One of the SC justices main arguments against obamacare is that it would give the govt. the power to make people buy broccoli. Looks like the govt. already has that power. So that argument goes out the window.

What is sick is when you see supposedly republicans smiling while they pass this imposition saying “now we will finally see our kids eat healthy” as if we should somehow be thankful for the dictates they are shoving down our throats.

Gee Thanks masters I would never have figured out how to live healthy if you didn’t FORCE me to do it... *rolls eyes*

All you can do is take names, primary them, and if their bad enough let the traitor fall before the democrats in the general.

“When we will stop these cretins?”

They better be stopped on the first Tuesday of November 2012, or there might not be another chance....

Notice it passed in the House during a LAME DUCK session. Pretty awful for them to do anything then, especially considering the massive change in the House after the 2010 election.

you can't fine a child fcol they have no income

I was in the supermaket the other day and a young lady asked my help with finding some tortillas. She had a list in her hand and pointed out that she had to buy ‘whole wheat’ tortillas.

At first I thought it was just a handwritten shopping list and maybe she was picking up some things for a neighbor, but then I got a better look at the list. I was a printed list, from the gubment, that told her she couldn't buy corn tortillas or (white) flour tortillas, she had to buy whole-wheat. Milk had to be a specific kind. Bread had to be whole-wheat. This juice but not that juice. And on and on and on.

I suddenly felt sorry for her, that even a small choice - what type tortilla she bought, or even what kind of cottage cheese, had already been made for her by some bureaucrat

We managed to find a bag of whole-wheat tortillas after a minute or so of rummaging thru all the corn and white tortillas. I wished her well.

8/5/2010 Passed/agreed to in Senate: Passed Senate with an amendment by Unanimous Consent.

12/2/2010 Passed/agreed to in House: On passage Passed by recorded vote: 264 - 157 (Roll no. 603).

This was one of the last acts of a session where the Democrats had overwhelming majorities in the House and in the Senate, and the Kenyan Clown occupied the Oval Office.

It was also one of the worst acts by one of the worst sessions in history — it came during the lame duck session after the massive shellacking the Democrats took in the November 2010 election.

It's hard to believe, though, that not one Republican Senator bothered to vote against this disgusting legislation.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself) The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Wonder how brown baggers are affected?

We've already seen this example.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2846603/posts

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Many stories seem to link “Modern” wheat as a cause of today’s obesity and other medical problems. It is also hard to avoid the wheat which is added into many products.

I have to admit that my wife was right. She insisted on sending our kids to Catholic school. I went to pubik skools and they learned me goodly.

I grew up on the mean streets of outer whitelandia and the schools were ok.

But I love the fact that there is a vending machine in the lunchroom. Genetics. My son is trying to gain weight but he is hopelessly skinny.

I used to drink weight gainer shakes.
