I.e., she's not an ambulance-chaser, she's a grievance-chaser.
LOL yeah right. Not this government!
“This reaction strikes me as infantile.”
Seems to me she’s the infantile one - she’s so helpless and stupid she needs the government to tell her what she must feed her kids.
STFU Mardi and get out of the way. You lose.

She’s a babbling cliche. And she’s unreadable.
“Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain.” ― Frédéric Bastiat, The Law
This is not to be dismissed as a child's tantrum as she does. It is not to be marginalized as an incoherent expression of frustration at a world we do not understand. We understand it all too well.
She needs a cheese burger and a double order of fries. That’ll settle her down. It works for the wookie.
And they are poo poo heads and I hate them!
Pray America wakes up
Excuse me, but I thought Potatoes fell into the "fruits and vegetables" category.
This is why the nonpartisan, scientific Institute of Medicine, which advises on WIC standards, has cautioned that white potatoes should not be included in the WIC program.
Even the "scientific" Institute of Medicine should know the above.
Let's put it this way. Every year, medical "misfortune" kills over 100,000 people in a country believed to have one of the best systems of medical care in the world.
How many children have died of 'Big Mac poisoning", have been 'supersized' to death, ate too many cupcakes and succumbed? Even the annual candy orgies of Halloween and Easter fail to flood emergency rooms with critical care patients OD'd on sugary orange pumpkins or jelly beans and chocolate bunnies.
It turns out that people, given choices, will eat what they crave. For some, that will be sugar, for others red meat, for others yet a variety of vegetables, and for many, some combination, often balanced by what tastes good.
Just as not two people are exactly alike, their nutritional requirements will vary, from month to month, even day to day, depending on a number of factors from age, activity level, climate, genetics, and pregnancy, to name a few.
The idea that someone, somewhere else, who knows neither me nor my life, can somehow concoct a set regime of nutritional requirements which will keep me healthy in all circumstances, with no knowledge of the individual requirements of my physiology is patently insane.
The idea of such a regimen being imposed by fiat or law is repugnant at best, and deserving of outright defiance as a matter of principle.
Turned on the local news tonight for just a few minutes. After one minute it was time for a commercial break - 7 commercials as a matter of fact. Four of them centered around exercise and what to eat - including a plate of vegetables. It’s just non-stop on all the cooking programs, everywhere. This is getting worse than the non-stop campaign commercials we were getting two weeks ago.
Couldn’t even stand to leave it on long enough to catch the weather. Enough already!
As always, confusion rules the left.
What’s good to eat is one question.
Who can tell you what to eat is an entirely different question.
Learn the difference and try to keep more alert, Mardi.
Lefties hate that Obama critics looked at the menu of Sidwell Friends and then questioned Michelle O’s healthy meal menu for everyone in public school.
This op-ed is par for the course in idiot Lefty rhetoric.
She’s a simplistic moron
**But for me, the Tea Party has absolutely jumped the shark...**
Let me clue you into something, Mardi. No one cares what you think.
There’s always something standing between socialists and utopia. In Illinois a century of Democratic control has failed to give us a land of milk and honey. Who is to blame?
People who refuse to pay more in taxes, rich people, productive people, Washington DC, other states with lower taxes and lower regulations, etc.
I think we've heard that song before:
United forever in friendship and labour,Or maybe some medieval dirges or something foreboding like Carmina Burana.
Our mighty republics will ever endure.
The Great Soviet Union will live through the ages.
The dream of a people their fortress secure.
"... been frustrating to those of us who believe that government can play a positive and valuable part in the lives of the citizenry."
The author has evidently never been taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers. More specifically, the only specific power that the states have delegated to the feds, via the Constitution, to continually regulate an aspect of intrastate life for private citizens is the US Mail, evidenced by the Constitution's Clause 7 of Section 8 of Article I.
Otherwise, several historical constitutional experts, including a justice, have clarified that the well-being of a state's citizens is up to the 10th Amendment-protected legislative powers of the state that a citizen is living in, not the federal government.
In fact, Justice John Marshall had officially clarified that only the states, not the federal government, can lay taxes for most of the "government" services that many citizens are now receiving from the corrupt federal government.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
This community blogger is thrashing about looking for someone or something to pin blame on for the leadership failures of his hero Obama.
Are Tea Party criticisms of Obamacare the cause of its unpopularity and failure? No. Obama and his people own it. But this blogger won’t face that reality. If it’s not Bush’s fault, then it must be the Tea Party’s fault.
Blogger is lightweight amateur trying to look like a bigtime commentator, almost like a Chrissie Matthews mini-me.
