Michelle Obama Organic Garden Not So Organic After All
Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, August 1st, 2009 in Food & Drink, Gardening, Politicians.
When First Lady Michelle Obama broke ground for her organic garden on the South Lawn of the White House, everyone with an interest in natural, sustainable food choices cheered.
But if it seems too good to be true, it probably is and recent news has revealed the garden of organic Eden is tainted with non-organic sludge.
According to the Daily Finance, the National Park Service tested the soil in the vegetable patch and found “highly elevated levels of lead” due to sewage used as fertilizer.
And just who is to blame for the contaminated fertilizer?
Democrats would like to blame a Republican conspiracy, but the perpetrators were none other than Bill and Hillary Clinton!
When the Clintons inhabited 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, their gardening team used sewage sludge for fertilizer.
And since the sewage sludge has seeped into the ground of Michelle’s garden, it cannot truly be certified with organic status.
But local sewage is still better than imported.
