Whoa -- hold on. Do some homework on the food issue. Really do some research.

Read Joel Salatin - of Polyface Farms, in Swoope, Virginia. He ain't no lefty, but, he isn't some RINO. He pulls no punches with both political parties, when they infringe on food freedom.

When the ATF and state Ag departments start doing SWAT-like violent raids on peaceful farms based on spurious alleged infringements or even entrapment, even the Inside-the-Beltway libs get riled -- because their clean, healthy food supply is endangered. (Look up the Ohio family, and the Pennsylvania farmer who were raided -- eerily Soviet-like). Libs up in Montgomery County, MD, were holding legal fund fundraisers for the PA farmer -- they knew it was over-the-line and tyrannical, and cut them off from supplies of reliable, quality food. These weren't conservatives putting their money where their mouths were, for this farmer, but libs!

This is serious stuff. Now, I can't say I forgive these jerks for putting Obama in power, but they at least understand the importance of food.

Lefties and righties or whatever CAN agree that freedom is a good thing -- the food issue hits close to home. You can live without the cheap Chinese goods, and even without European cars, but you can't live without food, when I last checked.

Take a look down your grocery store aisle. Look at the ingredients. Tell me how much of it is healthy, reasonable and fit for consumption.

Yes, I've done some homework, and I've watched the "lefty" documentaries on food, water, corporations, walmart, etc. No, I don't buy everything folks are selling (e.g., Greenpeace, PETA, etc.), and I see their biases, but pay attention to what's going on, whether deliberate or accidental, and see how much "food freedom" you have, and how quickly it can be taken away.

I would encourage you to do some homework!

I have done a lot of research and the stuff you are putting out is just junk science promoted by lefties and Greenpeace, plus PETA is a big supporter, as you mention.
