When Michelle Obama Starts Starving the Kids

Yet more perspective is gained when you consider that the government’s dietary limitations wouldn’t be out of place in a wartime prison camp. For example, writes PJ Media, “Current regulations limit servings of protein, which could be anything from a hamburger to a side of beans, to 1.5 ounces two days a week and 2 ounces the other three days.”

Historical comparison

• 18th Cent.Royal Navy - 1 lb.(14oz) meat/day.
• 19th Cent. Australian stockman ration allowance 10lb.(160oz.)meat/week

Now the 1.5-2 oz. shouldn't be a whole day's allowance, but that amount's still not more than a snack.

Ha...let’s see how the teenagers in North Dakota survive on 850 calories when the temp goes down to -50.

I must have missed your sarcasm tag.

If you don’t eat your meat you can’t have any pudding!

"If you don’t eat your meat you can’t have any pudding!"

Seriously, how can you have any pudding, if you don't eat your meat?

Snack: Yogurt Variety Local Cantaloupe, Arugula and Prosciutto Salad

Prosciutto! PROSCIUTTO! hahahahahahah!

This is so far-reaching that it is terrifying. Think about it, The Obamas have taken over our local school districts. If they control what our children eat in our districts, where does their power over our kids stop? This is USSR tactics.

The Obamacare ruling says the government may mandate ANYTHING

This would include your shopping list, joining a gym or whatever.

Nope

I would love to see the menu the Obama girls eat at their private $34,000 (?) a year school. I wonder if the White House chef has to pack them a nutritious lunch every day?

[The Working Man]

I just had a interesting thought when I read this article. It might just come to pass that this school lunch initiative and the reducing across the board of calories may do more to cause people to vote against Obama than anything else.

Especially Dem voters who have started to rely on the schools for feeding their broods of welfare kids. Oh heavens no! Now they might have to use those EBT cards to buy real food to feed their hungry MASSIVE boys who are craving tons of food in their teens.

[Tax-chick]

The agenda is not to foster sound minds and bodies. It's the sick who will clamor for Obamacare, not the healthy.

Nailed it!

Thanks.
Obviously some FReepers are better web detectives than me...

Looks impressive, although I did see one item was
“chili mac”

I surely hope Baraq’s kids will be starting in a new school next semester.....

Great post...the government never means well, and these consequences are intended

"We meant well" is wearing thin.
