It looks like there are just too many excuses coming out of the USDA, beefman.  Maybe you could name one an "Excuse Burger" for the USDA and your little packer buddies.  The damage of handing out more excuses than results is adding up for the producers.  I know it doesn't really matter to the "margin makers", they want a little more supply than  demand so they can push the market down again or let GIPSA to remain in name only so Tyson can run the poultry production prices down and then tell the beef people they have to compete with lower priced chicken.

I think we are all tired of eating the "Excuse Burger", beefman.  We all want to know "where's the beef"!
