The Japanese also embargoed wheat from the west coast after some of Monsantos' franken wheat was found in a Oregon farmers field, unbeknownst to the farmer.

Maybe they're smarter than us?

The false equivalency comes from the fact that the OP linked to the RT for a subject matter that was entirely unrelated to the Russian agenda. I haven't suggested that linking to RT in support of a position that one takes, proves that one is a "commie." I wouldn't suggest that it is wrong to be a so************************t. I would suggest that it is reasonable to draw a distinction between linking to a site to provide information and linking to a site to advance an agenda. Your comment did not go over my head. I simply stated that the point you were making was a false equivalency.

Regards,

D-Ray

No, you were called a shill and a sock puppet. Commies are okay here.

I actually heard the story on the radio. I just needed a link & that one was better than most IMO.

Wait until Monsanto sues that Oregon farmer for theft of their intellectual property.
