I was no fan of the Obamas, but when Michelle Obama spoke out against childhood obesity, I was a fan at least as far as that went. Not sure if her initiatives had any effect whatsoever, but props for at least saying something.  Michael Obama's war on obesity didn't do anything but waste money. Obesity rose at the exact same rate as before he made it his pet issue. Yet another case of a useless idiot patting themselves on the back for accomplishing nothing.
