Is Anyone Listening or Paying Attention?

Hello, hello, can you hear me?

Remember, they tell us to eat healthy.


A national recall of E. coli-contaminated spinach last year killed four people and sickened nearly 200.



An E. coli outbreak last year forced several Taco Bell restaurants to temporarily close their doors.



BJ's Wholesale Club recalled packages of fresh mushrooms in February after a routine inspection revealed the possible presence of E. coli.



ConAgra said its nationwide peanut butter recall that began in February of this year costs between $50 million and $60 million.



Company Recalls 129,000 Pounds of Beef



What does the public think?

Are food safety standards tough enough in the U.S.?
No 75%
Yes 13%
Not sure 11%
Total Votes: 27,219


And is our government worried about how safe our food is?

They are too busy doing more important things.


Senators strike deal on immigration reform bill

Compromise deal would legalize millions of illegal immigrants


WASHINGTON - Key senators in both parties and the White House announced agreement Thursday on an immigration overhaul that would grant quick legal status to millions of illegal immigrants already in the U.S. and fortify the border.


Sen. Edward M. Kennedy hailed it as "the best possible chance we will have in years to secure our borders and bring millions of people out of the shadows."

This from the most hard-drinking, liberal, out-of-touch Senator ever.

Nice job on his makeup though!!!

Someone tell me why quick legal status is important! Also the admitted count is now at 12 million.

What does the public think?

Where do you stand on the proposed agreement?
I'm opposed 62%
I'm in favor 26%
I'm not sure 12%
Total Votes: 20,250

Not that their opinion should matter since they should not have a say but,

Even the Mexicans don't like it

Immigration Proposal Panned in Mexico



MONTERREY, Mexico - Many in Mexico expressed disappointment Friday with the U.S. Congress' immigration reform proposal, arguing it doesn't let enough Mexicans enter the United States legally to work, while focusing on an arduous path to residency for those who have already taken the illegal path.


So basically the only people that like this whole deal are the politicians.

When will the American public revolt?


And so goes the start of a new week!! See you tomorrow.
