Wide Load Wants to Control Your Food

The same group of conservatives that want the government to enforce full term pregnancies and decide as to which consenting adults can and can't get married, based on their sexual orientation, now consider much less intrusive attempts to address rampant child and adult obesity in America as contributing to a "nanny state!"

Is it just coincidence that those states with the "widest loads," needing to change their diet,
tend to be "conservative?"
