Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee took a moment on Tuesday to counter Sarah Palin’s recent claim that Michelle Obama is out to rob children and parents of their rights to eat dessert.

“With all due respect to my colleague and friend Sarah Palin, I think she’s misunderstood what Michelle Obama is trying to do,” Huckabee said Tuesday during a radio appearance the “Curtis Sliwa Show.”

On Sunday’s episode of “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” the state’s former governor quipped on a camping trip that she planned to make her family s’mores “in honor of Michelle Obama, who said the other day we should not have dessert,” an apparent jab at the first lady’s campaign anti-obesity campaign, which does include, among other things, an encouragement that American families attempt to find dessert replacements.
