The New York Post reports that schoolchildren in New York public schools have begun selling salt and sugar to other kids to circumvent Michelle Obama's lunch rules. Officials are alarmed.

N.Y. Post film critic Lou Lumenick demanded Tuesday that Gone With the Wind be banned from TCM because its message is pro-Confederacy. That's the liberal view. The conservative view is that Gone With the Wind should air, but they should run the film backwards so the war has a happy ending.

President Obama hailed the Supreme Court decision Thursday to uphold federal subsidies in the Affordable Care Act. He cited anecdotal evidence to claim the program is working. In a recent survey, 72 percent of doctors say they think Obamacare is terrific as long as you don't get sick.
