Missippi republican John Read hates fat people! Though at 5′11 and 230 he’s no olympian, Read is proposing a bill that would require restaurants to deny serving food to obese people. Though the bill gives no indication of what would be considered obese, it’s making a lot of people angry. Claiming that the bill is aimed at creating awareness of obesity, Read seems to have no problem making a mockery of the United States political system.
What I think perturbs a lot of people about things like this when they hear about it, is that we are paying taxes to give this guy a salary, so he can waste his time on silly nonsensical B.S. that doesn’t help anybody in any way. This seems to be a common trend in today’s politics, and it is so incredibly irritating that it is starting to feel like we can’t do anything about it. Guys like John Read, and many of the other wastes-of-space in politics today make everything so discouraging, because no matter who we vote for we get people pulling crap like this.
