What's on Tap in the Lame Duck?? - 6 days ago "There is no set date at which the lame duck session will end--recall that last year, in a strained effort to pass health care reform, the Senate held a vote ..."

Even If You Favor Amnesty For Some Illegal Teens, This DREAM Act Must Be Stopped
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2590020/posts

Here’s the real story:

No. 1: Not valedictorians — or even necessarily good students.

Any illegal alien who can manage to meet the minimum requirements to graduate from high school or get an equivalent degree meets the first test.

No. 2: Primarily NOT teens or college students.

The Senate DREAM bill allows you to be up to 35 years old!

The House bill has no upper limit.

No. 3: Don’t have to have come when a child.

SEN. OLYMPIA SNOWE 202-224-5344; 207-874-0883: Staff says she “hasn’t released a statement.”

SEN. SUSAN COLLINS 202-224-2523; 207-945-0417: Staff says she “hasn’t released a public statement.”

SEN. LISA MURKOWSKI 202-224-6665; 907-271-3735: Staff says she’s “still reviewing the bill.”

SEN. SAM BROWNBACK 202-224-6521; 785-233-2503 Staff says he “hasn’t had a chance to look at it” and remains non-committal.

SEN. KAY BAILEY HUTCHISON 202-224-5922; 214-361-3500: Staff says she “hasn’t released a statement,” but will probably do so later today.

SEN. GEORGE LEMIEUX 202-224-3041; 904-398-8586: Recorded message informs callers that he’s “in a meeting.” He has yet to publicly state his position as open-borders extremists step up pressure…”

Lets see now.. they break for Thanksgiving and they break for Christmas and New Years. Hopefully the breaks are very long to shorten the lame duck’s life.

All this talk about TSA — diversion! We KNEW those stinking creeps were up to something. We KNEW it! They suffered confusion because Pelosi almost lost her fleet of jets. She ought to take those jets and stick them someplace!

Arthur, thanks for the alert. I want to remind everyone of another couple of Lame Duck fiascos in the offing:

1) Last week opentalk posted “Lame Duck Land Grab” from the AMERICAN SPECTATOR
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2626623/posts

Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) is hoping to put a land grab into an omnibus bill that would have the effect of creating new National Parks. The land grab ultimately would be a way of instituing cap-n-trade by cutting off our ability to use any of our resources.

2) S510 is a grab for governmental control of food production.

FASCIST CONTROL OF OUR FOOD SUPPLY? THE S.510 FOOD SAFETY SCAM

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2630193/posts

IMHO we are in the MOST dangerous time of our republic and we MUST be vigilant and burning up the phone lines to Congress as well as being humble before the Lord petitioning His intercession. God bless all FReepers everywhere!

If the Dream Act passes, that is the beginning of the end of the United States.

Both of AR Senators are undecided as of this afternoon. We threw out Lincoln, and Pryor is up in 2 years.

Info on the Food Bill from this thread:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2631774/replies?c=14

To: Peter from Rutland
Luckily Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) is trying to block the bill. A bill that regulates ‘persons’ who manufacture food products and places the oversight with the TSA.

Section 111 - Requires the HHS Secretary to promulgate regulations on sanitary transportation practices for the transportation of food.

Section 204 - Requires the HHS Secretary to: (1) improve tracking and tracing of fruits and vegetables that are raw agricultural commodities in the event of a foodborne illness outbreak; and (2) establish standards for the type of information, format, and timeframe for persons to submit records to aid the Secretary in such tracking and tracing.

Section 101 - (2) require that each person (excluding farms and restaurants) who manufactures, processes, packs, distributes, receives, holds, or imports an article of food permit inspection of his or her records if the Secretary believes that there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to such food will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

1. There is a small list inside the FDA called “sources of seed contamination” and
2. The FDA has now defined “seed” as food,
3. So seeds can now be controlled through “food safety.”

Those seeds (so far) include:

*seeds eaten raw such as flax, poppy sesame, etc.;
*sprouting seeds such as wheat, beans, alfalfa, most greens, etc.;
*seeds pressed into oils such as corn, sunflower, canola, etc.;
*seeds used as animal feed such as soy ….
