“I turn on the tube and what do I see? A whole lotta people cryin’ ‘don’t blame me.’”

That’s the opening line from the Eagles song “Get Over It.” It’s one of those songs whose lyrics are always apropos. That’s because people always blame someone else for their troubles, and so there always will be the need to tell these same people to “get over it.”

Case in point: Monet Parham, in case you missed the news, is a mother of two from California who, along with the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), is suing McDonald’s for deceptive marketing.
