Himself - U.S. Surgeon General, 2002-2006: Obesity is the terror within. It is destroying our society from within and unless we do something about it, the magnitude of the dilemma will dwarf 9/11 or any other terrorist event that you can point out... Where will our soldiers, sailors and airmen come from? Where will our police and firemen come from if the youngsters today are on a trajectory that says that they will be obese? Himself - U.S. Surgeon General, 2002-2006: Obesity is the terror within. And unless we do something about it, the magnitude of the dilemma will dwarf 9/11 or any other terrorist event you can point out to me. Himself - U.S. Senator: Here is a picture of a baby breast-feeding on a McDonald's hamburger. [long pause of disbelief] Now that just about borders on the obscene. Himself - Governor of California: We are going to terminate obesity in California once and for all. Himself - Author, Television Host: We also can't be emaciated scarecrows that get upset and go on Prozac for a month because we ate something that has a couple calories. Moderation... Moderation... |
