So what if the decline in childhood obesity started in 2003, seven years before Michelle Obama announced the Let’s Move! initiative. If you question the FLOTUS-is-responsible-for-all-good-things narrative, you’re nothing more than an anti-science moron. So says Media Matters “Senior Fellow” Eric Boehlert:
brainiacs at @twitchyteam claim child obesity rate started falling a "decade ago" so FLOTUS gets no credit; http://t.co/VMiPdPlB8T #science

Serious question: Does Boehlert know he’s peddling junk science or does he actually believe the garbage he writes?
