More than 8000 people have signed
a petition against the pasage of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act
in any form. I signed the petition and encourage you to do so also.
According to the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund,
as published on the petition page:
More than ever, the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (the "Act") represents a major threat to the local food movement, states' autonomy to regulate food, and the country's ability to become self-sufficient in food production.
The Act will greatly expand the power of FDA, an agency that does not respect your freedom of food choice. The FDA has stated as a matter of public record that people have "no fundamental right to their own physical and bodily health" and "no fundamental right to obtain any food they wish."
Passage of the Act into law will enable FDA potentially to regulate all farms marketing food products direct to consumers even if the farms engage only in intrastate commerce. [NOTE: The Amendment offered by Jon Tester was adopted 11/18/2010 to mitigate the most immediate impact on small farms and counter the trend of consolidation of the food supply; however, the bill is still fundamentally flawed.] The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010(in whatever form) needs to be stopped!

n Lame Duck Flux, Food Safety Bill All But Dead
BY HELENA BOTTEMILLER | DEC 18, 2010
Saturday morning update: Asked about the status of the food safety bill during a morning press conference covered by C-Span, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said: "The good news is it is not dead, the conversation is still alive on the floor of the Senate today."
Durbin said he is hopeful the measure can be included in "the wrap up" of the lame duck session.
Someone asked if he knew a Republican co-sponsor was saying it was dead, and Durbin replied: "I would have said the same thing an hour ago."
HAIL MARY PASS
It is possible that a Hail Mary Pass,
to get the bill over could happen before the
Senate adjourns for Christmas. There are many Senators
and House of Representative members who would like this to happen,
and an untold large size coalitoin from many factions
who are opposed to the passage of #S-510.
September 23, 2010 - Senator Coburn coherently expresses real concerns over food safety bill S510 sponsored by Senator Durbin. Read Sen. Coburn's treatise "Detailed Concerns with S.510, the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010".

Washington can not believe its ears!!!
Sounds deafen Lobbyists who had spent billions and billions
imagining they could buy stables of men and women
they thought that they had voted into office.
This can never be the case in America the Beautiful!
Our legislators--all of them--are well intended
and know truly in their hearts
America The Beautiful.
The sight is amazing!
Our Honored President is inspired
by fresh and local organic foods that Our First Lady
serves him from the White House
organic garden. He declares to the Nation
he is a Beet Keeper in this
the Enchanted Garden Era.
1000 years of peace start now.
Nations around the world honor
our president who was given
a nobel peace prize.
Birds Twitter!
Sustainability again rules the land.
It is one beet. Many Pulses
evermore.
Soldiers come home.
We honor our returning veterans
and send them back to school
to relearn how to grow food in
their own backyards.
A new middle class in America
is reborn. Children receive all the
plant based education they need,
and exude virtue that inspires
mothers, dads,
grandma and grandpa.
Young folks adopt elders.
A happy day returns as
farmers wake up
as Senators and all elected
say, "Happiness is organic."
The later verses
of "America the beautiful" sing out
throughout the Land:
*O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain...
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till selfish gain no longer stain
The banner of the free!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream
...beyond the years
...alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till nobler men keep once again
Thy whiter jubilee!
