George Washington didn’t care how if your ancestors were packing a few extra pounds. Neither did Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, nor even LBJ. And Bill Clinton definitely didn’t care.
But Barack Obama? He wants to know how fat each and every American is. In fact, he demands to know.
CNSnews.com has the disturbing dietary details:
New federal regulations issued this week stipulate that the electronic health records — that all Americans are supposed to have by 2014 under the terms of the stimulus law that President Barack Obama signed last year — must record not only the traditional measures of height and weight, but also the Body Mass Index: a measure of obesity.
The obesity-rating regulation states that every American’s electronic health record must: “Calculate body mass index. Automatically calculate and display body mass index (BMI) based on a patient’s height and weight.”
The law also requires that these electronic health records be available — with appropriate security measures — on a national exchange.
Remarkable. Would you be surprised if this administration begins issuing tickets and assessing fines for being overweight?
Is 2012 here yet?
