Oh, Holy Congress, Defend Us From Popcorn

The Macaca Post reports that Congressional Democrats are pressuring OSHA to regulate microwave popcorn:

Last month, the issue's visibility increased after a Colorado man, who ate two or more bags a day of microwave popcorn, was diagnosed with popcorn lung disease.

He ate two or more bags of popcorn a day and that's the only thing that's wrong with him?

Meanwhile, the federal government continues to operate on a continuing resolution after Congress failed to pass any of the basic appropriations bills for the fiscal year which began October 1st.
