    Probably Saturday or Sunday in the Express News.... Is in response to her article in yesterday's edition... I had to tone down my true feelings for this ...

    Dear Senator,

    Do you really think we are that dense? "Honey, the kids health card came in the mail today. Did you know they are overweight?" "No, I thought they were just big-boned..." Our public education system has better things to spend their limited funds on. I applaud your concern, however, give the parents the benefit of the doubt. And for those kids who are already overweight and face serious health problems, I feel for them, as it is obvious their parents are doing a poor job... so I don't think a "health card" is going to get them to change their destructive ways.

    Regards,

    No , how about that give us her BMI.

    What pisses me off the most, is seeing her on NBC's nightly news promoting this . There are so many more usefull things she could be working on that involve public education and she chooses to spend her time promoting something that is a waste of government money.

    this is no worse than our local leaders wasting thousands of dollars fighting strips bars in court and wasting so much time during city councils meetings over them...

    this fat report card would be extremely easy and cheap to implement.
