ONLY GOVERNMENT CAN PROTECT US

IIRC - Cargill initiated the recall before the government ordered one.

Could that be why there are spinners out saying that salmonella is not as dangerous as other contaminants?  Trying to save face for the government for not doing their job?

[Rugnuts]

if i ate ground turkey, which i have not tried, and i cooked it to the recommended temperature, would i not kill the salmonella???

and i heard that cargill has had positive salmonella tests in the last year but it wasnt a concern. im thinking there is an "acceptable level" which their tests maintained so they did not stop production.

Long article but good, just a snippet of the article, the rest can be read at the link.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2024284/UK-riots-2011-Liberal-dogma-spawned-generation-brutalised-youths.html

Years of liberal dogma have spawned a generation of amoral, uneducated, welfare dependent, brutalised youngsters

They have no code of values to dissuade them from behaving anti-socially or, indeed, criminally, and small chance of being punished if they do so.

They have no sense of responsibility for themselves, far less towards others, and look to no future beyond the next meal, sexual encounter or TV football game.

They are an absolute deadweight upon society, because they contribute nothing yet cost the taxpayer billions. Liberal opinion holds they are victims, because society has failed to provide them with opportunities to develop their potential.

Most of us would say this is nonsense. Rather, they are victims of a perverted social ethos, which elevates personal freedom to an absolute, and denies the underclass the discipline — tough love — which alone might enable some of its members to escape from the swamp of dependency in which they live.

Only education — together with politicians, judges, policemen and teachers with the courage to force feral humans to obey rules the rest of us have accepted all our lives — can provide a way forward and a way out for these people.

They are products of a culture which gives them so much unconditionally that they are let off learning how to become human beings. My dogs are better behaved and subscribe to a higher code of values than the young rioters of Tottenham, Hackney, Clapham and Birmingham.

Generally, a high-speed interface of flesh and lead tends to correct this.

Ballygrl, concerning your post about the Wisconsin Reporter, those comments were awesome!  One commenter wanted to disseminate the following, so I bring it here:

Amazing Karin, and we're the "violent" ones?

Advice you should heed but of course you won't. In reference to a few disruptors at the Romney event:

14. Sorry, but I don't find it particularly awesome.
   
Most of the people in the audience were just venting. I agree with a lot of what they said, but it wasn't any kind of reasoned exchange.

Undecided voters who watch this clip would be likely to come away feeling some sympathy for Romney.

It may make you feel good to shout people down and sound like lunatics, but do you really think the average American would side with you? NO!

Move-On-Up.org: Stepping Outside the Template

<snipped> here's some highlights, the rest can be read at the link:

Move-On-Up.org describes their Mission in 3 parts:

1. “…to have a centralized meeting place for African-Americans to network, share ideas, and let the closet conservatives among us know that they are NOT ALONE.”

2. “…to grow a true grassroots movement, unbureaucratic organization that will be a needed force on the national scene to advance our agenda within the national debate.”

3. “…to find tomorrow’s future leaders and candidates for elected office at the local, state, and federal levels. Move-On-Up.org’s 527 PAC will provide the infrastructure for the moral and financial support necessary so that these candidates can wage credible, winning campaigns.”

They also describe their 5 founding principles as such:

Renewing our Economy – Our goal is to empower the African American people by expanding employment and entrepreneurial opportunities.

Health Care Reform – Health care is a personal issue, and informed individuals can make better decisions about their own care than government.

Securing our borders – We need to gain control of our borders and enforce our immigration laws while encouraging legal immigrants who come seeking the American Dream.

Education – Education, while a national priority, is a local responsibility. We believe that parents, teachers, and local school boards are the key to true education reform — not big government. We support school choice initiatives such as vouchers, charters schools and homeschooling.

Strengthening our families – We uphold and respect traditional institutions such as marriage between a man and a woman. We are committed to protecting the life of innocents from conception through the infirmities of age. This value must be nurtured in both our culture and our laws.

People are trying to get a flash mob going at the 9/11 ceremony tomorrow, when Mayor Bloomberg speaks they're hoping everyone will start singing Amazing Grace.

[Revolution]

^That would be excellent! Just drown the miserable  out.

I'm not the violent type unless provoked, but speaking of the various ceremonies, BG, there was an article in the paper yesterday about a local Troofer. Crazy dude believes all kinds of other whacked out stuff too. They actually cited some of his beliefs in bullet points. They also quoted him as saying he is unsure if he's going to the ceremony of rememberence tomorrow at a local park. I know I'll be there. However, if this guy is there, and he starts any kind of bovine scatology, I will indeed consider it provocation. Pissing on the memories of so many fallen, and so many more who will never be the same.

I just really hope he doesn't show tomorrow...

I was youtubing a bunch of 9/11 things last night and ran across a few truthers, the wimps, they disabled comments on their youtubes.

Yep. That's usually the way of them. Cover their ears, and scream "lalalalalalala!" in an effort to conceal ACTUAL truth.

Pro-Obama hashtag backfires on Twitter
By Alicia M. Cohn - 09/14/11 10:04 AM ET

A new Twitter hashtag designed to help fight misinformation against President Obama appears to have backfired in early use on Wednesday.

President Obama's Twitter feed, which is run by his campaign staff, on Tuesday evening started promoting the new website AttackWatch.com and hashtag #AttackWatch, designed to fight misinformation against the president.

The hashtag was already in heavy rotation by Twitter users by Wednesday morning, but many users are conservatives such as columnist Michelle Malkin, who offered up her own daily column as an example of an Obama "attack."

The website is meant to be "the first line of defense against a barrage of misinformation," according to an email from Obama's campaign manager announcing the launch on Tuesday.

Businessman Herman Cain, a Republican presidential hopeful, also responded to the announcement of the website on Wednesday.

"Seriously?" he tweeted.

Here are a few Tweets to show you what people are doing

Someone should ask Team Obama how they think #attackwatch is going to far. It's been a non-stop mockfest since it was unveiled
