Bush administration solves childhood obesity epidemic


...the Biscuit Belt has gone from feast to famine practically overnight.
...IF you can believe two contradictory things at once.


Say, this looks like an excuse for another animated GIF...


Ta-daah!

(And yes, I realize it’s possible to have gross obesity combined with “not always hav[ing] access to enough food” among people within the same geographical area. But the opportunity for snark is just too good to pass up.)

1 There was a magazine article last summer (in, of all places, The New Yorker) about the contradictory observations of volunteers in community food banks. Among other things, they were troubled by the number of fat and obese people who showed up for free food. This was particularly true at food "give-aways", where patrons would queue up before the doors opened. Some of the volunteers remarked that it looked more like a line to get into Weight Watchers for the weekly weigh-in.
