Suggesting cutting back on salt is to help you keep your health care costs down, DUH.

Uh huh.

Speaking for myself, I'm tired of the do as I say, not as I do ruling class mentality.

And you're right I'm fearful.
Fearful of what these powerful nutbags will try and ban or interfere with next.
Hopefully it will be something you enjoy.


p.s. I never add salt to any of my foods.

Yeah, because we all know that the cost is going to go through the roof with the new law. Something has to be done to keep it in check so Obama doesn't look like a smacked ass.

How does Michelle know how much salt is even added to these meals she wants changed? She doesn't, she just wants to put her nose in where it doesn't belong.

is she making a suggestion, or suggesting a law? that's the real issue here. promoting health is different than mandating it.

Yeah, her $300,000 a year "show up" job at the hospital made me scared.

What if she decided that clothing dyes were bad, bad, bad, and she decided to mandate that all clothing dyes and bleaching be banned; for no other reason then she thinks wearing natural colored clothing would be best for us?

The point is, what I eat is no concern of hers, and trying to use her position as First Lady to force changes to the choices in my life. It is none of her business how often I dine out. If her jet setter life of glamor has her eating at a lot of restaurants, that is her problem, let her change her eating habits, its a free country, or it was until the wannabe tyrants moved into Washington.

Can't but incandescent light bulbs.
Can't buy the health insurance i want.
Can't get a college student loan from my bank
Can't follow the recipes to food my customers like to eat
Can't buy the automobile that i want

What else "can't" we do according to these progressives?

Did you read all of her remarks? She was speaking to the National Restaurant Association and asking them to provide information on their menus, smaller portions and healthy options. Ohhhhh! The Horror!!!!!!
