Fat Democrat blame genetics, fat Republicans blame themselves

Except you are using the hit piece as a back up to your claim. As such you have failed at making your case. Why quote this piece if you are not going to present evidence to back it up?? It would seems you are the one derailing this thread, changing the topic.

 

I play golf...swinging a club is not exercise. And there is not much walking at all when one play cart golf. Walking five feet to the ball from ones cart is hardly exercise. There is no significant heart rate elevation from swinging a club or walking five feet to ones ball. There is no strength training involved in swinging a club or walking five feet to ones ball. That's not my opinion...it's science.

 

It would seems that making claims without having evidence without claim to back them up, and promoting fake news, is the top tactics of the Republicans' playbook.

Ain't generalization fun?

 

You should know

 

You are the one making a sweeping generalization. I'm merely pointed out your silliness.

Now....how about quoting the research to back up your claims in your thread title and your OP. and quit derailing your own thread.

 

I'm commenting on the OP and the link in it. You are trying to shift the subject to a hypothetical that the study is flawed or misrepresented in the link. The responsibility is yours to prove those assertions.

 

Hm, wonder who Trump blames.

 

Just reading through you're past posts on this forum I highly recommend others to do so that is why I made that post.

 

Why exaggerate, if you have such a good case?

Is golf using a cart highly strenuous. No. However, it is good exercise for an older person. The walking and the swinging is good for you. For whatever reason, Trump is a very healthy seventy plus year old male.

 

The OP is making a claim based on an article. You are supporting that premise and the article. It's you two that need to back up your claims. I already know you can't do so, so now you try to toss it on others. You two are "fine" examples of republicans taking responsibility for their own actions.

 

LOL....yet another distraction and attempt at derailing your own thread. Well done.

By the way, it's "your", not "you're." If you are going to try and insult me, do it properly.

 

The article presented in the OP is our source. If you think it's flawed then make your case.

 

What am I exaggerating?

Genetics can play a role in ones health. I assure you, Trumps 'health' is not because he swings a club.

 

I already made my case. That article is nonsense and have zero evidence to back it up. Your turn.

 

Your case is your opinion. I take the article at face value but if you think it's flawed make your case. Research the study and show us how it's flawed or the article misrepresents the study.

 

Genetics can also be a cop out. My wife's slim and trim while her sister us big as a house. Same genetics different life style.

 

Anybody can post an article. That article have zero emperical evidence to back it up. You two made the claims, you two back it up. I'm not in a habit to prove a negative.

 

Hence why I specifically posted.....'Genetics can play a role in ones health.'

 

I am dyslexic just wondering how you'd like to rip that lol? Also I don't want to install grammerly like you guys/gals/it.

When you work in cad design oddly enough spelling and grammar is the least of your issues.

 

Walking five feet from the cart. It has been a long time, but I don't remember ever parking within five feet of the ball.

And you have scientific evidence to back you up?

 

So you cry fake article fake news fake OP. Prove it.

 

And why I replied it can also be a cop out.

 

Fwiw, there are studies that research in which states obeisity tends to be the largest problem.
Generally, those are the states of the old south
Mississippi 66.44 1 2 4
2 West Virginia 65.55 4 1 12
3 Tennessee 61.90 2 11 11
4 Arkansas 61.72 5 6 8
5 Louisiana 60.64 3 7 5
6 Kentucky 60.53 7 10 7
7 Alabama 59.07 8 21 6
8 Oklahoma 58.35 6 36 1
9 South Carolina 57.15 10 22 18
10 Indiana 56.60 15 8 16
11 Texas

There is something else that is fairly obvious about these state...
They tend to vote conservative

So it seems that conservatives tend to be self indulgent fatties

Otoh, in the liberal states, people tend to be less fat and more fit

Just the facts

 

And this has anything to do with personal responsibility? The thread is if you're a fattie who's to blame, yourself or "god"?

 

There is no evidence in that article to back up their conclusion. Therefore I take it as an opinion piece. It's their job to prove their conclusion and they haven't done so and neither did you. It's you and the OP that made a claim and it's your job to back it up. I know you can't.
