Lawmaker Says Michelle Obama Has ‘Large Posterior’ ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, By Betsy Rothstein on December 21, 2011 mediabistro.com
Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.), known for his cantankerous ways and for not speaking to media unless it’s his idea, was overheard at the Delta Crown lounge at Reagan National Airport today talking on his cellphone about an incident he said occurred three weeks ago while at an Episcopal church auction. Please note, a church auction.
Our source, a Democratic operative who heard the whole thing, said he was “very loud”. Sensenbrenner was overheard saying that after buying all their “crap” (his word) a woman approached him and praised first lady Michelle Obama. He told the woman that Michelle should practice what she preaches — “she lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself.”
The operative said it sounded like he was on the phone with a staffer who was telling him that someone in the media would likely write about his comments (concerning something) to which he said it was heresy and just liberal media bias to print gossip. But “he stands by his remarks.”
At this juncture we’d like to point out that Sensenbrenner, who typically celebrates his birthdays by eating Cheetos and shrimp, has no business discussing fat asses while having quite the big butt himself. And we realize that our picture is only head shot, but if this is what his noggin looks like, just imagine his backside. A note to the Congressman: “Let’s Move” could do you a WORLD of good. And lay off the Cheetos!
We reached out to Amanda Infield in Sensenbrenner’s Washington press office by both email and phone. When and if she responds, we’ll provide her quotes.
Read the email I sent to Amanda after the jump…
Amanda,
Hi. I write FishbowlDC. Your boss was overheard in Reagan National Airport today saying the following. He was saying he was attending a church auction some three weeks ago when a woman approached and praised Michelle Obama. This is when he said, “she lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself.”
So basically your boss told a constituent that the first lady has a big butt. My questions: 1. Does the Congressman realize that he, also, has a large behind? 2. Does he always speak so loudly on the cell phone?
Thanks very much. If you have a comment, please let me know.

what kind of journalism is this?

Way to go Sensenbrenner! Tell it like is! I'm sure all the easily offended, hand-wringing, hormonal, know-it-all, libby "victims" will cry like it's the end of the world, but most of us appreciate your candor. Michelle is a 2-faced, disgusting, self-centered piece of stool, like her husband.

Michelle while here in Vail Colorado last year dined on Chipotle Pork Ribs...all the while preaching at all of us to eat vegetables and rice...these people are supreme hypocrites.

Finally, someone else noticed! It is very large, indeed. The woman has no business telling anyone else what to eat!

Betsy, I am afraid hon that even with your leftist bent and Obama dedication you would recognize the complete hypocrisy on the part of First Lady Thunder Thighs instead of attempting to demean the representative with a losing argument. This doesn't reflect well on you or mediabistro at all. As an editor one would expect you to pick your arguments in a manner that will leave you above the fray, but instead you chose the Alex Weprin low road with a juvenile rant leaving the reader to wonder if indeed you have even a clue as to what is going on around you. You can do better. I am sure of it.

"Please note, a church auction." Why note that?
Obama is the Biggest Butt!
Moochelle HAS a fat ass for a fact.

And what was "Betsy" doing with her gossip email, lurking near Sensenbrenner? And that woman who approached him earlier about Michelle Obama? Don't tell me these were aimless, good natured approaches or communications, because they weren't. It's gotten to where one has to check all areas first for the Leftwing before speaking anything in the U.S.A.

finally, someone with some clout points out the obvious! Yes, MO does have a fat A*S
OMG, somebody finally said it! But they only said half of it because they were being polite. Michelle's arms are NOT flubby as has been pointed out, they are very muscular. Michelle Obama has HUGE arms, absolutely huge shoulders and biceps for any woman. She has a physical trainer, but it is her genetics at play here, and the trainer is training her with weights that are way too heavy, and not keeping the reps up, which is ridiculous for a woman. Michelle Obama's shoulders and biceps are as big as if not larger than Barack Obama's!!! There are very very few pictures with them with both arms bare, and in the ONE IMAGE that they let get out, Barack Obama has his hand on her bare shoulder and his hand looks tiny in comparison! Hahahaha, literally, the only way that she could be building her arms that large is if she was walking on her knuckles and swinging from trees at the White House. |
