INSIDIOUS KILLER AFOOT
Powerful Age editorial on the killer that needs to be exorcised from our lives:
Islamic extremism is the silent killer. It does not hide itself, indeed quite the opposite, yet it bides its time. With each fold of its embrace around someone, it makes living for that person just that little bit harder. It is insidious, for it lets the person do its work for it, literally feeding it and giving it strength ... It needs to be stopped.
Yes, it does. Too bad this editorial (the first two words in that extract are mine) is actually about ... obesity. What was Julia Gorin saying the other day about displacement?

Hey, that’s why they call it a “fatwa”, tim.

As if being fat’s outside of your control. Got news, people: if you have a legitimate medical condition, you can seek treatment. If you don’t, you can diet. If I can loose 70+ pounds in the last year, anyone can.
Posted by Rob Crawford on 2006 07 20 at 12:44 PM • permalink“Clearly, the childhood obesity war needs to be fought on two fronts: in the school and at home.”
“War”, indeed! Displacement on stilts. The article treats the whole issue as if we, as individuals, are helpless victims, instead of insatiable Twinkie scarfers. Let me know the next time somebody finds a suspicious-looking, untended bag of poly-unsaturated fat on a train.
As I read this, I’m sipping on a cup of my home-made hot and sour soup: lowfat chicken broth with a dash of soy sauce, a dollop of wine vinegar, and a sprinkling of crushed red peppers (skipped the diced veggies this time). I’ve decided to fast a la St. Mother until this War on Obesity thing is won and the soldiers come home.
But tonight it’s chicken asagio. Hey, it’s a rolling fast.
Excellent idea, Rebecca! I’ll be working hard on my rolling fast here tonight. I’ll roll through multiple pints of red ale and a blue cheeseburger…or two.

Without you…Posted by Mr. Bingley on 2006 07 20 at 02:08 PM • permalink#2 LOL, Mr. man.
#3 #4 I’m trying, Robert and paco. I’m on the Sheehan milkshake diet but I seem to be gaining weight. I can’t understand it.
Still, I did lose 170 pounds of ugly fat a few months ago—I stopped watching an interview with Fisk on CBC-TV.
Posted by andycanuck on 2006 07 20 at 06:45 PM • permalinkWhat else does the evil West do beside guzzle fuel? Right - they guzzle food! Another bandwagon looms on the horizon, and self-flagellants start to jump on board.
Check out the Wikipedia entry on Body Mass Index. In 1998 the U.S. National Institute of Health adopted WHO guidelines on body weight. Overnight 30 million Americans were re-classified as overweight. I bet they were surprised when they woke up next morning.
There’s a clear connection. Look at the obesity problem with many of those housebound Islamic extremist mothers.
A few days before the 7/7 London bombing I saw a very thin Moslem woman in total black covering on a bus, near the No 30 route as it happened].
I was worried I couldn’t run away from her fast enough, if necessary..Americans are fat ‘cause we have all the food and we can actually afford to buy that food and eat it.
I wear my extended belt-line as a symbol of national pride and cultural affluence.
Besides, better to be an American fat-ass, rather than some hyper skinnified girly-man that drops to the ground in a moaning fetal position after receiving a simple thump on the chest.The US Department of Health sent out an expert who told the eager reporters that Marilyn Monroe was overweight. Haven’t heard much from the boy since I’m assuming he shacked up with Andy Sullivan.

16. Good one dipole. So life could be worse. You could be overweight and a member of the “coxless four”!

Posted by Infidel Tiger on 2006 07 20 at 09:25 PM • permalinkThe food fascists have been pushing the line of the ‘obesity epidemic’ for decades now. The increasing life expectancy in the developed world over this period puts pay to the argument. In the old days people died at much earlier ages from communicable diseases which are now controlled/eradicated by immunisation. Because we are no longer dying of these diseases we are instead dying later in life of heart attacks etc - which are attributable to many more factors than obesity. Hey, you gotta die of something!

No, that brave, provoked Italian pulled his ‘chest punch’ aimed at Zidane’s head so as not to cause any harm. A real Italian Gentleman.
[Taken from the Italians’ Official Report].It still amazes me that a World Sport can allow itself to decide major games in such a stupid way.
If 183cm 84kg (6’ 180lbs) is borderline overweight, these stats people would have a heart attack measuring footy or rugby players…
Posted by The_Wizard_of_WOZ on 2006 07 21 at 12:05 AM • permalinkYes, but imagine the competition Jenny Craig or Weight watchers could have.
Join Allah Watchers now ladies, and receive a free scarf to hide your fat weight. The brothers will hate you being fat, but will love the scarf you wear to hide it.
But wait (weight) there’s more! If you join now, you’ll not only have a free trial on the Mohummud bike, but Allah Watchers will help bless your big bum.
Join now, to stay suppressed.
A Big Mac is a tool for killing with a worker at both ends.

#30 KK Now you’re talking, sistah!
I used to shop at the DJs food hall when I worked in the City. If I could have, I reckon I would have lived there for the cheese selection alone.

I’d rather die fat, dumb, and happy than at the hands of a Mo-licker.
