He must have been bored of talking about the payroll tax. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) was overhead in an airport lounge by a Democratic operative talking about Michelle Obama’s derrière. According to Fishbowl DC, Sensenbrenner was heard speaking into his cellphone, saying he recently responded to a woman who praised the first lady by saying, “She lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself.” Reached for comment, a Sensenbrenner aide told Fishbowl DC "he plans to contact the first lady’s office to apologize for his comments."
