A Fruit, Not A Vegetable

Time Wasted - Maggie's Farm: "I'd like to thank my teens for pointing out to me that pizza has been declared a vegetable by Congress.

Years ago, the Reagan administration received abuse for suggesting ketchup was a vegetable.  Now we have Congress actually voting on this stuff?

At a point in time where the government could be shut down almost weekly, is nearly bankrupt and the Super Committee can't help forge agreement, we can agree that pizza is a vegetable.

Tomatoes, of course, are a fruit.  So pizza should be a fruit, not a vegetable.  Since they can't even get that right, it's probably no surprise Congress can't come to a reasonable agreement on the budget."
All the fruits and vegetables are in Congress. And the White House.
