The lunch backlash continues...
if they are going to limit the kid's portions they definitely need more whole grain, non processed food to stave off hunger...
Students Are Tweeting Awful Photos Of School Lunches To Blame Michelle Obama For New 'Healthier' Meals
This has nothing to do with the First Lady and everything to do with the "destroy public schools!", "I refuse to pay taxes---hey, why isn't the snow plowed off my street" idiots.
ReplyDeleteno, it has nothing to do with "destroy public schools." The liberal Democrats in Oregon, in Lane County, are very socialistic liberal government oriented. And they have been destroying the school system themselves, by discouraging capitalism, or business, or jobs here, and now the county is so broke the schools have no money. And this is one of the most liberal, Democrat states and counties there is! It's been that way for years, and they have destroyed the public school system all by themselves!
DeleteBut what are they doing in Lane County with their money, all these liberal Democrats? They have decided to take a downtown street, throw thousands and thousands of dollars at it, and made bicycle lanes on it. – – While they have had to cancel schools, classes, fire teachers, start to fire and take apart the community college, and get rid of a lot of elementary schools. That's how smart the liberal Democrats are in Oregon! Melee, they are FINANCIALLY IRRESPONSIBLE, crooks. They tax and tax and tax, and they steal all the money! As a result, this is one of the most anti-public schools places, because of very liberal Democrats in charge. .
Isn't someone saving money giving the kids far less food? I also think that telling kids they can't bring lunches from home is way over the top. I am not against reasonable taxes.
ReplyDeleteBack when St. Ronnie Ray-gun was elected, Congress declared ketchup to be a vegetable in school lunches; you could either have tater tots OR ketchup, but not both. The First Lady has no judicial powers and cannot make laws. I'm sure smaller lunches cost less, but it's from the Teabaggers insisting on tax cuts to the schools, not someone with no legal power.
ReplyDeletedear, the teabag party are not in power. They have nothing to do with this. I am sick and tired of all you Democrats Liberals blaming the Republicans and the right wingers for all your problems, when you Democrat liberals have been in power in government for years! How are you going to get out of taking responsibility for being in major power? Just stop the bitching about Republicans, and everybody else, because you guys are stupid and in denial.
DeleteOne problem with the school lunches is they are rot, white carb and greasy meat rich meals, that do not satisfy even when the portions are bigger. Have any of you ever seen those websites where they show what kids overseas eat in their lunches? It's night and day and they get real food. I had to eat some crap lunches while sub teaching, so wonder the children were falling asleep or hyperactive from getting some candy too add to the mess.
DeleteI read the article and don't see where students are forbidden to bring lunch from home. Also, the article is based off a Daily Mail (aka Daily Fail--the British version of The National Enquirer) article, so I would take it with a grain of salt. Schools are required to offer fruit and vegetables with each meal, and just because the kid isn't showing them doesn't mean they weren't given.
ReplyDeleteIt's not happening in every school district but they are forbidding lunches from home in many. Ketchup as a vegetable or some tater tots isn't cutting it. Talk about micro-managing lives.

If a kid is hungry, they should be allowed to eat. Some kids aren't getting adequate nutrition at home. Telling kids they can't bring lunches from home? What the hell are things coming to?
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to think that Mrs. Obama is projecting her own body image issues onto everyone else. Doing this to children is unconscionable.
I think Mrs. Obama is doing that as well. She has serious body images. Mrs. Obama looks VERY MASCULINE, I have never seen a woman with arm muscles, like I have seen on her. Of course given this, there will be some issues. I also think she has helped to advance fat phobia and of course no real issues as to what is pushing obesity have NOT BEEN DEALT WITH. It is the same starve yourself and exercise nonsense that hasn't done it for 40 years. The American economy has worsened by far under Obama.
DeleteNowhere does it say that kids aren't allowed to bring their lunches from home. Michelle Obama does not make laws, but the Republican congress ("ketchup is a vegetable") does.
ReplyDeleteMichelle Obama deserves that; she stuck her big fat face into everybody's food, and dragged all that food into the government. And anytime the government gets ahold of something it ruins it. The government got a hold of Obama care, and the national healthcare system, and it ruined that! I know people in Oregon who are required to have a Obama care, and they are also required to pay $5000 or $8000, before they can use it, paid to the insurance companies. So they can't use it! They have to sit there and let the government tax them and tax them, for the violation of not having insurance, (because of course they don't have thousands of dollars to pay for it) they are being punished by the government, and overtaxed, and they still don't have any medical insurance. and they are not getting FREE HELPING SUBSIDIES to help it!!
ReplyDeleteI talk to people every day in Oregon who were working, and they are all hit by this and they hate it. We're not talking big-time earners, were talking working-class people. And they don't make very much money anymore. So now, you can take Michelle Obama, and stick her in HELL. But she'll scare off the devil!
The Obamas do not care about poor or working class people. Obama goes after disabled people everytime there is a govt freeze but we won't see billions in aid given to third world countries ever stopped. Now he wants us to have war with Russia and we have to worry about mushroom clouds yet again. I remember when the left used to be anti-war, guess Obama managed to destroy that in one fell swoop because political correctness rules. Obama care is the biggest racket on the poor. My household CANNOT AFFORD IT, but we are going to get penalized, unless one of the exemptions hold and who knows how far they will go with that. My husband is uninsured. The subsidies only cover the destitute poor-ie people so poor, they would be on streets. My husband has gone without vein surgery etc, but Obamacare is such a joke, and absolutely worthless with such high deductibles. I grew disabled with bad insurance with 1,000 deductible, it was useless since I never had a thousand dollars lying around since that is about all I took home a month when I was working in the 90s. Obamacare is huge punishment for the poor. The Left now is controlled by the elite rich as much as the Republicans ever were. I have noticed they tore off the "we care about the poor" face mask in recent years. Sadly some do still see the Democrat party as the party of the little guy because of past history. Working class people are under extreme strain. Since my husband works for himself--freelance, if you add up our tax rate even being poor, it is extremely extremely high, I can't even post how bad it is on here. I suppose Mrs. Obama while she goes on her next multi-million dollar vacation is not worrying about the poor or hungry children at school eating bad food.
DeleteI believe Obamacare is going to destroy Medicare which is extremely frightening for people on disability. At least Medicare offers some real help unlike Obamacare.
DeleteThe tea party is pretty much dead now after the Republicans co-opted it and the bankers and globalists got their way. Even those who follow Ron Paul/Rand Paul, should be careful that their politician isn't sold out to the powers that be. I do think how can Democrats blame Republicans, if anything the Republican party has been serving as bad cop while Democrats are the good one, but taking us to the same horrid place. One thing if they can institute backdoor "food rationing" on the children, it throws the doorway wide open to do it to adults.
