Vegetarian Star

Take a good look, folks.

It may be a dozen burger joints before you see something like this again.

Barack “Burger Boy” Obama was photographed eating a nectarine at Kroger’s after a town hall meeting in Virginia.

Is he taking Whole Foods CEO John Mackey’s advice and setting an example for health care?

After all the cow meat rendezvous ( Ray Hell’s, Five Guys, steak at his White House pad), it’s refreshing to see Mr. President making a great example by munching on something healthy.

From his facial expression, it almost looks as if he’s on some top secret mission to eat the apricot, though.

Are there Secret Service men hiding underneath the plums?

Is he thinking of switching the signs to get a better deal on those $2.99 limes?

No, stop it… Don’t make fun of the pres. Only reward him for the good behavior!

With all the bad publicity Barack Obama has gained in the eyes of vegetarians because of  his burger joint hopping habit, the President of the United States now has a chance to redeem himself.

People for the Ethical Treatments of Animals (PETA) has asked Obama to go vegetarian for one day of the week by participating in Meat Free Mondays.

In a letter written to the president, PETA’s president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk illustrates how former president Harry Truman called on people to refrain from eating meat on Tuesdays and poultry on Thursdays to help save grain and feed the hungry in Europe.

Now, Obama has the opportunity to help both people and the planet by initiating a similar program at the White House.

“Sir Paul McCartney is in town this weekend and has launched an initiative called “Meat-Free Mondays” to help stave off climate change, lessen the suffering of animals, and promote a diet healthier than the artery-clogging, obesity-inducing one that is a major cause of the soaring health-care costs and worker absenteeism in this country.”

“If you institute this program in the White House, it will be a giant step forward in transforming it to a green house, and it will set a wonderful example for people nationwide-or worldwide-who look to you for leadership when it comes to a kinder, environmentally friendlier, and more health-conscious approach to life.”

Oh yeah, Russell. Tell it like it is!

Barack Obama has been making a habit of visiting burger joints with the public watching. There was the Ray’s Hell Burger outing (yes, burgers are hell for many involved) with vice president Joe Biden. And the Five Guys Famous Burgers and Fries visit with NBC journalist Brian Williams.

We called Obama out, and now Russell Simmons is putting in his two cents in a politico.com video.

Russell suggests Obama get something healthier like a falafel.

Watch the video to hear Russell chastise Obama. Our favorite quote? “He’s young,” Russell said, referring to Obama needing to learn to make better choices. LOL! The elders are telling you to each your veggies, Barack.
