In 1913, when cholera was decimating hog herds, scam artists were selling fake serums to farmers. Congress responded with the Viruses, Serums, Toxins, Anti-Toxins and Analogous Products Act. It gave the federal government authority to regulate diagnostic testing devices for farm animals.

The Bush administration rediscovered this law when the Kansas company, Creekstone Farms, announced plans to test its entire herd for mad cow disease. The company was willing to go far and beyond the government's test regimen to reassure its customers in places such as Japan.


This has become a USDA of pick and choose enforcement- special interest treatment......

They dig up this old law that hasn't been used in years- but refuse to enforce a 1921 law- the PSA- which has been in operation and use for years.... :( :cry: :mad:

They did enforce the PSA, you just have the wrong interpretation. The PSA has been clearly defined by case law. Fortunately for the beef industry it does not agree with your version.

The beef industry's interpretation has so many holes in it that it isn't even funny. The fact that federal judges went along with them in their ludicrous interpretation from judge strom to the appellate court shows how much out of reality our elitest court system has become. The tie of political money and influence peddling in Washington DC has so altered our system of government for the advantage of bribe paying individuals that we are losing the best things about America. We are losing the rule of law as seen by the common man to the rule of elite judges and those appointed to the regulatory agencies and hired in the regulatory agencies with no real oversight from Congress.

These things almost always end up bad. We are going to lose the blessings bestowed upon our country. I just wish it were not so.

AND GWs REGIME ;


another fine example


The case involves the Bush administrations attempts in 2002 and 2003 to rewrite the Environmental Protection Agency's "new source review" regulations under 1977 AMENDMENTS TO THE CLEAN AIR ACT. ...


NOW, all those grandfathered plants and such give rank to Houston as one of the (if not THE) NUMBER ONE CITY FOR POLLUTANTS AND CANCER than any other in the Country. now there is something for GW to be proud of. ...TSS
