LOST IN THE SUPERMARKET

‘Hey Mom That Guy In the Produce Looks Kind of Like President Obama!’

Just eating the hell out of all the arugula ....
Not even the standard American grocery store is safe from do-gooder produce fanatic Barack Obama and his “town halls,” which now apparently take place at the only non-drive-thru buildings where the Citizens can be expected to show up with any regularity.

According to White House photographer Pete Souza’s official Tumblr on Flickr.com, Obama wasn’t really shrunken down and then inserted between the produce bins at the Kroger’s supermarket in Bristol, Virginia. Instead, presumptuously fit & trim President Barry is lecturing some trolls who wandered into the vegetable & fruit section after being told there was a donut giveaway.

Why not twinkies and Crazy Bread like REAL Amuricanz?
And then, after all the retired trolls on the Medicare waved their troll guns at the scary black man and ran back to their double-wides, Barack Obama took the “public option” and ate this peach (or nectarine) and then wiped his hands on the neck of an Old Person, “accidentally” strangling the teabagger in the process. Death Panels can happen anywhere! [White House Flickr]

    The Anti-Christ eats the forbidden fruit.

    I see the “value” grapefruit are the size of lemons. And I also see that Obama has a “thing” for white peaches. (Same as in that White House photo.)

    Obama comes into a room: “Where all the white peaches at?”

  3. Suds McKenzie says at 7:56 am, August 18th, 2009

    obligatory arugula joke.

  4. Suds McKenzie says at 7:57 am, August 18th, 2009

    Mahousu: he does clean up after a weekly cross burning.

  5. bignutz2 says at 7:57 am, August 18th, 2009

    The important bit is that Kroger’s has Clementines for $4.99/box.

  6. ProfessorJukes says at 8:15 am, August 18th, 2009

    bignutz2: Yeah. Fuck YOU, Whole Foods!

  7. dijetlo says at 8:17 am, August 18th, 2009

    Seriously, a black guy just picks a peach out of the bin at Krogers in Bristol VA and starts to eat it?
    They have a word for that in Bittertown, it’s called shoplifting. The Secret Service should be grateful that Sheriff Bubba T. Shitekicker was otherwise disposed at “Mama Chu-Chus Bang Bang Room and Fapatorium” up on 83 err he’da done justice to our Nigerien Overlord.

  8. Suds McKenzie says at 8:18 am, August 18th, 2009

    “excuse me, can I use your situation room”?

  9. ProfessorJukes says at 8:18 am, August 18th, 2009

    They only photographed him with the fruit, because all the vegetables were being euthanized. Thanks for saving us money, Barry!

  10. finallyhappy says at 8:20 am, August 18th, 2009

    The most amazing thing is that Ken posted at 7:39 AM. Ha, ha, it’s a joke- please don’t say “FU, you’re banned” now.

  11. Scott-san says at 8:29 am, August 18th, 2009

    finallyhappy: Had you added “Also.” at the end, you’d have been banned.

  12. itgetter says at 8:31 am, August 18th, 2009

    ProfessorJukes: Nobama’s death panels will conclude that vegetables are too expensive to keep alive.

    But at least he didn’t try to kill a perfectly healthy mother like some people.

  13. MathewBrooks says at 8:35 am, August 18th, 2009

    Where the fuck are clementines $4.99 a pound?!?!

  14. gurukalehuru says at 8:49 am, August 18th, 2009

    Scott-san: Also.

  15. Mahousu says at 8:49 am, August 18th, 2009

    MathewBrooks: They’re out of season now. Don’t bother. Unless you like illegal immigrant South American clementines.

    Anyway, we need a Deep Thought:
    As I bit into the nectarine, it had a crisp juiciness about it that was very pleasurable - until I realized it wasn’t a nectarine at all, but a HUMAN HEAD!!

  16. Eric Cheney says at 8:51 am, August 18th, 2009

    ProfessorJukes: Matt Yglesias shops there. He likes fruits and vegetables that come in shapes that give him pleasure: bananas, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants. The fun ones your Mom used to warn you about.

  17. ManchuCandidate says at 9:02 am, August 18th, 2009

    No wonder Obamacare is in trouble. Doesn’t he know that REAL US AMERIKUNs don’t eat fucking fruits and vegetables?

  18. alzronnie says at 9:03 am, August 18th, 2009

    Whole Foods is a better store for fruits. And bags of dicks.

  19. freakishlystrong says at 9:06 am, August 18th, 2009

    Oh shit, goodbye shitty job! I am howling and reading aloud and getting strange-ass looks…help!

  20. Damn, even standing in the produce section, Barry is smooth.

  21. hockeymom says at 9:11 am, August 18th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: Did you read the interview with the head of the Cleveland Clinic in the NYTimes Magazine this weekend? They won’t hire smokers, because smoking causes all sorts of health problems the clinic is trying to do away with….and then he said if he had his way, he wouldn’t hire fat people either. So put down that snickers bar people, and pick up a nectarine. Do it for your job!

  22. Don Juanquete says at 9:14 am, August 18th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: Let them eat Ketchup as a vegetable. A famous ‘Merican once said. Freedom fries too. them is also a vegetable. Too.

  23. Country Club Jihadi says at 9:21 am, August 18th, 2009

    No applesauce falling off the shelves?

    Terry: Clean-up in aisle 3, indeed.

  24. Fly Over Girl says at 9:27 am, August 18th, 2009

    Just like any other town hall forum … our Preznit meeting with a bunch of fruits.

  25. bureaucrap says at 9:31 am, August 18th, 2009

    caption for top pic: “Not only are nectarines healthy, but you can use them to make a spectacular nectarine-garlic-basil reduction. With talapia, it’s just out of this world!”

  26. widget09 says at 9:34 am, August 18th, 2009

    No “Oxford Style” debates at Kroger’s?

  27. BadKitty says at 9:51 am, August 18th, 2009

    Jesus H., he ate a piece of fruit without washing it first? Gag. Why not just lick the floor, Barry? And I certainly hope you paid for that fruit, young man.

  28. Don Juanquete says at 9:53 am, August 18th, 2009

    Terry: Barry Smoothie?

  29. mayor_quimby says at 10:11 am, August 18th, 2009

    I love the fact that my favorite group of libtards can make giving a speech in the produce section both funny and normal, like “just cold lampin’in aisle 1, talkin to my peeps.”

  30. finallyhappy says at 10:23 am, August 18th, 2009

    BadKitty: Yes, especially in Bristol, Tennessee- I’m thinking you can catch the stupid from things those people touch.

  31. Joshua Norton says at 10:26 am, August 18th, 2009

    None of them prices look that “low” to me. 49 cents a pound is LOW. $4.99 a pound is HIGH! It also means you’re going to have a lot of rotten fruit to throw out ’cause no self-respecting white trash is gonna spend their food stamp money on something as faggy as Clementines. That’s a pack of cigarettes fer chrissakes.

    We don’t need any goddamned elitist insurance either.

  32. HipHopOpotamus says at 10:33 am, August 18th, 2009

    This showing up in Bristol (Palin) Virginia and eating a fruit only solidifies my belief that Barack Hussein Obama wants to kill Sarah’s children & eat their brains, like the Kenyan natives of his home country.

  33. thefrontpage says at 10:51 am, August 18th, 2009

    Who are these assholes claiming health care “socialism?”

    We guess that Medicare and Medicaid–which provide health insurance money for tens of millions of Americans, including conservatives, far-right-wingers and Republicanas–is not socialism? Even though it is government-sponsored, taxpayer-sponsored, tax-money-sponsored health care? Of course it’s not “socialism,” and neither is the Obama administration’s health reform plan.

    Nothing done by the Obama administration is in any way “socialism.” If ignorant people think that the government providing money to help certain institutiions is “socialism,” then, fine, we’ll take out all of the government money that goes to Medicaid, Medicaid, Social Security, education, the military, police departments, fire departments, public works agencies, transportation, planning and zoning, code enforcements, consumer affairs regulations, commerce rules, trade laws, import and export laws, existing health care, social services, corrections, jails, prisons, buses, subways, trains, the postal service, drivers’ license agencies, environmental agencies, fish and wildlife agencies, natural resources, pollution controls, and about 5,000 other government functions.

    Is government sponsoring all of these areas “socialism?”

    Maybe we shouldn’t have any government, and we’ll just live in some crazy, psycho, lawless society. Yes, that would be better.

    These protesters need to shut the hell up, get a life, and stop acting like assholes

  34. June Cleaver 2.0 says at 11:02 am, August 18th, 2009

    I want my public option. How much is that a pound?

  35. June Cleaver 2.0 says at 11:05 am, August 18th, 2009

    Country Club Jihadi: Ha ha! Those were the days.

  36. zenferret says at 12:05 pm, August 18th, 2009

    That whole box of clementines is only a pound? Wow! I woulda thunk it was like five pounds for the normal Kroger Clementine price.

    Oh my darling oh my darling…
    Never mind I can’t sing.

  37. schvitzatura says at 12:11 pm, August 18th, 2009

    hockeymom: You see, according to Cocteau’s, I mean Cosgrove’s planwe’re the enemy, ’cause we like to think; we like to read. We’re into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. We’re the kind of guys who like to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder - “Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecued ribs with the side order of gravy fries?” WE WANT high cholesterol. We wanna eat bacon and butter and BUCKETS of cheese, okay? We want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section. We want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-o all over our bodies reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because we suddenly might feel the need to, okay, pal? We’ve SEEN the future. Do you know what it is?

    It’s a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing “I’m an Oscar Meyer Wiener”.

    (Lifted, from Denis Leary’s rant as Edgar Friendly in 1993’s Sly Stallone epic tour de force Demolition Man)…

    Does this include the guys working the loading dock and pushing a broom through the operating wards, too?

    Seitan is SATAN! HFCS Saves!

  38. finallyhappy says at 12:51 pm, August 18th, 2009

    schvitzatura: I actually have a Seitan is Satan button- my sister bought it for me in Greenwich Village. When I wear it, people say who is Seitan?

  39. CaptainOCD says at 1:18 pm, August 18th, 2009

    Oh, muh darlin’
    Oh, muh darlin’
    Oh, muh daaaarrrlin’ Kroger value grapefruit…

  40. MonaLisa65 says at 10:08 pm, August 18th, 2009

    Clementines? In AUGUST?!?! Is there NOTHING this man can’t do?

    He’s a magic man, mama….

  41. Oh’ my god is this Barack Obama in the super market? & what is he eating a peach with out washing it…. he needs a health insurance….http://bit.ly/invest_portfolio

  42. Does the President dare to eat an unwashed peach? Tonight at 11.
