Hefty lefty happier with Happy Meals

From the NY Post:

McDonald’s fiercest critic on the City Council is becoming as soft as a sesame-seed bun when it comes to the hamburger conglomerate.

Councilman Leroy Comrie (D-Queens) stood shoulder-to-shoulder with McDonald’s execs yesterday at the chain’s outpost in Cambria Heights, Queens, to tout the latest version of the Happy Meal, which comes with apple slices, fewer fries and less calories.

The portly politician, whose wife said he weighs around 335 pounds, said the move by McDonald’s to slim down the Happy Meal means his threat to ban fast-food joints from giving out toys in children’s meals worked.

“You know, it was never an absolute ban. It was more of an encouragement for people to do better,” Comrie said.

“McDonald’s is taking the lead, but we have other service restaurants that we’re still looking at.”

And the funny part was that instead of money, McDonalds bribed him with free food for life!

I remember meeting him in person once. It was a miracle he had the wind to get out of his car. He needs to put the cheeseburgers down first.

Someone buy him a support bra! Happy Meals are supposed to make people happy. Looks like he is -- Fat & Happy.

One of the few things I miss about living in NYC is the restaurants. Why anyone would eat in a McDonald's in NY is beyond me. A Broadway show & dinner at a fine establishment was the way to go. Down here (Kent Island, MD) fast food rules. I have to go to Baltimore for decent food. Enjoy what you've got. Long live Israel! Long live my amazing NYC pension! Death to the Palestinians!Long live Queens Crapper!

Two years ago Comrie says he was going on a diet. He looks even fatter today. Leroy, what happened? You may need surgery, my bro. Like Al Rokker.
