Our president has a dangerous secret – one the liberal media tried to keep hidden until now. Thanks to a muckraking Cornell law professor America has learned that President Obama used Grey Poupon mustard on his hamburger! The horror! I……

What? I hate root beer medium well. It should be rare!

What was he thinking? You can’t even get a root beer medium well at the Charcoal Pit, which is where he grew up! Ugh!

But for hamburgers, I’m a mayo man. In fact, I like to dip french fries in mayo, which annoys most of my family but tastes a lot better than ketchup, which is just too sweet for me.

I’m a mayo man too when it comes to burgers. Ed, have you ever tried dipping your fries in mustard? I do as a change of pace from ketchup, I also like to put a good hot sauce on my fries sometimes, just to spice things up a bit.

But what kind of a fey Hawaiian pansy orders mustard on a hamburger?

O’bama also eats Spam when he’s visiting Hawai’i. That’s the official state food out there and has been since World War 2.

In reality there are some seriously good burgers in the 50th state, like Duane’s Ono Char Burgers on Kauai. The main “condiments” there are teriyaki sauce and blue cheese.

But another major burger place on the island, Bubba’s (which has been there since 1936) proudly advertises that they use French’s mustard on their burgers.

Mustard on your burger = +1. In Texas, failure to do so is a felony. ;-)

I am going to have, errr.. uhhh… just .. ahhh.. just, um, your basic cheddar cheese burger … [dramatic pause]… medium well… uhhh… I just want mustard, no ketchup.

That’s all the comment I think this story deserves.

Not to be outdone, Obama, and Biden went to a burger joint, to do the same thing.

Sounds like Obama had to lower himself to the average Americans level, in order to score points, and out do Republicans. This may answer the question as to why MSNBC covered the story at all.

It certainly can’t be because people actually watch this joke of a network anymore.

TOUCHSTONE: Of a certain knight that swore by his honour they were good pancakes and swore by his honour the mustard was naught: now I’ll stand to it, the pancakes were naught and the mustard was good, and yet was not the knight forsworn.

CELIA: How prove you that, in the great heap of your knowledge?

ROSALIND: Ay, marry, now unmuzzle your wisdom.

TOUCHSTONE: Stand you both forth now: stroke your chins, and swear by your beards that I am a knave.

CELIA: By our beards, if we had them, thou art.

TOUCHSTONE: By my knavery, if I had it, then I were; but if you swear by that that is not, you are not forsworn: no more was this knight, swearing by his honour, for he never had any; or if he had, he had sworn it away before ever he saw those pancakes or that mustard.

Dijon mustard on a burger sounds extremely uppity to me.

Agreed. I like a good Dijon or Gulden’s Spicy Brown more than the next guy, so I don’t fault his choice of mustard. But what kind of a fey Hawaiian pansy orders mustard on a hamburger?

You put fu**ing ketchup on a hamburger, or maybe open pit if you really want to push the envelope. Mustard is right out.

If it’s a hot dog, you put the ketchup in your ear. Mustard is for sausages of every kind, including the dog. Anyone with two nuts knows this.

But for the record — and for the benefit of those who haven’t had a real brat — a good, grilled brat (and do not, do not think that Hillshire Farm makes a ‘real’ brat; hie thee to a Polish deli) — will beat any hot dog, no problemo.

With mustard, of course.

“It’s probably because it’s just mustard.”

Yeap…….

Also some great Creole mustards out of Louisiana. And one of the best mustards I ever tasted was a pineapple flavored mustard from Jamaica.

But for hamburgers, I’m a mayo man. In fact, I like to dip french fries in mayo, which annoys most of my family but tastes a lot better than ketchup, which is just too sweet for me.

Damn northerners. The Canadians are just as bad with their gravy.

When he mixes with the the unwashed he insists on sounding like he has some sort of phoney/jive/southern/ghetto accent. He elides his vowels and drops his “gs”. I expect him to break into a rap any second.

Are people fooled by this? WTF
