    We can still celebrate progress, especially at the state level. We certainly shouldn’t throw up a Mission Accomplished banner when the same people who refused to feed children in the recent past are going to roadblock efforts in their states.

      That’s basically how I feel. People work hard to make progress like this. Is it depressing that we even need to fight for basic nutrition for children? Absolutely! But if we always react to that progress with cynicism and negativity, it might lead folks to work a little less hard next time.
