Jim Hoft, Gateway Pundit:
White House Garden Tests Positive For Lead
- Wouldn’t it be hilarious if the First Family gets lead poisoning from their own garden?
‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard. We are aware of all Internet traditions.™

Almost any downtown area in a large city will test positive for all sorts of things.
93 PPM for lead isn’t a worry.
Stupid wingnuts are stupid.

So it then might be prudent to soil-test the WH victory garden, especially with schoolchildren involved…
Sorry, I meant to say, it is now necessary to dispatch horticultural death-squads to confiscate the heartland’s flowerbeds.

Another commenter gives us “I love to walk through the Unemployment office and say out loud ‘HOW”S THAT OGAMMA CHANGE WORKING FOR YOU NOW?’”. See, this is why conservatives can’t be funny: because they think the above is the ultimate in wit and cleverness. Once you go hack, you never go back. Although I don’t doubt the commenter spends quite a bit of time in the Unemployment Office.

To put this in English, if the Obama garden had 420-percent more led in it than it does now, – then – it would border on being unsafe.

This is one of those instances where it’s a shame there weren’t no internet back in the day. The AP gives no detail on what form of lead was found in the garden but it’s probably Tetra-ethyl. Imagine the blogospheric record we’d have of wingnuts freaking out about the evil jack booted thugs from the EPA oppressing the capitalist heros of the Ethyl Corporation by outlawing the use of Tetra-ethyl in gasoline. And oh those activist judges who sided with the EPA when the Ethyl Corporation sued them. When you look into the effects of Tetra-ethyl though, you begin to realize there’s a chance that the wingnuts won’t always be with us:
Stupid EPA.

Well then perhaps you can enlighten us and tell us what was the reason for posting the article with the unflattering photo of Mrs. Obama? Concern over the non-dangerous level of lead in the garden?
Nom de Plume said,

Really, the only point I can see to Hoft’s “story” is as a set up for his completely deranged commentors. Post a picture of someone they hate, step back and let idiots be idiots. Hey, whatever turns you on.

I’m sure if I felt like doing some digging on this lovely Saturday morning I could, in about four minutes with the Great Gazoogle, come up with at least three quotes from wingnuts claiming lead is just fine for you and harmless and only some Big Gummint nanny-state busybody would argue otherwise.
But I’ll leave the execution to the interested student, ’cause I can’t be arsed.

Couple of things:
1) You’re free to reject the suggestion.
2) “Shorters” and “suggestions” are not really the same thing as literal transcriptions. cf. All Internet Traditions, Aware of.
It’s like when somebody says they’ve “read between the lines”? You don’t then object that you don’t see anything there but white space.

I don’t see a crescent, but if i were a good wingnut I would point out that there is a broken, twisted cross laying on it’s side in there. Must be some kind of symbolism.
Oh, and the angle of the crossbeam points straight to Mecca. (give or take 180 degrees) Also the tangent pints to the Mountain Dew plant and the main beam points to Frito -Lay’s main Cheeto plant.

Troofie: still waiting on your acknowledgement of your lie on that Michael Moore quote. Waiting…waiting….
Seriously though, the White House garden?! This is the one thing I’ve heard absolutely nothing but positive comments about. If making insulting remarks in right-wing dogwhistle-speak about that is all they’ve got left, man, that’s pathetic.
Of course, these are the descendants of the same people who thought it was amusing to ridicule LBJ as “Light Bulb Johnson” when he suggested that lights be turned out in the White House when not in use. I guess if something works for you….

The source of the post about the WH garden is that it has been discovered that the WH lawn was fertilized with sludge:
Starting in the late 1980s and continuing for at least a decade, the South Lawn was fertilized by ComPRO, a compost made from a nearby wastewater plant’s solid effluent, a.ka. sewage sludge. Sludge is controversial because it can contain traces of almost anything that gets poured down the drain, from Prozac flushed down toilets to lead hosed off factory floors. Spreading sludge at the White House was a way for the EPA to reassure the public that using it as a fertilizer for crops and yards (instead of dumping it in the ocean, as had been common practice) would be safe.
Because brainiac above doesn’t link to a story, it makes it easy for the knuckledraggers like Ken and his friends to blame it on the Obamas, or perhaps on the practice of gardening itself, but it appears that it’s the legacy of the late Reagan/Bush I years, and only stopped sometime in the Clinton administration.

Nice. I’m doing too much work in the kitchen for today’s BBQ, but wasn’t there a Republican quoted back in the Clinton era who said Chelsea was fair game?
Thing is, Obama actually spoke out in defense of Palin’s family – the “off limits” quote wasn’t in response to something said about him, it was in response to something said about the Palins. No acknowledgment or gratitude from Palin – she even twisted what he said to imply he meant off limits for himself but not for her.
Only in someone’s most delusional fevered imagination would they think that he condones the jokes about the kids. But it’s nice to see their ugly intentions revealed, that they want to “destroy” a seven year old girl.

On stage at the convention, the election night speech, & the inauguration. First Grandmother/mother-in-law moves into White House to help take care of them. Where will they go to school? THEY’RE GETTING A PUPPY!!! That’s it. Except for the Prez taking them out for ice cream. A father taking his ‘tween daughters out for ice cream on a Sat. afternoon. Trot them out!!
Bush never used his children and the only time you saw them was when the media caught them drinking under age.

of course there was that time that they appeared during his campaign. And the cutesy video with their grandma for her birthday. And the Vogue de la Renta cover. But they were probably drinking then, too, so I guess it’s OK.
