Good news! Adolescent abuse of overweight individuals is on the decline, thanks to the No Child Left Behind act! Or, to put it another way,
all of our kids are fat and it's
the Federal Government's fault. Once again, President Bush has failed failed failed, and this time his blundering has destroyed the health of our youth. By blindly requiring students to learn basic facts during their time in public schools, as measured by a tyrannical series of tests, the President has driven our children into the soul-crushing prison of obesity. But are any of us surprised, really? Clearly, if you don't require children to meet and maintain federally-mandated standards of physical fitness, there is no hope for them to acquire any degree of such fitness on their own. If it weren't for the oppressive
mental educational requirements that Bush has heaped upon our poor youth, it would be entirely possible for them to receive quality
physical education from the very institutions that were doing a remarkable job on both fronts before Bush ever got involved.
What good do basic math or language skills do for anyone who is trapped on the road to heart disease and diabetes from an early age? Parents across the nation must unite and demand better for our children! The future of our great nation depends on the ability of our federal government to make our progeny into active and productive members of society! After all, if the government can't do it, who is left on Earth that possibly could?
