COM-MU-NIST. Can you imagine if RUSSIA had as much power over us in the cold war days as China does now? Give up your freedom to the Reds? This is what is happening now. It's not a cold war. It's a subtle war. Maybe someday China will just walk in and take over and Bush can be their "Walmart greeter". I can't wait to see what will happen to China's Olymics. I plan to boycott watching them...for the first time. Even the atheletes won't show up until the last minute because the air is so polluted they don't want to hurt their bodies or chances of winning. China = communism = misery. MFEMFEM is right….communist China. COM-MU-NIST. Can you imagine if RUSSIA had as much power over us in the cold war days as China does now?

“It’s accomplished quite a bit, actually, over the decades. The current administration’s complete politicization of absolutely everything, is not, in fact, “politics as usual.” “

Exactly, it is not an issue of a rogue agency, it is the issue of a rogur administration. The FDA is part of the Executive Branch of the government and it is doing EXACTLY what the White House wants it to do. The White House appoints the political hacks that run the agency and they do its bidding.

Maybe someone could add some mela-meat to their breakfast and lunches. The schedule shows Dr Stephen Sundlof is going to speak, sure wish Christy could go and ask a few questions. And on top of that, they have come up with an acronym for the pet food recall, its called MARC according to PFI, melamine and related compounds (MARC) recall" . This all courtesy of PFI's website....
