Well then, I guess Mooch DOES want to ban your bake sale.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Nice try, WaPo.
Guess we should follow your consistently inane logic and blame W, eh?
The MSM - for when your low grades will not get you any other job.
When Moochelle breaks wind, Gail Sullivan’s cheeks puff up.
She’s Outlawing all bake goods ?
She has no office, she has no power, she has no authority
Isn’t pretending to be a government official a crime?
While we can all debate how many cupcakes we should eat, it is a huge step to say the federal government will regulate your local school bake sale.
Things like this could be huge campaign issues for the GOP. Democrats are in favor of micro managing our lives, while true conservatives are in favor of personal responsibility and personal freedoms. In this case, conservatives would take the position that your local school officials and PTA will decide what products to sell at their bake sales.
Sounds like common sense to me. But let’s get out there and make the case for conservative principles as they apply to situations such as this.
” New rules requiring healthier foods in public schools took effect July 1 as a result of the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act passed in 2010. They set nutrition standards for all food and drink sold during the school day, including “competitive foods” — government language for vending machine snacks and bake-sale goodies.
The standards, which dictate how much fat and sugar food sold on school grounds can contain, do extend to snacks sold as fundraisers. “
yes, you can do a bake sale, but with spinach tofu cassarole and Sugar free carboard muffins made with 30% post consumer content....
If I ran a school I would have a high fat/sugar bake sale every damned single month to replace all federal funding just to spite her meddling arse...
The world is falling apart and they argue over cupcake sales ???
Is this another of those lame “don’t blame her for a law she championed and lobbied to be passed because she’s just a private citizen” articles?
What is healthy hunger? People who speak English want to know. (Directed at the article - not you!)
Michelle Antoinette says “let them eat arugula”.
IIRC BOTH the House, and the Senate belonged to the Democrats in 2010 when the legislation was passed for this constitutionally questionable law, as well the First Wookie along with her husband the play acting President initiated the support for the bill.
How in the ‘H’ can this author possibly write such BS?....nevermind, she’s a Democrat. THEY can say anything they want to.
Uh, sounds to ME like the Obama Fascists DO want to control our food.
This is not a function of the federal government.
Shove it Michelle.
Regardless what FDR's activist justices wanted everbody to think about the scope of Congress's Commerce Clause powers in Wickard v. Filburn, a previous generation of Constitution-respecting justices had clarified that the states have never delegated to Congress, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate intrastate commerce.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
As a side note concerning the federal government's constitutionally limited powers, please consider the following. The states would sure be a dull, boring place to grow up and live in if parents were to make sure that their children were taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood. /sarc
Thomas Jefferson had put it this way:
“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
In fact, forget about traditional salesman / sucker cliches like "buying the Brooklyn Bridge." Voters now have to deal with the problem that they have foolishly traded their votes for constitutionally nonexistent rights, federal spending programs and restrictive federal regulations which are likewise based on constitutionally nonexistant federal government powers.
I'm guess my school is far from the only one...
tell me again, what is the basis of her power to tell people to do anything?
