Deborah Cassidy, director of the DHHS Division of Child Development and Early Education, testified that although the teacher did not violate the state agency’s policy, her division would have recommended the teacher go about implementing it in a more tactful way.

This is a blatant lie. Cassady needs to be fired immediately. This was a GROSS violation of policy, law and everything else, by a bunch of governmnet goons against a child, and this... creature... is defending it as legitimate. She makes me sick.

“Are chicken nuggets deemed to be more nutritious than sliced turkey?” asked Sen. Louis Pate, R-Wayne.

“That’s beyond my expertise,” said Cassidy. “I’d be shooting in the dark on that one,” she added. “I don’t know.”

Later in the hearing, Cassidy explained to the committee that it was her agency’s “responsibility to educate parents” about making healthy, nutritious choices for their children.

She's in charge of nutrition education, but she doesn't know the difference between a home-made turkey sandwich and fused-gunk chicken nuggets? Oh, but it gets better - disagree with one of her goons and she'll steal your child at gunpoint. AND she can openly lie to an investigating committee and fear no reprisals for her utter contempt of any oversight.

This country has gone stark raving mad.

Because the "schools" get more federal money for each child they "feed".
