I can't embed the videos and the article continues, but the information is important as you'll recognize how the Obama administration is "nudging" Americans using diet and health, among other things. Thaler & Sunstein have mapped out how to move America into conforming to the Left's desires and Moochelle is willingly helping to implement the plan. If you haven't read Nudge I suggest you pick up a copy....scary to read when looking at the Obama administration's actions over the past two years.

Believe it or not one biblical duty of a government is to “praise those who do good.” Instead of pushing his or his wife’s own autocratic ideas, Mr. Obama ought to be pointing to private successes in dietetic research as good examples. One might point out, also, that there is no constitutional office of “presidential spouse.” Michelle is not the Queen of America.

This article should be titled “Is Cass Sunstein Advising Michelle Obama?”

Oh, Liz is refering to this...

Eight Commandments of the Statist/Marxist Left

I Thou shalt create an illusion of invulnerability shared by most members to foster excessive optimism and encourage extreme risks taking

II Thou shall not allow any member to question the group’s inherent morality, instead members shall be encouraged to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions

III Thou shalt promote collective efforts to rationalize in order to discount warnings, or other information that might lead members to reconsider their assumptions before they recommit themselves to their assumptions

IV Thou shalt reinforce stereotyped views of enemy leaders as too evil to warrant genuine attempts to negotiate, or as too weak and stupid to counter whatever risky attempts are made to defeat their purpose

V Thou shalt self-censor any deviation from the apparent group consensus, inclining each member to minimize the importance of their doubts and counterarguments

VI Thou shalt create and maintain a shared illusion of unanimity concerning judgement conforming to the majority view

VII Thou shalt apply direct pressure on any member who expresses strong arguments against any of the group’s stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, making clear that this type of dissent is contrary to what is expected of all loyal members

VIII Thou shalt appoint mindguards to protect the group from adverse information that might shatter their shared complacency about the effectiveness and morality of their decisions

Sunstein is the current White House Czar for Information and Regulatory Affairs who believes the First Amendment should be reformulated, pets should be granted legal standing to sue their owners and who professes, "There is no liberty without dependency."

Truly the most dangerous man in America and second in the world only to Soros!

When does the GIve act 1388 go into effect? It passed then I never heard it mentioned again.
