“We have a food safety crisis on the horizon,” said Michael Doyle, director of the Center for Food Safety at the University of Georgia. After the Sept. 11 attacks, the FDA, at the urging of Congress, increased the number of food inspectors and inspections amid fears that the nation’s food system was vulnerable to terrorists. Inspectors and inspections spiked in 2003, but now both have fallen enough to erase the gains. http://rawstory.com/showarticle.php?...%2F17349427%2F

Okay, is there anything - ANYTHING - that we are getting right?!

Remember, Bush got more lax on work safety, hence the incident at the mine.

Now we've had some recent food safety situations and experts are telling us to expect that to rise. Well, whoop-dee-doo!!! Is there anything this administration can perform effectively for the American people?!
