Are these groups paying you to advertise them?

Why else would you be so treacherous?

No one believes your posts. The only good it does, is increase the name recognition for marxist communists.

Your commitment to promoting these groups borders on treachery.

What do you mean no ones believes my posts, they are right from the link posted to read up on Prop 37 by the pro-supporters, including in one of your own posts on FR.
http://www.carighttoknow.org/endorsements And, in another post you claimed the Catholic Church either endorsed this Prop 37, or the Bishops Council on Biotechnology Ethics. I asked you to provide the link, of course you didn't. Funny, I don't see any Catholic organization in the list to endore prop 37...but there are some leftie churches that promote gay marriages and abortion rights.

Any comments to this article? Your opinion would be valuable.

I've already voted no on this issue. If all genetically modified foods are to be labeled, then *all* food must be labeled, because there are no unmodified foods produced by agriculture.

I see no real difference between foods that are genetically modified through molecular biology methods, or through cross-breeding. Either method can produce toxic "food"; either method can produce improved food. Many people are Luddites who automatically reject any new technology, which is why there is a controversy. Foods modified by molecular biology methods, at least, are tested before they're allowed to be sold... I don't think many cross-bred foods are tested.

My mistake, it was your buddy,acapesket, who first posted this article that gave us the link to go look at the supporters:

“www.carighttoknow.org

By the way, I am still waiting for a link from you that supports that the Catholic Church, or any Bishops group from the Catholic Church supports anti-GMO. I don't know why you just won't admit that this is a big leftie amendment, supported by the all your friends?

You need to research Love Canal. It was a government created and sponsored disaster.

Oh and also, stop believing liberals.

I believe her posts. Those are all lefties/communists/progressives. They’re carbon-haters which means they hate all life. Sadly, they’re also hypocrites and want to begin with yours.

You go girl!

Seems they are ALL leftists, most of them slimeballs.

I would not support what they espoused simply on general principles. To do otherwise would cause me to lose sleep at night, and generally feel unclean.

You’re just adding lies to lies.

When they turn out to be toxic, they aren't sold.

I remember reading about an attempt to breed celery for the "organic" foods market. The breeders came up with a celery that bugs wouldn't touch. Unfortunately, it was caustic enough that no one else could touch it, either.

Here is an article about hybrid grass that killed cattle. (The site is full of ads, sorry about that.) Although the article claims the grass is not genetically modified, that simply is not true. If it is a hybrid, it *is* genetically modified, but using older technology.

I would say that Christmas peppers are an example of toxic cross-bred "food." They are inedible, and are as much a product of cross-breeding as any food that people grow.

Is it conservative to be a liar? To make up stuff about a person and post it in an internet forum? To me, the person promoting the marxist communist groups, trying to associate them with me, is projecting her own political philosophy by enabling publicity for these groups.

No honest American conservative has to resort to lies and Alinksy tactics to discuss politics.

Since you brought up carbon, the GMO companies are stating to the world bodies like the United Nations, who are trying to create global carbon taxes, that the GMO companies should get carbon credits for their products, because the pesticides are already in the plants and don’t have to be sprayed, and/or irrigated.

Companies like Monsanto want the carbon tax levied, because they have created themselves an out, and will tax individual farmers out of existence using the force of GLOBAL GOVERNMENT.

It is very similar to the ploy used to outlaw freon by DOW.

Is this global treachery? YES!

Conservative Americans do not support United Nations global taxes, nor the mythical carbon credit, but GMO companies DO!

Everyone is a ‘leftist’ but you.

No wonder we can’t elect a conservative to office. They’ll only get one vote, in your world.

Don’t you even read the posts and the threads...that is WHO posted the article on being Pro-37 and you have endorsed everything in it! By the way, still waiting for your to back up the claim that organizations in the Catholic Church are publically supporting Prop 37. Do you deny that all the organizations on the pro-37 site are supporting 37 and that they are almost all leftists organizations? Are you proud you on on the same side as Maxine Waters, Barbara Boxer, the Communist Party of California, The Greens, The Democrat Party of California,Green Peace, Friends of Earth, Sierra Club, and it goes on an do...let’s don’t fore Roseanne Barr...another mental giant.

It seems that these pro-37 Freepers are in denial that this Proposition is a leftie amendment and just can't believe that 95% of the supporters, like Barbara Boxer and Maxine Waters, are from the far left. There is big money though, in California from the organic industry, and I didn't even post the list of all the organic growers that are supporting it. I think it will pass, because how left California has become.

Alternative medicine is about as conservative as you can get, just as the AMA Med Mafia is as globalist/leftist as you can get.

If you wish to be healed, Alternative medicine is your best hope, outside of righteousness in Jesus Christ.

Greenpeace is your people for sure, and foul language is your fare in communication, along with a constant stream of lies.

Are you denying that Barbara Boxer, Maxine Waters, Roseanne Barr, the Greens, the Communist Party of California, the Democrat Party of California, and all the lefties are supporting Prop 37? I haven’t even posted 1/3 of the lefty organizations. Note that I never use foul language, so now you are being a hypocrite. For someone who uses the name of Jesus Christ, you are certainly seem to be a very nasty poster attacking people who do not agree with you.
