"But you never had to Play Goofy

"But you never had to play Goofy . . . " Colorado's Senate panel is set to review a bill designed to prohibit the so-called obesity lawsuits against fast food chains and other food manufacturers. A similar bill, named after its federal counterpart, the Common Sense Consumption Act, will be proposed later this term in Colorado. Both sets of legislation seek to completely insulate food manufacturers from obesity litigation, litigation that one of sponsoring Colorado senators called "goofy." So there you have it. It's goofy.
