last night...Jeff informed me that President Elect Barack Obama was named a Hero of Health and Fitness by Men's Health Magazine in their latest issue. PEBO eats well, works out six days a week, and looks fit.
sounds great...except for one prudent question: how can a person who wouldn't even be recruited to work at the World Health Organization (because of his smoking habit) be named Hero of Health and Fitness? interesting...
this is not a slight toward PEBO...if he chooses to smoke...it's entirely his decision. in fact, he should be commended for trying to end his two decade old habit. rather, my question is intended to highlight the hypocrisy of Men's Health's choice...they don't even mention PEBO's smoking in the online article...and the irony of a smoker being named Hero of Health and Fitness.
does this mean that i should expect some blogger of the year recognition? i do have 2 dedicated readers...thanks to (future) Dr. J (the wife) and Kevin.

I'm on a roll, one comment per post so I'll keep it.
ReplyDeleteI see your point, though on the other hand he's healthier then likely a large majority of our population and is to this point a very good role model for many Americans.
