HR 2749: Totalitarian Control Of Our Food Supply

From Lori

7-31-2009

A new food safety bill is on the fast track in Congress-HR 2749, the Food Safety Enhancement Act of 2009. The bill needs to be stopped. HR 2749 gives FDA tremendous power while significantly diminishing existing judicial restraints on actions taken by the agency. The bill would impose a one-size-fits-all regulatory scheme on small farms and local… Continue

The Death of Liberty: The Final Scene Unfolds by Former Kansas State Trooper

When police investigators begin amassing evidence at a crime scene, the bits and pieces of the puzzle begin to take shape. Usually, with several trained men and women working together to come up with an answer, the intent and actions of the perpetrator are almost always revealed.

Since my core training and experience over many years was as a state level enforcement officer, I have worked crime scenes that were… Continue

Economy In China Driving Graduates To Suicide

*Check out more of my blogs at www.neithercorp.us

China’s Hang Seng Index, much like our DOW, has made surprising leaps in the last few months. Each leap based on manipulated data and earnings reports from the U.S. which obscure the real state of the economy. They call it a “suckers rally”, and the term fits. When the the world markets jump hundreds of points just because Goldman Sachs reports a “profit”, something is wrong. All the market fundamentals are being ignored by… Continue

America the Great ... Police State - By Gore Vidal

By Gore Vidal

For those of us who had hoped that the Obama administration would present us with a rebirth of the old republic that was so rudely erased a few years ago by that team of judicial wreckers, Bush and Gonzales, which led, in turn, to a recent incident in Cambridge, Mass. that inspired a degree of alarm in many Americans. But what was most alarming was the plain fact that neither the president nor a “stupid” local policeman seemed to understand the rules of behavior in a… Continue

Mercury in dental fillings not risky, FDA says !

To begin with, this is a sure sign that journalism is dead in Canada! For though it might be reported through CBC, CTV, Global, or any mewspapers, most stories are released by Associated Press or Reuters and echoed across the land on all sites, stations, and prints. RARELY does one find an original article with a differing point of view....just repeating parrots across the land. And since most of the news is released or approved by the U.S. first, you find out faster just by going to a U.S.… Continue
