FIRST LADY APPROVES “SOUL FOOD” FOR DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
By FITSNEWS || U.S. first lady Michelle Obama is all about healthy eating … well, up to a point.
During an exclusive interview with NewsOne for Black America, Obama told host Roland Martin that those who vote Democratic in the 2014 midterm elections should be “rewarded with some fried chicken.”
Ah yes … call it the vindication of Fuzzy Zoeller, who made national news in 1997 when he suggested Masters champion Tiger Woods, the tournamentt’s first black champion, might choose friend chicken for its championship dinner the following year.
Anyway …
“Can we do ‘soul food after we vote?” Martin asked Obama during the interview.
“Absolutely,” the first lady responded. “I give everyone full permission to eat some fried chicken after they vote.”
“I do talk about health,” Obama continued, “but I think that a good victory for Democrats on Tuesday, you know, should be rewarded with some fried chicken.”
Hmmmmm …
“If you like your fried chicken, you can keep it, as long as you vote Democrat,” our friends at the website Zero Hedge noted.
Ha! We get it!

Hey Fits, please fix the clusterphuck that is your Disqus comment section. Today, there is an issue with clicking on the little red dot that indicates someone has “liked” a comment by you or responded to one. Clicking on the red dot does not take you to the list of interactions from fellow commentators. It just locks up the page you are on, making it impossible to scroll up or down the page or to click on any other aspects. To exit, you must refresh the page. Thanks!
I don’t know if it’s Disqus, Fits or my cpu but it take a lot of keystrokes to get around this site and it’s been that way for awhile.
Hi idcydm! Disqus has been hiccuping quite a bit on this site as of late. I know my computer is getting old, but something needs a little attention from their IT section, I believe.
…something needs a little attention from their IT section, I believe.
The IT section needs the same thing that makes Jameis Winston cry after sex.
Mace.
Disqus is really messed up today, that’s for sure. I’ll click to show new comments and nothing happens, click again and it just flat out disappears and no comment shows up. Have to refresh every time.
Disqus pushes my buttons by not letting me push theirs, dammit!
I wonder if this clicking the red dot issue has something to do with Haley.
As of this moment, after scanning over the comments, I think today the Disqus problem is the result of the commentators —
[a]…posting an unusual amount of words with 3 or more syllables
[b]…posting an extraordinary amount of complete sentences
Lol
What about us Democratic Vegan Voters? Do we get the watermelon, collards, and moon pie?
Holy fucking double standards, if a white candidate said this, democrat or republican, they would be vilified as racists. Harking back to images of black face, watermelon eating, segregation and slavery. But ol Moo’chelle Obama can say it and its comedy. What the fuck America? Racial Stereotypes uttered by black or white polticos needs to be blasted as fucking moronic and wrong.
Calm down. Fried chicken isn’t racist.
Wonder if she’s every heard of BROasted chiggins? Now THAT’S rasssssiss.
Well with republicans winning last night, I guess Michelle will not be allowing anyone fried chicken today.
And yet you yourself are truly a racist, so WTF do you care, WT?
Nah, the difference is that she was asked about soul food first. If a Republican was asked that question, no big deal with that answer. The only thing is that no black voter will ever be asking a Republican permission to eat soul food after voting.
America – What a country –
Democrats offering fried chicken
Republicans offering a dick up the ass
Libertarians offering a study group on how to be an ass
+10 — You win today!
I’ll take a competent prick any day of the week over fried chicken pandering socialists or fascist in the closet homos.
I still gave you a “thumbs up” anyway, because your bastard ass is funny.
Jim’s back!
That’s funny … What do the socialists have to offer? The vaseline? … To cook the chicken? …
“I give everyone full permission to eat some fried chicken after they vote.”
Spoken like a true food czar.
I feel so fortunate that she allows us the nice little things in life.
Don’t worry Republicans, Chick-Fil-A counts as fried chicken, right?
Not in Possum Kingdom!
Would it be racist if she had said watermelon?
Only if she was white.
How ’bout a coupla 40s an sum Newports?
*looks around*
Hey…she started it!
Ok. This is also a “Win” for today. It’s pretty much how I feel, too!

Ha! great link
Democrats will be eating crow before the night is over.
I shudder to think what Lindsey will be eating later on tonight.
Is that what that is. Someone said it was chicken.
Fried chicken, collard greens, dirty rice, and watermelon free for everyone that bring by a picture of your ballot showing a straight Democrat vote. Free fried chicken, collard greens, dirty rice, and watermelon. Stop by our MLK Boulevard location to take advantage of this offer!
That is a damn fine picture of some “friend chicken”. I think I’ll head on over to the Cataran Lodge tomorrow and celebrate it being Wednesday and have me some.
One TRUE tactic of a Passive Liberal (the definition of FITS) is that he craps himself over meaningless stories, while the REAL policy that damages Americans, FITS either ignores, blames the GOP, or he gets on the wrong side of them…
FITS touches a lot fewer people than establishment media, like The State, but there are a few kinda of stupid people, who are fooled by the dishonest like FITS…so is he more dangerous?
This just in: Michelle’s School Lunch Program is being used as the guidelines to feed the “illegal” “children” immigrants in certain “detention” camps in Texas, Arizona, etc.
The popularity of said lunches is on the negative side. … But, hey … at least they are being feed.
To be completely fair to Michelle Obama, your title says “FREE”. There is nothing about “FREE” in the story.
Michelle didn’t offer free fried chicken. She gave her permission for all democrats who voted to have one piece of fried chicken. Gave her permission!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!! The higher power has spoken. So it is said. So it shall be done.
“I give full permission to eat fried chicken…”. Thanks, but I was not aware that I needed permission to eat fried chicken.
Silence yourself citizen.
“Eating fried chicken without permission may have worked in the 1800s…but the world has changed…the founding fathers could not have envisioned computers…cell phones…air travel…nuclear weapons…Bojangles….”
Oooooooo. The food Gestapo is coming for you.
Keeping it unreal.Fits gotta KFC coupon,down at the bottom.
OK Michelle, how do I get my free Fried Chicken?…
