What’s the obsession Progressives have with food? NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg wants to ban salt and is always lecturing New Yorkers about eating Healthy. His fellow Progressive Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is also urging his people to eat less. The irony is that Mr. Chavez himself is not exactly the epitome of being lean. So his lecturing on food intake is actually quite laughable.
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Hugo Chavez urged Venezuelans on Sunday to cut their calories to avoid obesity – the latest lifestyle recommendation by the self-proclaimed socialist crusader.
Chavez has lobbied in recent weeks against what he calls the evils of capitalism, including alcoholism, breast implants and violent television programs.
“Be careful with weight gain!” warned Chavez on Sunday, speaking during his weekly television and radio program. “We are eating better, that’s been proven. We’re leaving malnutrition behind. It no longer exists in the country, but be careful with obesity.”
Typical Progressive hypocrisy. Do as I say and not as I do. Bloomberg and Chavez should live up to what they are lecturing others to do. Maybe with Bloomberg’s money , they can start a Gym chain. Hugo Chavez can sing for the commercials and have Charles Johnson as his guitarist. Maybe Chuck will join the Gym and get in shape!
