Those guys should be shot.  Seriously.  I defy you to find ONE text where Washington claims to be either Republican or Democrat (or their closest relatives at the time).  Wasn't he the one that said a two-party system would be the death of America?  Christ.

EDIT: Considering Teresa's OTHER fortune, perhaps somebody will come up with a Republican pickle?

So little says so much about modern smear politics, LET ALONE the candidates.   :D

True.  George Washington warned against haveing political parties, but even before his death, political parties were starting to form: the federalists and anti-federalists.

This whole thing really is "WTF?"

Not only is it wrong, but I can't seem to think of exactly why. (aside from the obvious implication)

I would buy some for the novelty of it. Anyway, since a thread like this one exists, I will slightly derail with this link (http://www.sacramentogirliemen.com/).

For some reason, I reminded of the time Reagan's administration tried to have ketchup declared a vegetable for purposes of school lunches.

I still don't know why they didn't just fuck up the FDA and their absolutely absurd "school lunch requirements" so that kids could actually have condiments.

I was ate school lunches in the late 80s and early 90s.

"here, enjoy your taco salad WITH NO TACO SAUCE"

It just goes to show you.  The people who boast about freedom knows the least about it.

Here we go, Jimmy James bitching about cafeteria food again.

OMG WE CANT USE TEH CONDIMENTS WITH TEH TACOS!!!!111

Have you ever thought about the fact that the US government forbade condiments in school because they knew what was GOOD FOR YOU? Didn't you know that ketchup causes cancer? HUH, you ungrateful bastard.

Well, TELL YOU WHAT, smarty. You could have done ONE simple thing to circumvent that measure to protect your miserable life of yours.

BRING YER OWN!

But NO, you had to bitch against the school and the cafeteria workers. Cuz you knew better than the grown-ups, you spoilt little brat. Pretty shitty.

Well, you deserved to suffer eating your tacos without salsa. Cuz you weren't smart enough to bring yer own.

And don't give me that, 'BUT MY MUM DOESNT WANT TO GIVE ME ANY CUZ SHE SAYZ ITS BAD FOR ME!!!!1'.

I have an idea: THROW UP ON THEM, YER GONNA GET SALSA WITH YER TACOS!!!

And since Jimmy James says he's always right, well I'M EVEN MORE RIGHT THAN HIM!!! MWAHAHAHAH!!11

But not quite as funny.

At least you're gonna laugh at my pathetic attempt to imitate him.

Or be totally weirded out by my completely out-of-character rambling about something completely off-topic.

Whatever, I was bored.

That's why I can't be bothered to finish that fucking post.

CUZ I HAVE MORE TO SAY!

So, here's what they should market, instead of that stupid W Ketchup:

Cuz HE'S the conservative douchebag for whom you should be thankful for allowing you to poison yourselves with condiments full of pesticides and other shitty chemicals.

So, what are you waiting for?

SUPPORT AMERICA! JOIN THE ANTI-W KETCHUP CAMPAIGN! GIVE REAGAN THE PLACE HE DESERVES IN CAFETERIA HISTORY!

I agree with you Laukev7.  In fact, here they have banned soft drinks.  Such things as coca cola and pepsi can't be sold in schools anymore.  Along with sweets etc....

Actually, I was just being silly, but now I think of it... it actually makes sense, at least part of it.

Children should be allowed to bring what they want, but elementary schools should not encourage them to ruin their health by associating with big businesses and peddling junk food. However, it is possible for cafeterias to provide healthy condiments without outright banning them.

or they could just sell junk food and let the kids decide what they want to eat. if they wanna eat sugar and crisco and die by the time they're 34 let em. its they're choice, not some board of trustees that doesn't really know what the school needs.

at my school, the cafeteria is a private business seperate from the school. and we have all kinds of condiments

It wasn't actually about whether or not kids were allowed to have ketchup, but rather whether or not they should be given actual vegetables as well.

Post by: Refalm on 27 July 2004, 18:24
Vegetables are awesome. More people should eat it. Espacially kids. If they want to go to McDonalds and eat ham flavoured cardboard instead of kick ass vegetables, I think you're allowed to punish them real bad.
Title: W for WTF
Post by: Laukev7 on 27 July 2004, 20:00
Just because they're vegetables doesn't mean kids have be given raw carrots and broccoli. All depends on the preparation; the key is to make healthy food taste better than McDonald's crap.

Post by: Stilly on 27 July 2004, 23:20
or make it cheaper

the only downside to a lot of vegetables is you can't eat them drenched in grease.

spinache will kick your ass and cut you.

If you like grease that much, you can cook them in olive oil.
