<link>http://www.colorado-yardening.com/the-obama-disconnect.html</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Oct 2009 14:09:49 -0700</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[ Because I admire the First Lady’s good example, I am shocked by the chemical agribusiness and biotech cheerleading of her husband’s administration. From USDA and FDA appointments of biotech and chemical industry insiders, to support for the preposterous idea that genetic engineering can feed the world, it is obvious that the Obama Administration is happy to assist agribusiness in its quest. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ "Increased competition" is a euphemism for racketeering. I'll assume that foreign organic soy bean producers are indeed organic. And I'll assume that they charge a lot less than their American counterparts. Basically it comes down to the buyer holding a loaded gun to the American farmers head and asking them to commit financial suicide. ]]></description>
