I think she was added as a joke and to show that the Dems do include Jews. She has zero chance of winning.

Then I suggest you refrain from using any and all corporations, Monsanto products, pharmaceuticals - especially when you get your first exposed nerve during a dental exam - or GMO foods and leave the rest of us “spiritually broken” folks alone.

oh BOVINE EXCREMENT!

There are genetic tests that show that some families have a predisposition to have cancer, heart problems, and yes diabetes...sans ANY and ALL outside influences.

Then there is the fact that the two WORST eating segments of our populace are either the trendy "FOODIES", and those who mostly rely on chains for their meals most of the time and/or just buy and eat nothing but processed meat ( hot dogs and the like )boxed mac&cheese, etc.! Cooking home made meals from scratch? Oh don't be silly...that's NOT what they do.

None of the above is my fault, nor is it the Federal government's!

Re the ILLEGAL INVADING HORDE...I want not only the wall, but gun towers, and buried bombs across our Southern border, another way on our Northern border and ankle bracelets on everyone who comes here on a tourist/school/work Visa, with them rounded up and deported, forthwith should they overstay!

And the 40 million who have been living here illegally? Track them all down, round 'em up, put them on ships and dump 'em!

WOW...seems like only yesterday that your boys were bitty!

But then, my grandson starts 8th grade in a few months and I'm sure that you think of him as being a baby. LOL

The whole St. Armands trip is a distaster and as for parking...PAID METERS NOW, WITH A CREDIT CARD? Trying to figure out how to do that, in the pouring rain is horrific; especially whilst standing in what should be the street, but now is a damned lake!

Please remember me to your lovely wife.

We agree on illegals, disagree on food.

Our DNA didn’t suddenly just get massively worse. And the government has pushed cheap simple carbs via its stupid pyramid and the like, as well as its ag subsidies. Its biased research too. Its permitting of poisons in agriculture has indeed poisoned our soil and food supply.

You have NO idea what you're talking about at all and...your weak kneed apoloigia for this nation's "weaknesses", is worse than Obama's damned world wide APOLOGY TOUR.

Of FIRST WORLD Nations, the Uk ( mostly alcholoism, but also dope), Russia ( same as the UK ), France ( prescription ills and dope), and Slovakia are far worse off than the USA. Also on the list of the worst are Mexico, Iran ( not really a First World nation ), Afghanistan,and the Scandinavian nations are not doing well at all! And actually Sweden was REALLY a druggie heaven long before the Muslim INVADERS came, back in the '70z-early '80s, when that whole nation made the likes of "NEEDLE PARK", on the Upper West Side, of Manhattan look like a "NO DOPE ZONE"!

And FYI...opioids aren't the ONLY drugs killing people here; lots and lots of dopers are strung out on heroin, and other garbage; you just are unaware of that, I guess.

Thankfully there are, but sadly, fewer and fewer now, than in years past. :-(

Now we have a bunch of propagndized and brain washed babblers who post a lot, but what they post is mostly NOT factual at all.

Oh for crying out loud...please, please, PLEASE do a study on the history of food ( it's a fascinating topic! )and what people have been eating and eating off of, from time immemorial. Your eyes WILL be opened and you'll have a different view of things.

Right now, your posts are filled with far lefty cant.

Agree with you but most FReepers won’t. Most of our illnesses come from us as a people, as an individual / family, not caring enough for ourselves to eat or live with regard to thriving health. We are influenced by ads and popular opinion and fake tastes.

U.S. Life Expectancy Drops for 3rd year in a row. Yes we are living longer in general historically speaking, but any drop - however slight, is still worth careful reflection and examination.

All of the food you mention, including the chains, were never meant to be absolute staples in people’s kitchens. And yet lazy - as well as people who have two or three jobs and have little time or energy to cook - came to reply on these things as a steady diet. That, plus the lack of exercise has caused the obesity epidemic and subsequent ills. Not the government, not agribusiness, not Monsanto or Mickey D’s. We’ve apparently lost the ability to make decisions for ourselves and so must constantly seek out others to blame. And you see it on the Right more than ever.

Suicides and murders in da hood shorten our life spans stats.

Are you aware of the fact that the USA and ONLY the USA counts miscarriages AND abortions in those death/life expectancy stats? If not...now you are!

Well, I can’t argue in any way that lobbying isn’t effective. Money does talk to politicians.

In the main, I guess the less power over our lives we give politicians, the less is there to be bought!

EXACTLY SO...AND IN SPADES!

All of what I posted and then throw in the takes outs from different restaurants, frozen ready made meals, and all of the snacking that some people do, INSTEAD of actually eating a REAL meal.

We're being sermonized by a Millennial, who doesn't know anything at all about the history of food, nor even how and what Americans ate prior to their births. And others who are just posting Hippie/OWS/Anti-Capitalist crap!

Nor is anyone talking about the "fashion" of thin V fat V body reshaping through underwear and through surgery and such. And all of these things are world wide and from time immemorial fetishes.

We've apparently managed to lower several generations' IQs to the IDIOT level. Now, they're reduced to parroting whatever they hear or might see on line, WITHOUT actually doing any research at all AND the little snowflakes will argue till their own deaths, about how YOU are wrong and they're right! LOL
