According to Linn’s Stamp News, the US Postal Service has now been forced to destroy the entire run of stamps based on Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” initiative.
That’s because three of the stamps showed children doing unsafe activities: one showed a child jumping cannonball-style into water; a second showed a child skateboarding without kneepads; a third showed a child doing a headstand without a helmet.
The President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition had not approved the stamps, but were only made aware of the problem after Nagisa Manabe, USPS marketing chief, asked Michelle Obama to take part in the ceremony inaugurating the initiative.

What else can they screw up?
I have performed all 3 of these acts time and again as a child, and was never injured once by doing them! I know, I'm amazing. Really, you can stop applauding now. No, really, please! It's just that I'm so cool. You other kids... better not try this at home. No, really, I Double Dog Dare ya!
BAN YOGA! They don't wear helmets when doing headstands! It's unhealthy!
(Shaking head...without a helmet.)
Finally some common sense in DC. Our future lil commie might bump his head.
If you can't use common sense or act like a normal person then die. I just read a warning label on peanut butter. PEANUT BUTTER how stupid are we?
Maybe the postal service doesn't like having to grovel to the king for $$$ and decided instead to reward the queen with NO release of Omama stamps.
Helmets? Maybe somebody should put one on Michelle's big butt...that is a definite dangerous thing!
