Default RE:Red States Have the Fattest People

Flawed logic. Because some red states are some of the fattest states, does not mean that all red states are the fatest states. Some, like Utah and Colorado are among the fittest. Some Blue states are among the fattest such as Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. If you look at the fattest and fittest cities in America, they are about evenly split among red and blue states. Source: CDC, BTW.

Ironically, a great number of people in those red states that are obese happen to be "blue staters" in that they meet the demographic identities of likely democratic voters in that many are poor and minority. It is unfortunate in this country that the cheapest food is among the worst food for you.

It is also unfortunate, because behind your comment is some sort of implication that obese people are either less inteligent or worth less as human beings because of their obesity. I find that disappointing.

In brief, not every article you read is about bad republicans. What you post often says more about you than it does anybody else. You might want to think twice before posting some of this stuff.
