OBAMA VS. CHEERIOS 

By Neal Boortz

Give me a break, would you?

OK ... here's the deal. The Food and Drug Administration is a bit upset with General Mills, the folks who make Cheerios. Cheerios boxes, it would seem, make the claim that Cheerios can lower your cholesterol 10% in one month. True? Don't know. But the FDA says that this advertisement on the box makes Cheerios a drug and they want the language changed or eliminated.

My beef? An Internet headline this morning said "Now Obama Admin Battles Cheerios." Oh yeah .. this is all Obama's fault. Any other president and the FDA would be sitting silent. Are you kidding me? Look ... there is enough about Barack Obama to cause concern with any thinking American who values liberty, but trying to paint Obama as the enemy of Cheerios? A bit much, don't you think? How in the world can we expect anyone to pay attention when we bring up some actual problems with Obama's theory of governance? "Oh yeah, that's the same guy who was worried about the Cheerios."
