e coli conservatives

Frank Guinta is an e coli conservative.

It really never occurred to me that right-wing Republicans would start running on a pro-salmonella platform, but Jesse Kelly and his Tea Party allies have a surprisingly twisted worldview. Kelly seriously seems to believe that laws to enforce food safety are unnecessary, and may ultimately make matters worse. Just let the free market work its magic, and everything will be fine.
Lucy Edwards :: e coli conservatives
My definition of an "e coli conservative" is:
not interested in conserving human health or life if it involves regulating business.

This is a women's issue (0.00 / 0)
only because we often end up with the lion's share of the food-related tasks and we deserve to not to have to wonder every time we shop if we are going to poison our families and friends.  It's why we get farmers markets going, why we want to know where our food comes from.

Lacy

And if you get e-coli in Kittery you can swim across the River to Portsmouth to go to the hospital.

But under Frank care, you'll probably get turned away anyway. After all it's your fault you ate contaminated meat.

Take responsibility!


oops spelling again (4.00 / 1)
L-U-C-Y

Lacy is a country western singer I can't "rid my mind of"


4 for saving the typo (0.00 / 0)
with word play.  I would give extra points for the musical reference if I could.
