There you go again. I take it you prefer your spinach salad with an E-coli dressing?

Up here, I was in about the last class that saw/felt the paddle, I'm in my 40s.

What's in this huge Bill that's as thick as your thumb is long (like that horrendous health care fiasco that we couldn't see until we passed it)? My guess is it's another progressive power grab to control what we eat, when we eat it and at the pinnacle, how much we pay for it. I do know of cases where locally grown, organic pesticide free producers are already being regulated out of business by laws already on the books that pale in comparison to this newly written progressive boondoggle.

I'm guessing those balled tomato plants I buy and hang upside down on my back porch will soon become unavailable due to this bill.

If this lame duck Congress is looking to ram this through before Christmas and before they become a minority, you can be CERTAIN they are looking to control the entire food supply and create more dependence on government.

Damn man, you are one paranoid dude.

What's the better way?

Let business poison us when it is more profitable?

I'd say he's just basing future actions on past performance.

Not long ago, Beck did a segment on how the FDA is trying to "gain control of the food supply, to ultimately starve us into submission."

Ten minutes later came a report from Fox News about the FDA ordering tainted Spaghetti-Os pulled off the shelves.

I truly am beginning to hate those people. Fox, and most of the right wing media, that is.

Now, if only Beck would eat those Spaghetti-O's. Hmmm.

Better yet, maybe Chef Boyardee will cater the Fox Christmas party.
