Obama - Leading the Unhealthy American Way

Maybe another way to connect with Americans? Possibly another stab at winning back some of his lost popularity with the widely unaccepted government health reform bill? Who knows...
Well for one, he jokingly asks that no one tell the first lady.

"I don't want any lectures about my cholesterol," he told the press. "Don't tell Michelle."

Keep up the oblivious work, Mr. Obama, of driving more citizens into your rapidly expanding health bill.
