Do No Evil – First, they came for the spinach. I remember the day last September. The supermarket had a new kind of salad dressing, one that looked like it would taste good with spinach. I went to the produce section to buy a bag. But they all had been recalled. Three people had died from E. coli contamination from eating spinach. I decided I could live w
Well let's see. Reduce checks on the food supply, outsource to foreign countries, watch as dogs and cats die, tell everyone don't let the next terrorist attack be a mushroom cloud and guess what? Al Qaeda Healthy Brand salads and beef will hit supermarkets this fall. Yes Neo_-cons, you have threatened us with mushroom clouds but you didn't bother to check the mushrooms! They like to say you will die like a dog and now with Al Qaeda Healthy Brand salads and steak, you really will. This government is so inept and incompetent, while you are die from because a 50 cent check for poison wasn't conducted feel good it was a mushroom and not a mushroom cloud.
Partisan politics has ruined the US more than anything else.
Whoever put up this useless piece is guilty of it.
OK, so show us some facts and links to prove that the selling out of our food safety is a bipartisan issue.
Otherwise, you`re just wasting our time and protecting the problem instead of trying to help with the solution.
What is your solution except beyatch about politics? You are just as guilty as the poster or the writer. Actually more, because at least they are taking a stand on improving the situation.

You be suprise how many more people get sick from their home cooking. Do some research before you bring politics in.
Food inspections always go down when republicans are in power. Industrialized food is a disaster. The only thing that gets the US food industry to do anything is fear of lawsuits. Buy your food from local farmers directly whenever possible. Zapp your coldcuts in the microwave 30 seconds before putting it on your sandwich. Bacteria thrive in refrigerated meats.

They've already ruined our intellectual health, our spiritual health, and our emotional health.
So why wouldn't neocons want to ruin our physical health.
Nazi doctrine says a sick and damaged population is easier to control.
God Bless George Bush.
