Michelle Obama: ‘Competitive Foods
in School Should Be Limited

Cybercast News Service, by Penny Starr

The website promoting First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” initiative to combat childhood obesity advises parents to limit “opportunities for children to purchase competitive foods.” The website warns parents about “competitive food” – food available to children on campus that falls outside of the federally regulated cafeteria food. “Foods and beverages provided through school breakfast, lunch and afterschool snack programs must meet certain nutritional rules to receive federal money,” the website states. “However, kids can purchase non-nutritious foods in place of these meals. Many schools sell foods outside of the USDA school meals–

This woman is as bad as her Marxist husband. Her constant diktats are beyond disturbing. Who made her Queen?

Yep, starting down that slippery path - the 'solution' to a non-existent problem doesn't work, so they pass more rules and regulations and laws to compel humans to do what they want them to do. And the fluff-headed libtards (but I repeat myself) claim conservatives are coercive - but that's just projection. When do they close the borders to egress and start shooting people who want to escape, as in the soviet union, north korea, china, etc.

They are dangerous people, and the sooner every libtard is gone from this country the better off we'll be.

Tell this woman to stay out of the school lunch kitchen. At first she was annoying, but now she is disgustingly out of line.

Lots of luck, Madam Queen. You are really pushing it now. I can see those kids you've been courting and hugging - the ones you have urged to get their parents and voting age relatives to vote for her hubby - putting pressure on their parents to vote for ABO. Anybody But Obama.

Another exploding cigar for the Obots.

Obviously the woman has some psychological issues with here own obesity. Sadly she is taking them out on innocent children. The childhood obesity crisis is just another manufactured myth to create a sense of crisis and further excuse federal intrusion into our daily lives. Enough! Stop starving innocent children!

I am really getting tired of this homely, wide beamed know it all. Who the hell is she to tell anyone what they can eat!? She has a butt the size of an 18 wheeler and a husband who likes to sneak cigarettes. The two of them like to eat Kobe beef on our tab and Zippy likes his beer and fries. Why don't you worry about your own huge butt and your husband's junk food addiction Moochie?!

It is obvious that she is trying to get her agenda crammed down our throats before they get kicked out of the WH next month. Maybe if she had spent less time on vacations she would have had time to really do something about childhood obesity.

"Let the market decide."

Neither she or her husband has even a fundamental understanding of free enterprise. It's like they've spent their whole lives "chooming" and community-organizing, or something...

How about she get real serious about this and have her hubby sign an executive order that fat kids can only have dry salad and water for lunch? Or how about an executive order that fat families on food stamps can only buy fruits and veggies but no fats or carbs? Isn't this what she's really aiming for?


Reply 12 - Posted by: Attercliffe, 10/2/2012 12:54:26 PM     (No. 8904382)

The term "competitive foods" troubles me (besides everything else about this idiocy). Is this also a subtle means of informing children that competition is bad?

Working as a volunteer for a food co-op I saw the co-op board vote to add soft white sliced bread to the inventory because the neighborhood (read "food desert") customers refused to buy the healthier breads--they simply didn't like it and didn't want to have to cut the slices. Instead, they bought it at a convenience store a block away. There were other changes to fit neighborhood preferences, one of which was "regular" milk, as opposed to more expensive organic milk. I can't remember what else.

It sounds as if there will be a wide "no-sell zone" around schools. Nobody over 18 will be allowed to buy anything but tofu, tofurkey, plain, fat-free yogurt and other delicacies that many people abhor. I expect to see junk food trucks parked on an ever-widening perimeter and students acting as bootleggers.

So, what we'll have is students who avoid competition, who have minds that circumvent any law (like drug-free zones around schools--same thing to a student) and who bake chocolate chip cookies each night to sell just outside the competitive-food-free zone at school the next day. Don't be surprised if they begin to make bathtub gin too.

What a thoroughly undeveloped sense of consequence is shared by this woman and her spouse.

Why not force food stamp users to buy only healthy food. Let's limit what can be bought with food stamps to vegetables, fruits, and tofu.. Then you will see the obese rate drop in this country and a big drop in food stamp usage.

Since schools seemed charged to churn out as many 'useful idiots' as possible, I'm thinking that the new calorie restriction rules are in place to get the 'UIs' accustomed to very little food so that when they are older and everyone is forced into government controlled bread lines they will be docile and accept the morsels alloted to them without complaint.
Sadly, I am not sure if I'm being sarcastic or not.

Of course "competitive foods" are on the nanny state hit list. Choices outside government dictates interfere with government control.

And just after the vending machines are stocked with organic,fat-free granola bars and vitamin water, the next edict will be the banning of so-called "outside" foods. No food or drink from off-campus will be allowed to be brought on-campus. Its "for the children", don't you know!

I'm in a state of angst 99% of the time I'm awake and can't believe what these pigs from hell have done to our America. Because of Zero, our traitor president, the media continues to accord the repulsive hulkathon with a never-ending platform to spew her bile and her latest governmental contol edicts. What are "competitive foods" Mrs. Big...and what's next on your twisted agenda?

Outgoing IRS Commissioner Steven Miller told a Senate committee Tuesday that the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of conservative groups was not partisan, but merely “foolish mistakes” made by employees trying to be “more efficient.” “I do not believe that partisanship motivated the people who engaged in the practices described in the Treasury Inspector General’s report,” Miller said in his opening statement before the Senate Finance Committee. “I reviewed the Treasury Inspector General’s report and I believe its conclusions are consistent with that.” “I think that what happened here was that foolish mistakes were

Illegal immigrants seeking a reprieve under an election-year program implemented by the Obama administration are being approved at a rate of over 99 percent -- a situation that has the immigration officer union raising concerns about fraud and security risks. The program in question is called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, which allows some illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children to seek tentative legal status.

Despite the fact that the Obama administration regularly strike at terrorists with lethal drone hits in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia, the White House is reportedly not rounding up five suspects identified in the Benghazi attack because of a lack of evidence to try them in civilian court. The Associated Press cites officials who said there is enough evidence to seize the men as enemy combatants and send them to Guantanamo Bay. But apparently the Obama administration wants civilian trials for anyone involved in the Benghazi attack and has sent the FBI back to collect more evidence, which

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W.

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”
