Only if you are a student at the one school that sold CFA for a fundraiser. If not, then it has no impact on your life at all.
And why are they raising funds to send the special ed students to six flags? What does six flags have to do with education? A museum would be less expensive and more educational.
I don't know if Six Flags does it but Cedar Point does a physics day where kids learn about the physics involved in the rides.
Who is "we"?And do you need the first lady and a team of bureaucrats to plan your daily diet?
Learn to read. I said "we, as a nation, are growing fatter by the year" and the numbers bear that out. You can ignore that if you choose, but it doesn't make the problem go away.
Again, what is wrong with the First Lady making awareness of this issue her cause?
Obesity has tripled in the last 60 years. We are a fat nation, growing fatter by the year, and it's costing us big time. You don't consider that a problem that we should be addressing? The First Lady has made this her cause, and I applaud her for bringing it to the fore.
I tend to think a lot of the outrage is planted by the lobbies of junk food. It's these lobbies that bought and own permanent seats at the table ( regardless of who sits the oval or holds the majority) and makes certain their products continue to be eligible for SNAP.
Per capita, we are the fattest nation and have the highest healthcare costs. No coincidence.

I dont think of myself as a "we", I make my own educated choices, but I'm wondering why you need the first lady to make yours?

If so,they bought seats at the table that your lawmaker sold to them at your expense.
And you want to keep giving them more say lol
Chick Fil A is owned by Christians. The Obama's, as with most liberals, hate Christians. Simple as that.
Kinda strange since the Obama's are Christians themselves ....
WHY are so many against children not getting a HIGH fat, HIGH sodium lunch supplied by the school?
You would think parents would be HAPPY their child was getting a nutritious lunch.
School lunches have been under the regulation of the federal Government since there have been "school" lunches, you guys act like this is something Obama started.
When I was in school, there were NO Pop/Soda machines, you had a choice between white and chocolate milk, usually the lunches were very good, there was NO corporate sponsorship of lunches.
Those that didn't get a 'lunch card" paid full price(VERY reasonable) or bagged their lunch.
Almost everyone walked to school, there was maybe one "fat" kid in a class.

What's really interesting is the recent research that shows that it's not saturated fats that cause issues in our diet. It's carbs. They keep changing what we SHOULD eat. I'm going with my old doctor's advice. All things in moderation. Next year they'll tell us lettuce is bad for us.

He is Christian. I bet you'll say he hates black people next.
Or maybe he's just pretending to be a Christian. Like he's pretending to be an American... and pretending to be black! Then he reveals his master, evil plan!
You do know that some body parts are just genetics and have nothing to do with what we eat
Yep. We don't know what her ancestors had sex with.
