Sensenbrenner's lackey "apologizes," Republican-style, for saying First Lady has a "large posterior"

Jim Sensenbrenner, Wisconsin Congressman, Says Michelle Obama Has A 'Large Posterior' (UPDATED)

The Huffington Post Ellie Krupnick First Posted: 12/21/11 05:12 PM ET Updated: 12/22/11 08:47 AM ET

MediaBistro reports that Sensenbrenner was overheard talking on the phone, retelling an incident in which he said about Michelle Obama:

"She lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself."

UPDATE: Rep. Sensenbrenner's spokesperson has responded to the Daily Mail's report on the subject, saying:

"Mr. Sensenbrenner was referring to the First Lady’s healthy food initiative. He doesn’t think the government should be telling Americans what to eat. While he may not agree with all of her initiatives, he plans to contact the First Lady’s office to apologize for his comments."

I remember him turning out the lights on Rep. Conyers in the basement where he was holding hearings, because Sensenbrenner would allow him to use space in the main building.
