Those who cannot remember ...

... the idiocies of the past are unable to avoid the gross irresponsibility of repeating them, apparently.

The GOP-ridden led congress, at the mercy of the junk food industry, it would seem (along with all the other industries at whose mercy they seem to be,) have channeled the spirit of the Reagan administration and are attempting to define pizza as a vegetable for school lunch purposes.

Not even the military thinks this is a good idea. But I bet Herman Cain does. My attempts to retain even a semblance of non-partisanship on this blog are getting harder and harder as the Republicans provide data point after data point to support the hypothesis that they're completely venal and/or idiots.

Jesus H Christ, how much does the electorate need? Perry can't remember which agencies he'd promise to and then fail to eliminate, Romney is a teflon coated thug, and now the whole damn congress can't tell pizza from broccoli? My sweet lord, every time they do something like this, I think, they can't top this, and then they go right ahead on and do. Incroyable!
