"So I guess nothing in this world is absolute including surveillance testing. But certainly for our own purposes as we look at our overall BSE program and any changes we might need to make to our program, certainly in the context of communicating with our trading partners in terms of the prevalence or lack of prevalence of the disease in this country, this surveillance program is of paramount importance.

And so the bottom line is, the more samples we test, the greater accuracy and the more confidence we can say whether or not we have the disease and at what prevalence.

ROGERS: That concludes today's technical briefing. As always, if you have further questions you can check out our website at www.aphis.usda.gov.

Thank you, and have a nice day."

And so they stop Creekstone and the other Companies that wanted to test from testing- even when they said their customers would pay the cost.... Absoluting blinking brilliant :roll:

Oh, the people willing to whore out that agency for political gain.

Absolutely shameful.

Some people need to be in jail rather than make policy against producers behind closed doors in this manner.

I think the actions of that Bureaucracy (USDA) affected much of how the election turned out last night...Their arrogance got the administration/Congress many negative votes...I Know it did mine...I folllowed NCBA's advice and voted how the candidates directly affect you- and I wanted rid of a D.C. that has sold out to Big Business, refuses to enforce laws like GIPSA- M-COOL, tries to force big government down your throat with Mandatory ID, is selling out our sovereignty with NAFTA, AFTA, CAFTA, and their proposed North American Union,and has totally been shown to be in the pockets of the AMI/Big Corporate Packers with their Creekstone stand and refusal to listen to small business and consumers during the whole BSE issue, etc. etc...
USDA's actions actually were probably the biggest epitome of the entire arrogance we have been seeing come out of D.C. for the last few years.....
