Let them get fat and die prematurely. More stuff for the rest of us.

I was told that for the coke machine being available to children and only having soda in it, a monetary fine. I don’t know about any other penalties for non-compliance; however, they hired someone to manage the school lunch program to ensure compliance, so it had to be significant.

Actually it is really Moo’s backdoor scheme to reduce the population of children in this country .... just starve them if they get past the abortion gate! Sort of like Bloomberg’s population control .... if they get past the abortion gate, starve them if their mother doesn’t want or can’t breast feed them.

Quite right.

If you haven't, check out Hillsdale’s Constitution 201. This week's lecture, without exactly saying so, describes the tyranny that is America 2012.

A hundred years after Woodrow Wilson, there really is no reason to vote for Congressmen or Senators. Despite Article I Section 1 of our Constitution, the lawgivers are in the administrative State and untouchable by the voters.

I’ve tasted “Michelle Obama” stype wheat crust pizza from the school. It is pure crap and enough to make one swear off pizza forever.

The white bread and pizza of old would do a number on these kids also. Wheat is wheat.

How about the parents feed their kids rather than the taxpayers. If they can’t afford to feed them, then they shouldn’t have had them.

This entire thing irritates the hell out of me because I was an underweight child all through school.

This one size fits all approach is stupidity,pure and simple.
