Sure, this is a food "safety" bill just like the "stimulus" was a "jobs bill".

The charade is over.

The stimulus bill was exactly that. Designed to stimulate economic activity. A jobs bill is a micro bill. A stimulus is a macro bill.

Maybe you SHOULD have gone to public school. Those tutors taught you dick.

And it was a miserable failure. The only thing it "stimulated" were the salivary glans of power hungry politicians and government bureaucrats.

Maybe failure was a word you failed to learn.

Ask your buddy Nebby...he has a fine and dandy chart which proves that the stim worked.

What the F does that mean? Oh, I know. It means you can no longer defend this nonsense but you are too proud to admit that you were wrong.
