Caloric counts on menus are great! Unless ...

Have you noticed that menu in restaurants and fast food places now are displaying the calorie counts of their menu items?

I did find one customer who had noticed the calorie labels: Dick Nigon of Sterling, Va. He and his wife, Lea, had stopped by McDonald’s after seeing an exhibit at the Renwick Gallery. Dick had ordered for the couple, noticed the calorie labels and liked them.

“I like that you have the information before you order,” he told me, when I asked about the labels. “It’s better than some kind of government health mandate in Obamacare.”

I told him that the calorie labels were, in fact, a government health mandate in Obamacare.

“Well that changes things a bit,”[/b] he responded. “I thought this was more of a voluntary sort of thing. Now I’m not quite sure how I feel about it.”

Republicans in Virginia forcing unwanted and costly vaginal ultrasounds on women, against the woman and her doctor's desire - okay and not big government or religious intrusion into an American's life and individual freedom.

Making restaurants post calorie counts, in the unhealthiest nation in the world, with the most expensive healthcare in the world? Appalling.

Americans - "Sorry, world - some of us don't do logic".
