Plus…

Our Governor just said he wants to raise DMV rates $140 per yr on avg…

And the Dir of DPT (parking) said he has asked his “crew” to write an additional 45,000 tickets in the next 90 days, in hope to raise and additional $6 million…

and they want to take away our Oreos Too?

Let’s march on Sacramento!  
Lost, you with us? I know we can count on Philbo and Jubba…  
Heck, maybe we can get Guigo to come to the Northern Hemisphere for a march…

He’s just a loser lawyer trying to make a name. He probably assumed kraft would pay him a few thousand just so he’d shut up, but since they didn’t, I’m guessing he’s just trying to get his name on [kirupaforum.com](http://kirupaforum.com) (who cares about [CNN.com](http://CNN.com) :)).

And ban white people. Whitey’s always keeping me down. Oh, and while we’re at it, ban Mac’s. They’re evil. And you can’t start banning stuff without going into reality television.

Well if you think about it, Phillip Morris, (now Altria) has a history of marketing harmful products, to children even. Im not sure that Phillip Morris/Kraft/Nabisco makes anything that is actually healthly or good for you. i.e. Miller Beer, Marlboro Cigs, Oscar Meyer Lunchables, Philladelphia Cream Cheese, Kool-Aid…

Not exactly health food if you ask me.

But it isn’t a “fat is bad for you” battle.

This is based on Transfatty Acids, which they have recently proven to be extremely hazardous to your health.

What they don’t say, is that \<i\>any\</i\> hydrogenated oil contains transfatty acids… so… margerine, most bread products, most snack foods, veg shortning (Crisco), most spreads, etc. is extremely bad (carcinogen) for you…

However, this means butter is okay again, since it only has cholesterol, and no transfatty acids, whereas margerine raises your cholesterol as much as butter, plus causes cancer…

Go buttah…

its funny how the FDA can demonize certain foods, and then give you a substitute that is far worse.

Its like, “Oh no! Sugar is bad for you; here’s Nutrasweet with extra Apsartame! Eat Up, get sick, and go to the doctor; our Pharmacuetical Giants are depending on you…”
