Not really! If you've ever been to a Wal-Mart in the South, you've find many of the customers who not only have "magnetic personalities", they have "gravitational attraction" as well! Some of those obese ladies riding around on the electric shopping carts have about the same gross weight as a Toyota Corolla!

Nope, that's what the twisted Left calls love.

That's why I'm familiar with so many bigots and how they behave, at all social levels.
so you are familiar with all of those gun toting fat rednecks in NC, but you apparently never saw the fat black diabetics in greenville, greensboro, hillsboro, durham, wilmington, elizabeth city, fayette-nam, hickory, etc. all of those fat white gun toting rednecks voted for obama in 2008. you should move up to the northeast where they simply don't allow blacks. now the italians and the irish? that's another issue.

Just more liberal indoctrination.

Fast food, junk food, etc. are very expensive in the long run but the fact remains that when people are suffering from food insecurity, those types of foods are almost always going to be the first things that they reach for be it for reward, instant feelings of fullness, whatever.
Until that food insecurity is relieved people will continue to make poor choices. And it does nothing for the cause to stomp one's feet and whine about the long reach of government when people attempt to do just that.
All that does is prove that people really couldn't care less about anything other than their own narrow agenda.
I was driving thru a not so great part of town like last year & Burger King had a billboard touting "Feed a Family of 4 For $15.00$!" I was just so grossed out by that.

Oh, I didn't miss the point. Not even close. It appears that in fact it is YOU who missed the point....which is liberal ideology leading to a net drag on society through government handouts. You folks OWN this woman and her problems. The sad part is that you actually embrace these problems instead of seeking to fix them.......all because you want a vote from these leeches.

what were you grossed out by? burger king, or the parasite that saw the ad and thought it was a good dinner option? I could feed a family of 4 for 2 days for $15. healthy meals too.
