Ms. Obama’s BBQ Fetish


The South has been a GOP stronghold ever since the passage of the 1965 Civil Rights Act. President Obama broke their monopoly in the 2008 with victories in Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida. The Democrats seeking to broaden their appeal in Dixie appointed Charlotte, North Carolina to hold their 2012 convention. Their opponents guffawed at this attempt to invade their voting bloc and then ridiculed the First Lady for declaring that she was looking forward to eating some of the great BBQ in Piedmont city.

Her critics attacked Michelle Obama both for her supposed misunderstanding of Charlotte’s BBQ heritage and also the dietary dangers of a BBQ dinner. The Fox News website crowed on its blog, “Studies show a barbecue meal weighs in at around 2,500 calories.”

BBQ is not part of the low-calorie diet, but there’s nothing wrong with excess in moderation and more importantly Charlotte has plenty of BBQ pits within the city boundaries, such as Bubba’s Barbecue, McKoy’s Smokehouse & Saloon, Smokey Bones Barbeque & Grill, Bar-B-Q King, Sonny’s Real Pit Bar-B-Q and Hog Heaven Barbeque.

Maybe those BBQ ain’t white enough for Fox News and the GOP, plus ain’t nothing the Obamas can do right.

Except fuck up.

And they don’t eat no white trash BBQ.
