Thanksgiving dinner the healthy Obama way

Thanksgiving at the Obama White House today.

Too many appetizers to bother listing.

Kick-off the main event with:

Turkey

And then some Ham

And a choice of :

Cornbread Stuffing or

Oyster Stuffing

Or WTH have both.

Then some Greens naturally.

And, of course, Sweet Potatoes.

And it would be anti-American not to have Mashed Potatoes.

And don't forget the Green Bean Casserole.

Oh, and a mountain of  Macaroni and Cheese too.

And, to be polite, unlimited Dinner Rolls.

Now the good parts:

Dessert

Since First Lady Michelle Obama has OKd pies for ordinary Americans to consume this day and since, let's be honest, she's not doing the baking and neither is her Mom and he's sure not doing the dishes, order up a slab of all six pies (6, as in VI):

Apple Pie (Michigan's a battleground state, you know) and

Pumpkin Pie (it's patriotic) and

Banana Cream Pie to cleanse the palate for

Cherry Pie and

Huckleberry Pie and

The Main Man's Fave: Sweet Potato Pie.

Coma to come.

(UPDATE: Friday 12 p.m.: Working off part of this feast, Obama was playing basketball with friends Friday and caught a former friend's elbow in his mouth. 12 stitiches on the upper lip. No salt in tonight's popcorn.)

[Thucydides]

What, no cheeseburgers?

Liberals will never be taken seriously or be real leaders because they are HYPOCRITES
from al gores carbon footprint to michelle obamas fat behind to geithners and others NOT paying their taxes but calling for our taxes to be raised.
I hope liberals are never elected to power in this country again

[AnnaD]

All the best for the hypocrite-in-chief and his Marie-Antoinette wannabe, but for us? Sprouts. Tofu. Iceberg klettuce (can't have the peons eating Arugula)Yecch!

[Girl with the bushy armpits]

The absence of grits and smoked opossum head cheese shows how little
respect was shown for southern tradition....less the first family be reminded
of all those low brows who cling to their religion and guns.

After you consume all these healthy obama rated foods make sure you have at least four or five quarts of colt 45 malt liquer and at least two packs of kool longs to knock the edge off the colt 45 and then you take michelle and opra to the gym and get on the two bicycles with john deer tractor seats and green frames and stand back as the frames are painted in green and made in china no less and are very likely to collapse and bruise the butts that are already heavily padded yet still not bullet proof.

[Peta shocker !]

This was a triple treason to Peta with turkey,ham and oysters,just like Peter
the apostle reneging JC. Muslims will cringe at the ham,especialy since BHO
had muslim ancestors and a muslim up-bringing.Elitists and classy folks will
score this menu as gross and low brow. Expect the Michelin guide to downgrade the white house chef by multiple degrees. By the way,could Mr.
Malcolm tell us what happened with the left overs ?

[Overdosing on worst carbs.]

This menu will cause Dr Atkins to turn in his grave.It certainly disqualifies
any claims by the fist lady as a smart nutritionist.Diabetics should avoid even reading this poor excuse for a menu.

[bail bond]

I'm getting hungry reading about all of this food
