Hi Bocor....It's nice to see a new "face" on the thread.

So you don't believe that Michelle Obama is "trying to control" children's diets, huh? Well, what would you call it when she uses her iron-fist to dictate what goes into school lunches? Hmmmm?

And Bocor, there is no end to the woman's arrogance. She demeans our troops by telling them that she will soon have them "eating their veggies" -- as though they are just a bunch of dunces that don't know how to make their own choices.
