Oh , leave the girls alone

[question everything]

About an hour ago, on MSNBC - they probably needed to kill some time - had a detailed story about... today's school menu for Malia and Sasha.

Is this what's in store for them? Detailed stories about their clothes, lunch, new friends and - gasp - grades?

1. I think the Obama's gave the media this week but I'm betting

no more info after that.

2. So, what did they have for lunch?

[Morning Dew]

3. I hope it wasn't carrot coins

yuck.

8. The school my kids went to

treated lunch menus as highly classified information, and I could NEVER find out what was scheduled to be fed to my darlings.

[Kalyke]

12. It's online, now.

I have the lunch menu sent daily to my email.

14. Food has obviously improved at Sidwell

Some of the foods I hated most at Sidwell were meatloaf, fish sticks, greasy pizza, and tuna fish sandwiches. It was actually all kind of bad.

16. Yum. That looks much better than mystery casserole

4. If anyone needed proof

that the degradation of the American television media is complete, I think this would be it, don't you?

[Kahuna]

6. That was disgusting. They SHOULD BE ashamed. But they are not. nt

7. Be thankful it was not a graphic discussion about feminine hygine products.

[question everything]

10. Yes, was thinking about that. Still Malia is only 10

so... give them time.

[TWiley]

11. Never misunderestimate the curiosity of the Conservative Media

[kiva]

17. Don't know that it's reasonable to lay it off on

the Conservative Media, considering there has been more than one thread here on the subject, complete with pics--I suspect there's a fan element that the media is courting.

[TWiley]

20. I thought it sounded like a Fox News Story

[Deja Q]

18. The media should know better, but scrutinizing Presidential offspring is hardly a new concept.

[csziggy]

19. Yeah, they just re-aired that - and I was yelling at the TV that is NOT news!

I guess they are frustrated there was not a bigger stand off over the Illinois Senate seat or more explosions in Gaza, or some other news.

Or maybe they just want to give us "feel good" stuff rather than the truly important news. Bleah!

21. Jon Stewart was having fun with that earlier on his show (nt)
