Default Tommy Thompson

Anybody notice the other day, US Sec'y of Health Tommy Thompson wants everybody to get fit, says he himself has cut down on the starches and bread? Yikes, a closet atkins guy. The Pyramid people will be tying themselves in knots behind their desks.

He's out of the closet, actually. In another article reported on this forum (do a search) Thompson's on record saying that he's going to use his bully pulpit to encourage a lower-carb diet for people, and is open to using incentives for business like fast food chains to offer low-carb options.
