sending the chef to get the produce: $25
The cost to US taxpayers for Op. “Mama Obama-Liberate Kale”: priceless
Well actually about $250,000, but hey, it’s only a few seconds of interest on a 3 trillion dollar deficet! “We’re movin’ on up!”
