The first lady was asked to respond to critics of the program, who say the government should not be telling people how to eat&#8221; by an 11-year-old girl. &#8220;Topanga Sena, age 11, a reporter for Scholastic News in Florida,&#8221; asked Mrs. Obama this question: &#8216;How do you respond to critics who say the government should not be telling people how to eat or to stay active?\u2019 Michelle Obama: &#8216;You know, that\u2019s absolutely right &#8212; and Let\u00c2\u2019s Move! doesn\u2019t do that.'&#8221; Yes, it does, Mrs. Obama.  I am willing to bet that there\u2019s not a single Drive-By Media reporter of any kind who has dared ask this question of Michelle Obama.  But an 11-year-old little girl asks: What about all the &#8220;critics who say the government should not be telling people how to eat or to stay active?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The first question that Michelle Obama gets challenging her power over the American people as first lady comes from an 11-year-old.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"585\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kX_1Ws-Dg2o?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>SENA:  How do you respond to critics who say the government should not be telling people how to eat or to stay active?<\/p>\n<p>MICHELLE:  You know, that\u00c2\u2019s absolutely right &#8212; and Let\u00c2\u2019s Move! doesn\u00c2\u2019t do that. Let\u00c2\u2019s Move! is not about having government telling people what to do, because government doesn\u00c2\u2019t have all the answers. I mean, a problem that\u00c2\u2019s this big and affects so many people requires everyone to step up. So we\u00c2\u2019re asking everyone to do their part. Parents have to make some changes at home, but they need the information to be able to make those choices. And they have to have access to affordable foods in their communities &#8212; fresh and healthy foods, right? We need government to do its part, but we need businesses to do their part, as well.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So, there\u2019s Mrs. Obama: &#8220;No, our program doesn\u2019t do that! No, no, no. Government doesn\u2019t do that. It doesn\u2019t tell people what to do.  We\u2019re asking everybody do their part. Parents have to make some changes at home, but we\u2019re not telling people what to do.  But parents have to make some changes, and businesses have to make some changes &#8212; and we gotta get good foods in your house. But we\u2019re not telling anybody what to do.&#8221;  Right.  Yeah, right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: And this from the Free Beacon, the Washington Free Beacon: &#8220;Michelle Obama defended Let\u2019s Move!, her anti-obesity program, in an interview released Monday.
