To quote John Stossel: A government that can control what you eat can control who you have sex with.
And the ultimate intrusion is being told no, you can’t eat that.
Less meat?!
Horrors!
Where would Mooch be without her fried chicken?
It wasn’t Obama.
These same geniuses are now in control of the nation’s healthcare.
With hamburger at $7 a pound red meat consumption is down.
The question is why red meat is that expensive compared to chicken and pork.
Meat = Climate Change * headsmack *
Buy a good Paleo diet book in a store or on Kindle to read about the dangers of the insane veggie diet on our bodies.
Dentists look at the teeth of a new patient and can tell if they are vegan whackos or a balanced diet eater.
On the other hand, Obama is mandating an increase in the amounts of Halal meats for everyone!
So that Oxford study says cutting meat intake by 50% reduces one’s carbon footprint by 35%.
Extrapolated that means going Vegan cuts ones carbon footprint by 70%.
I think we have a new way to challenge Progs on climate change: until they personally pony up by going vegan, they have no cred on the matter.
WTF is a “policy conversation”?
Apparently, even the Obammunists could figure out that if their primary criteria for healthy diet recommendations was unrelated to, and diametrically opposed to, actual human health, the credibility of their dietary recommendations would instantly drop from not very credible anyway to below zero. Not to mention the massive outcry from bazillions of ACTUAL dietary experts would be both deafening and damaging.
Plus, the Obammunists probably realized that such ludicrous recommendations supposedly grounded in “science” would leech over to damage the already shrinking credibility of other claims by the Obammunists which are supposedly grounded in “science”, such as so-called “global warming”.
Basically, even the Obammunists realized basing dietary recommendations on the theory of global warming was a bridge too far.
And remember, if meat was outlawed, only outlaws would have meat.
Big deal...Michelle has already taken any decent meat out of our childrens meals.
I have a question. If plants take CO2 from the air and replace it with O2, and cow farts are helping to cause AGW, and vegans and cows both eat plants exclusively, then doesn’t it make sense that eating as many cows as possible and having as few vegans as possible would be good for the environment?
He’ll just make it unaffordable for most of us. The elite will still get their waygu.
I want to dedicate this thread to Steak and Bacon.
This mantra that cows are polluting is bull crap. They base it on either dairy cattle or feed lot cattle. Most cattle spend a rather short time in a feed lot. As with their climate model, the numbers are skewed toward their agenda.

A “war on meat” would not be successful in Texas. It’s beef country!
Wagyu beef, anyone?
