Not a big deal at first, but the next logical step is to threaten states with loss of funding if the kids are too fat. Then the laws forcing a government approved diet and monitoring follow.
I know, you liberals out there are screaming “but if the parents won’t do it, we have to”. And I would agree, if you had a record of getting ANYTHING right. The liberal agenda in schools has resulted in dumber kids who drop out. When governments (especially liberals) parent kids, the kids always lose.
A bill introduced this month in Congress would put the federal and state governments in the business of tracking how fat, or skinny, each child in American is.
The bill would require states that receive federal dollars for health programs to track the Body Mass Index of children ages 2 through 18 annually through records collected by their health care providers. The legislation also requires the states to pass that data on to the Department of Health and Human Services for analysis.

Obama at his best. working hard to make Muslims happy and put the US at risk.
This one writes itself. Billions to Muslim nations and Muslim "entrepreneurs" and "fakestinian" terrorists and ummah outreach. But the middle finger to "hymietown" Jesse Jackson must be dancing naked in his mistress’s boudoir.
By their fruits we shall know him, and so we know B. Hussein.
White House decides to slash New York anti-terrorism funds 11 days after Times Square Bomb Try NY Daily News
Eleven days after the botched plot to bomb Times Square, the Obama administratio on Wednesday slashed some $53 million from the city’s terror-fighting budget.
To top it off, the news comes as President Obama comes to town today to tap the city’s deep pockets for the Democratic Party.
"The President seems more interested in raising money for political campaigns than providing New York the money it needs to defend itself against Islamic terrorism," said Rep. Pete King (R-L.I.), the top Republican on the Homeland Security Committee.
The cuts, to be announced Thursday, target the annual allocations for transit security and port security, legislators said.
The New York City area will get $111million for transit security in the final 2010 budget – a 27% chop from last year’s $153 million. The port security program is getting chopped from $45 million to $33.8million – a cut of 25%.
"The fact that the Obama administration would cut New York’s homeland security funding just 11 days after the Times Square car bomb attempt is dangerous and unconscionable," King said.
