We have been told it's spiniach. This is the first time anyone has questioned this as authority. Obviously, the article is meant to stimulate thought and hopefully, make people think, question, rather than find more fault. You are all questioning, which is good, useful, for no one else in the Media has even bothered to do that. However, you then, like everyone else who doesn't question authority, demand an immediate solution from this article, but you don't get the problem. Let's look to Monsanto in Florida and other corporations who could give a shit about the antibiotics they sell the beasts. Wake up people! And get your mittens off the deer! Put away your guns. Peace.

This is a wakeup call for the food industry. Inadequate surveillance, the overuse of antibiotics, and easily contaminated crops!

I never noticed Keith Oberman until the night of September 11, 2006, when he used the phrase, "impeachable offense". I couldn't believe anyone had the guts to actually say on mainstream television what so many AMERICANS are thinking. I'd just seen the Tim Russert interview of Dick Cheney and the quip to Cheney about the shotgun. I had an eerie feeling that Cheney really could go after Russert if he wanted to. It was as if in that moment, Cheney was a man possessed by a very large demon. Then this fellow Oberman came on on 9/11 and wow! This really is a free country, I thought. (At least, freer than most) For the first time, I actually wrote a letter of congratulations to MSNBC. And the other news that day was soooo depressing, bleak. And the photo ops, sooooo silly. Then here's this man on mainstream news un-afraid! Fear, says Michael Crichton, is to be eliminated. Both Democrats and Republicans and Libertarians can take a lesson from Oberman. Then again, they might be afraid of a shotgun in the face, or, an undisclosed prison sentence.

Rock on Mr Oberman! This is totally Thoreau, totally American! (And rock on Chris Matthews too!)

Anybody seen this bumper sticker on a car lately? THE RAPTURE IS NOT AN EXIT STRATEGY. I haven't. What disturbs me is that here in Palm Beach Country, there are precious few bumper stickers on the cars, aside from the dealership where the car was bought.

I feel a little skittish about putting it on my car in a Republican controlled neighborhood. And that is curious. So, um, I opted for the time tested, QUESTION AUTHORITY, a quote by Socrates no less (or Timothy Leary--the jury is still out on that!) But in order to soften that punch for my neighbors, on the other side of the bumper, and over the dealership where I bought the car is now placed, IS IT 2008 YET?

Peace and Love Everyone. It's the Only way.

Thank you

From this and from the Charlie Rose Interview with Bob Woodward, it's clear that the author (like Michael Moore, typically....) did not go far enough or deep enough. This does not serve the cloth of writing.

For all of the excellent research, and superb title, we are all missing the ingredient that the current Administration refuses to provide us with. Perhaps they haven't the capacity. And so it's for the author of great tradition to ask, What is the motivating force behind all of this? What drives these men? What are they in "denial" about? What is it that they really, really want?

What is really going on here?

This is so simple that it's easy to miss. This book is too comfortable, too "bubbled", and avoids the real questions. Better luck next time, Mr. Woodward! Again, like Moore, it is you who are in the "state of denial". This meant respectfully, for both of you provide great entertainment, just shy of truth.

To you, Mr. Woodward, and to America: When will you take off your clothes and become angelic?

Thanks and Peace
