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.
My definition of an "e coli conservative" is:
not interested in conserving human health or life if it involves regulating business.
