The one thing that the article does not mention is the way liberals associate fatness with conservative middle America. They are constantly sneering at “fat” Red State yahoos. They are the ones who started calling attention to fat shoppers at Walmart and ridiculing them. Any time you see some Lib cartoon attacking conservatives, they almost always depict the conservative as a fat, ignorant, Southern redneck. In the minds of liberals, “fat” goes hand in hand with stupid and conservative. That is why there is such hatred and why it is as accepted as it is.

I will be the one contrasting what actually happened in the world with what the Bible says: The Arabs named the stars, not God....However they ignore 95% of 75% of their base voters.

That’s true. That’s their perception.

But in the real world there is a higher prevalence of being overweight or obese among black people and latinos (and a few other ethnic groups like Polynesians) than among whites. This is documented in CDC data that is readily available.

These are not demographics that are normally associated with being conservatives.

But if you bring up actual CDC statistics you are automatically a racist (and probably fat too).
