We get nagged to work out.
We get nagged to eat what THEY want us to eat (but not what they eat.)
We get nagged to not burn carbon (not the way they do).
What's next?
A government "suggestion" to start drinking breast milk because it builds immunity? (On a side note, my father had a funny story about a friend who got tricked into eating a breast milk brownie.

Shapiro at Politics Daily has an intriguing piece up about Obama's repeated "encouragement" that his staff work out regularly.

Maybe when we all get government paid personal trainers we'll stop whining.
Which is probably about as delusional as Charlie Sheen.
