U.S. Food and Water Supply Poisoned by Perchlorate

[Guest guest]

(NaturalNews) According to a report by the Organic Consumers

Association, a toxic chemical that is a byproduct of rocket fuel is

rapidly poisoning the food and water supply in the United States.

Known as perchlorate, this chemical has been found in 93% of the

nation's milk and lettuce supply in a recent FDA study. It has also

been found in the drinking water for at least 22 states at extremely

alarming levels. Perhaps the scariest statistic is that perchlorate

has been found in the breast milk of 97% of the mothers who were tested.

Bush Seeks Liability Shield On Perchlorate Pollution

BY PETER WALDMAN STAFF REPORTER OF THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

Word Count: 486

The Bush administration, in the name of military " readiness, " is asking Congress

to shield

the Pentagon and certain defense contractors from a broad array of environmental

laws --

exemptions that among other things could greatly diminish the defense

establishment's

I couldn't agree with you more about the vaccine issue just being one more

symptom of the

larger problem. Sadly, neither of the viable candidates is going to change the

situation.

We're offered the left and right wing of the Corporatist Party. Period.
