You my local “Independent School District” should follow federal diktats?

How about we get the federal government out of the schools period.

BO—why don’t you just worry about Malia and Sasha and leave the rest of the nation’s kids to their own parents.
Sugar and candy are not illegal products and kids have consumed them for over a century here in the USA. Bug off tyrant!

We’ve had free breakfast for everyone for ever and most kids are already on free or reduced lunch. Of course, mine pay full price. Any wonder why I can hardly pay our property taxes?

Never saw a vending machine in grade school or high school. Yes. I am that old. I don’t see where it’s necessary for education.

But, how about letting my local school board work all that out and the federales find something else to work on? Like terrorists.

Geesh, you'd think with the Iran threat he'd have more important things to worry about.

He's not qualified to fill vending machines!

WE ARE BROKE. We have no money to “expand” the school lunch and breakfast programs. Stop spending money we don’t have.

Obama knows liberal/moderate soccer moms eat this kind of thing up. No pun intended.

This should be a local decision. I thought that’s what elected school boards were for and why the GOP should call it DOA. Enough of bambi’s Politburo.

My grandson in NY does swapping...and does very well. My grandson in CT doesn't do as well with his soy crap.

P.S. Obama doesn't know the schools get a cut.

This is great for conservatives...

1) Look if you take those machines out of schools the schools are going to lose money, either taxes will have to be raised or services will need to be cut because of big government

2) Prime example of how the FED will beat you with the stick that was used to give you a carrot..
