I think this school system got what it paid for. What did they expect intelligent to come out of this man?

Let me be the first to say that eating nothing but McDonalds meals for 30 days is enough to turn anyone into a retard.

Well, they ordered a drive-by McProgram, and that is what they got.

"It is never my intent to insult or demean anyone - and I understand how some of my remarks may have offended some in attendance and if you feel they did, then I am deeply sorry,"

IF?????

Why the hell can't people just apologize instead of making caveats all the time.

[SlowBoat407]

I understand how some of my remarks may have offended some in attendance and if you feel they did, then I am deeply sorry,

Whatever happened to: "I regret what I said. It hurt people. For that, I apologize." He gave the standard "no harm, no foul" apology.

Although some in attendance believe Spurlock commented on "retarded kids in the back wearing helmets," he said in his blog that he only referred to himself as retarded and that the comment about helmets was meant as a "slacker reference" to a character in the upcoming film "Benchwarmers."

Weasel.

Morgan Spurlock your fifteen minutes is long gone.

[Clock King]

He's a well-funded, well-educated Leftist. They got what they paid for.

Background Info

Hired to speak at the school's 'first-ever' health fair.

The school apparently has money to burn.

[AmericaUnite]

My son who is a special education student had to watch part of this movie in health class with the regular ed kids. I called the teacher to tell him this film has a political agenda and I don't like it. He got my point and said only parts of the film would be shown. It was for a lesson on healthy eating.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Spurlock is a tool of the left...


...but mostly he's just a tool.

"Having done work with special needs children in the past, something this hurtful would never come from my lips," he wrote.

And yet it did.

Frankly, the school got what they paid for. If they didn't know this guy was a jerk, they just have not been paying attention.

You hire a jerk to make a speech, he's going to say stupid things. DUH!

[HitmanLV]

Spurlock hasn't gotten over his dud of a tv show crashing & burning a while back. He is a low talent.

I have seen Super Size Me and felt he was nothing more than a leftist with an agenda. However, he did make some VERY good points in his documentary, once that it is hard to deny.

I do have a problem with foods served in most public schools especially when there are few choices but high fat, high carb, high sugar meals. Nobody can deny we do not have an epidemic of overweight children and adults in our country.

However, making a point of our public school lunch programs by eating every meal for 30 days at McDonald's is well ridiculous.

Anyone who is stupid enough to eat that trash food only each day of their life deserves to die of a heart attack at 30 and any parent who would allow their child to eat nothing but McDonald's deserves a solid trashing. Most people however do not eat the food even close to the amount he stuffed in his face.

I'm not surprised he insulted people during his presentation. After all, he is among the liberal elite. Those who look down upon anyone who doesn't follow in lock-step with their agenda. When facts fail you, insults work is the motto of the left.
