You can't, because the media would never have drooled over themselves to report such a story about Dick and George.

You do realize there was a huge entourage involved? It wasn't just Obomber and Biden walking down the street for lunch.

Hell no they would not do that. They know they would be excoriated for pushing fatty foods. Then whenever they disagreed with something, they would claim they did something stupid because of Mad Cow disease.

Question is why did Obama do something so stupid?

the press you have creamed them for their bad eating habits. Waxman and Leahy would have called for hearings to see if they were tied to the cattle industry

That little photo op impressed you? Don't you feel like a sap?

Oooh, the Pres and Veep went out for a burger... Wow, man. They're just like ordinary people.

Not like those Republicans who eat caviar everyday for lunch.

The two leaders went right up to the counter where the meat was being grilled and ordered.

Each fetched cash from his pocket and paid, and then the pair stood like the rest and waited for their number to be called before going to a table.

The restaurant, which prides itself on premium aged 10-ounce burgers, sits in a small strip plaza. The burgers sell for $6.95.


The two leaders were offered the burgers for free. They turned down the offer.
