just another example of why we presently have NO government. Whose to blame??? You suckers who elected the current president because he declared that he was born again, or some other such rot.

You can''t MAKE people do their jobs. If they are incompetent, get rid of them. If they are following some political ideology, get rid of them.

Our food supply is too great of commodity to trust to political hacks, of any kind.

What in the hell are we paying these people for?

Time to get rid of every single government agency, they''''re not doing their jobs anyways.

Uh! Now I know some of you fascist have problems actually READING and UNDERSTANDING what is written but you have GOT to do better than this. THE people who are HIRED and PAYED to do these jobs regardless of who we put in the White House DID that. THEY REPORTED the problem as they were supposed too. The PROBLEM came in when the INCOMPETENT LOSERS who that pathetic piece of HUMAN TRASH, Bush, put in charge decided to just IGNORE the reports!! The PROBLEM isn''t in the agency that has done such a great job before Heir Bush. The Problem as it has been for nearly 8 years now, lies totally with the Bush Administration!! SIEG HEIL BUSH

This would not be a problem if people didnt insist on eating non-christian foods.

"We have not typically seen problems with peppers," Acheson said. "Our import sampling is typically focused on areas where we know we''ve got problems or we''ve seen problems in the past, which is why we''re now increasing our sampling for peppers."

On Monday, the FDA said Acheson''s comment was in relation to outbreaks or illness associated with Mexican peppers, not the rejection of pepper shipments at the borders. Calls to the FDA seeking elaboration were not immediately returned.


Translation:
''BLAH-BLAH-BLAH FDA BLAH-BLAH peppers BLAH-BLAH-BLAH gobbledygook.

I think the bureaucrats that run the FDA should get another big raise. Great job guys.
