Speaking Truth to Power... about drink sizes?


And here's Sarah Palin at CPAC, demonstrating the childish reactionism that we've come to expect.

Bonus facts:
1) The NYC drink ban didn't include Big Gulps
2) It was struck down by a judge anyway
3) The lovely people of facebook have christened Sarah Palin as "Bible Spice"

Jeff apparently just flat out ignored it. Interesting given that was the point of my comment.

The point of your comment was overwhelmed by the "it's for your own good" aspect. The consequences of all actions ripple throughout society - the picking and choosing of some consequences as worse than others, regardless of the science or the actual impact or the rationales behind them, pretty much stops the concept dead in its tracks.

I call that par for the course.
