“I’m no expert, but bird flu was my first thought.”

H5N1 was my first thought, too - influenzas are known to incubate in swine and poultry populations. It may not be the H5N1 variant, but flu is a definite possibility...

Drought in Australia...

Mankind's fault.

Flooding in the Central Plains of the U.S.?

Human caused climate change.

Anywhere on earth things seem sort-of normal? It's only because the dreadful effects haven't made it there yet.
[never mind the fact that both drought and flooding are realtively "normal" occurences, hence the words themselves having long been in existence]

And George Bush isn't doing anything about it! Bush is destroying the environment! (/dimwit mode)

Every day at 2 p.m. Eastern they live blog the hearings at Pet Connection blog

Note: FDA sent the following "reminder" out yesterday:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is taking this opportunity to remind food manufacturers of their legal responsibility to ensure that all ingredients used in their products are safe for human consumption.

Meanwhile Romney talks about “partnership with China.”

Duncan Hunter is the strongest candidate who understands the China threat on all levels.
