G. Weber,

Why has the USDA kept the BSE testing under its control?

Why can't you convince the Japanese of the integrity of the U.S. herd?

How can you claim BSE is on its way to being erradicated under these conditions?

I like beef and I like to eat beef all the time. Many family ranchers depend on their cattle sales. The credibility of the USDA in administering the programs (AMS, BSE testing, GIPSA investigations) has shown to have major flaws and indeed designed coverups. These issues have hurt the credibility of the USDA, not the questions from cattlemen.

Remember, the world was once thought to be flat. Questions only help to uncover the truth.

I am less worried about vegan's claims than the USDA's.

Given the recent happenings in this admistration and this congress, a Washington D.C. address does not help the credibility issue.
