senbrenner sent a note of apology Thursday to Michelle Obama for referring to her “large posterior” and “big butt,” his spokesperson told POLITICO.

Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) was overheard talking about the first lady’s healthy food initiative — and her “large posterior” — on Wednesday in the Delta Crown lounge at Reagan National Airport, FishbowlDC reported. The representative was recounting a recent conversation he’d had at a Wisconsin Episcopal church and said loudly on the phone that Obama “lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself,” according to Fishbowl.

On Thursday, Sensenbrenner said in a statement, “I regret my inappropriate comment and I have sent a personal note to the first lady apologizing.”

Sensenbrenner had made his initial comment about the first lady at St. Aidan’s Episcopal Church in Hartford, Wis. on Dec. 10. Ann Marsh-Meigs, a 72-year-old member of the church, said the congressman sat with her and several other parishioners for some small talk during the church’s Christmas bazaar.

Then, he noticed cards on the table advertising the church’s upcoming food-packing project for Haiti and began speaking about a recent charity event in Washington his wife and Michelle Obama attended. Sensenbrenner commented that the first lady only stayed as long as the photographers were there.

“And then he got on the topic of first ladies and their special interests, and he said most first ladies have serious projects,” Marsh-Meigs said in an interview. “He implied that Michelle Obama being interested in childhood obesity was not serious, he sort of made fun of it and then he made fun of her. He said something like, look at her big butt.”

Marsh-Meigs, who also shared her account of the discussion with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, said she was appalled by the congressman’s comment and told him she thought Obama was a “beautiful and elegant woman.”

“How dumb can you be? I think it’s stupid to talk like that, it’s really rude — it’s the president’s wife,” Marsh-Meigs told POLITICO. “He just assumed everyone sitting at the table would agree with him and think it was funny. I didn’t think it was the least bit funny, and there was sort of a stunned silence. I said, ‘I think Michelle is a beautiful and elegant woman, and she dresses beautifully.’”

Sensenbrenner, Marsh-Meigs said, “sort of backpedaled, and got up rather quickly and left.” A friend of Marsh-Meigs confronted Sensenbrenner as he made his exit and “told him off.”

Marsh-Meigs said she wasn’t surprised by the press Sensenbrenner has received for his remark. “If he hadn’t said such a rude thing, nothing would have happened,” she said.

Norwegian Butter Crisis Escalates as Swedes Arrested in Smuggling Scheme
The grim situation in Scandinavia worsened over the weekend as the Norwegian government, attempting to cling to power in the face of a severe butter shortage, arrested two Swedes who’d been attempting to smuggle 550 pounds of butter over the border.

Americans have so far largely ignored the crisis developing in the Nordic countries: a faddish low-carb, high-fat diet, a bad year for dairy production, and the vicious and violent nature of life in the frozen north have combined to create a severe lack of butter—even as Scandinavians are gearing up for their most-celebrated holiday, “Christmas.”

As always, in the face of such a crisis, a black market has emerged:

The two men, who snuck into the country from Sweden, were arrested with about 550 lbs of butter divided into 18-ounce packets, the Norwegian daily newspaper Adresseavisen reported.

[…]

“They have confessed that they have bought butter in Sweden to sell at a profit in Norway,” legal counsel Amund Sand told the Adresseavisen.

Meanwhile, unconfirmed reports of butter-hoarding warlords in the north of Norway have emerged as authorities remain unwilling to even estimate the number of deaths the crisis has caused.

ASK ME NO QUESTYAHANZ

MEMPHIS, TN –
(WMC-TV) – Parishioners at New Salem Missionary Baptist Church watched as a brawl broke out right in the middle of service and now the police have launched an investigation.

A fight between two women near the church’s choir section turned into a brawl between the two families, according to a police report. When officers arrived, only three people from the brawl were left and they’re all listed as both suspects and victims.

The police report tells two versions of what happened Sunday.

Police took photos of three church members’ injuries, but the photos haven’t been released.

At the center of the altercation are Beverly Milam, her nemesis Terry Bell, and Bell’s daughter Charra Lumpkin.

Bell and Milam agree on one thing: the fight began with a verbal confrontation at Bible study last Wednesday.

Milam said she told Bell to “stop sleeping with somebody” and then she said Bell got in her face.

Fast forward to first Sunday at New Salem.

Bell said she was walking from the choir stand during service around 1 p.m. when Milam approached her and said “Are you going to do something today?”

Bell said she replied she was “not going to get involved in something at the church.”

At that point, Bell’s daughter, Lumpkin, got between the two women.

But a Communion Day cat fight still followed.

The two women at the center of the fight have different versions of how the blows began.

Bell claims Milam struck her daughter.

Milam claims Bell’s friend “Angel” struck her in the face with an umbrella.

At that point, family members jumped in.

Milam said someone “grabbed her by the back of her hair” and “threw her to the ground.”

When officers arrived, they had to separate the women.

The police report says Bell suffered scratch marks to her neck and upper chest and her daughter had scratch marks to the neck, upper chest and left side.

Milam has a slightly swollen and bloodshot right eye.

Paramedics treated Milam at the church while Bell and Lumpkin refused medical attention

All parties involved said this has been an ongoing problem for several years and they all want to prosecute and Memphis police say charges could follow.

The church declined to comment on the matter and neither Milan and Lumpkin wanted to talk about what happened.

Bell has not returned Action News 5’s call.

And despite rumors, no one in church leadership threw any punches on first Sunday.
