The following is a guest post by reader Mario. How the government gets us to agree to raise taxes First, we need an issue that divides the people, an issue that some people feel strongly against, an issue that would be hard pressed to be disputed. The perfect example would be tobacco. Since so...
There’s nothing better than going out to dinner at a place with huge portions. You get to eat your dinner, then bring the leftovers home in a doggy bag for later. It’s like getting two meals for the price of one. Well, if Nanny Michelle has her way, the doggy bag will become a...
Smokers, New York City officials do not want you to visit their city and spend your money there. In their eyes, you’re scum. Smokers have just one message to Mayor Michael Bloomberg and City Council members: butt out of our business. “We’re outside. We should have freedom to smoke,” City Hall Park smoker Harvey Forbes told...
I don’t think Michelle Obama would approve of the lunch Mr. LC dropped off for me. Mmmm! Reuben! So messy I needed to use a knife and fork. Tweetvaso link
America’s newest food cop Michelle Obama is at it again. She said that we can’t just leave the nutritional choices of children up to the parents, and she also called obesity a national security issue. The president weighed in, too, saying he’s following in the footsteps of Lyndon Johnson, and if he didn’t sign...
Don’t tell Michelle Obama that the climate alarmists are now claiming carbon consumption causes obesity. If she finds this out she’ll really put the pressure on President Obama to ramp up his over-regulation of every aspect of our lives. The Telegraph reported from the Cancun summit: The world needs to go on a “fossil...
Michelle Obama championed a “child nutrition” bill that will be a boon to unions and cut food stamps to the poor. In addition, it could signal the end of school bake sales. Heaven forbid moms bake goodies to sell and raise money to make their kids’ school experience a bit more pleasant. We can’t...
Kyle Mills reviewed a new book for the New York Post about the Obama White House written by one of the president’s admirers. The author inadvertently revealed a side of our nanny in chief that perhaps he’d rather you not be aware of. Then again, he just thinks he knows best. In “Revival: The...
Whatever would we do without the government nannies to protect us from makeup? HR 5786 The Safe Cosmetics Act of 2010 was released last week. I’ve had a chance to read through the document multiple times and have huge concerns and questions with the bill as drafted. The entire bill can be downloaded by clicking...
Where is the NYC health department getting the money for signs like this? Isn’t there a budget crisis? John DelSignore writes in the Gothamist: “Few of us would knowingly eat that much sugar in one sitting, let alone feed it to our kids,” abstemious NYC Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Farley said in a statement....
In this video Glenn Beck points out that all of our financial troubles stem from the house crises, as orchestrated by Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Reminder: Senator Chris Dodd engineered the fatal financial reform bill. The entire video is good, but at about 8 minutes-in, it gets really serious....
Welcome to the nanny state, where school district officials believe they know better than parents what’s good for the children. Fox News: Massachusetts parents are angry and dismayed over a public school policy that sees students getting sent home with “fat letters,” myFOXboston.com reported late Friday. Many schools across the state began sending Body...
I’m smart enough to know which foods are good for me and which foods aren’t. I’m also an adult and I can make my own decisions regarding what I put into my body. Apparently, the folks in the White House don’t believe the majority of Americans are smart enough to eat without a Health...
McDonald’s is pushing back against the nannies who want them to rid Happy Meals of toys for children. The nannies say Happy Meals are unhealthy, and using toys as bait is deceptive marketing. McDonald’s isn’t about to back down. Chicago Sun Times: “Internet sites, blogs and network surveys suggest that public opinion is running...
