Up against the wall kid! What do you have in that lunch box?
The Orange County Register blog Orange Punch ^ | 2-16-2012 | Mark Landsbaum

... A child’s mother sent the kid, a preschooler mind you, to school with a turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips and apple juice.

Is there any conceivable grounds here for government intervention? No? Think again.

Bauer reports that the lunch from home “failed the mandatory lunch inspection”...

I have seen this story posted in numerous places this week and every time I see it I flip-out. It has to be in the top 3 most egregious government intervention stories of the past year.

WTF is wrong with these people?

Yes, we’re all aware.

Has your blog got some new info or a unique perspective on this?

Maybe you should post that part here, so that no one needs to visit your blog.

Then excerpt the rest of the stuff we already knew.

“I’ve got Love in my Lunch Box!”

The USDA does not approve that.

People are told government at every level wants to control and regulate everything we do, and some drooling in cups are just unable to see it.

It’s become inordinately clear, those running government at all levels, are extremely controlling individuals.

I very much dislike those who attempt to control others.

I’m glad this was posted.

Considering the punitive level of control government now has at all levels, this should probably be posted every day for the next month.

Coincidentally, the leftists are spinning this entire story as being “bogus”....and are using this guy as their “”proof””.

Looks to me like they are just trying to cover their @ss after the fact, per usual.

One look in the garbage cans in these government approved cateterias will show half the government approved meals thrown away. I guess they will have to force feed the kids who refuse to eat all of the government “nutrition.”

Sure, let’s all do the following:

1) Start our own blogs to regurgitate stories.

2) Demand to be on the FR excerpt only list.

3) Instead of bumping other threads, we all start our own threads, post one measly sentence, and demand that FReepers give us hits.

4) Forgot to mention, we should do this under two different names.

5) And then never reply to posts.

6) Use FR to get hits and let the servers get overworked while FReepers dig deep to keep the blogpimps in business.

We can all get rich!

Right Landsbaum?

Landsbaum?

Admin, a question.

What are the rules regarding blogpimping under two different screen names.

Especially by blogpimps that demand to be on the FR excerpt list but pimp their wares multiple times DAILY.

Should I double my monthly donations so accommodate the multiple identity multiple daily thread blogpimps? I can give up another meal per week if you like. Probably wouldn’t hurt.
