The father of the act was Henry Waxman and the mother was Nasty Pelosi. The act was powered by millions in campaign contributions from Monsanto Corporation. In other words, the act reeks of bribery and corruption.
I urge you to do your own research on HR 2749. Among other things, it outlaws all natural and organic food. It mandates food crops grown in the U.S. to be grown in a 'sterile environment' free of everything but Monsanto's genetically modified seeds. The act reeks of totalitarian control of all American food production. It will also outlaw all organic and natural food stores in the U.S. In the state of Oregon, this was the only bright spot in our recession-raped economy. Passage of the act will throw thousands more out of work.

Time is very short: The act will go to the U.S. Senate immediately after the August recess !
You know what to do in the meantime. If you do not take action right away, Obama has promised to sign the act into law immediately.

Paranoid much?
Please go take your meds. Now.
Now why would Monsanto want to get rid of 93% of the world's population?
The demand for RoundUp Ready corn and soybeans would take a big hit.

Good post. I’ve been aware of codex for some time, have written my congressmen about it. It is rather daunting to consider this with cap and trade, health care, etc. Amounts to a bloodless coup.

(rolling eyes) So now it's unhealthy for women to use a popular feminine hygiene product? Sheesh.
CODEX
Some Codex standards that will take effect on December 31, 2009 and, once initiated, are completely irrevocable include:
* All nutrients (vitamins and minerals) are to be considered toxins/poisons and are to be removed from all food because Codex prohibits the use of nutrients to “prevent, treat or cure any condition or disease”
* All food (including organic) is to be irradiated, removing all toxic nutrients from food (unless eaten locally and raw).
* Nutrients allowed will be limited to a Positive List developed by Codex that will include such beneficial nutrients like Fluoride (3.8 mg daily) developed from environmental waste. All other nutrients will be prohibited nationally and internationally to all Codex-compliant countries [2].
* All nutrients (e.g., CoQ10, Vitamins A, B, C, D, Zinc and Magnesium) that have any positive health impact on the body will be deemed illegal under Codex and are to be reduced to amounts negligible to humans’ health [3].
* You will not even be able to obtain these anywhere in the world even with a prescription.
* All advice on nutrition (including written online or journal articles or oral advice to a friend, family member or anyone) will be illegal. This includes naturalnews.com reports on vitamins and minerals and all nutritionist’s consultations.
* All dairy cows are to be treated with Monsanto’s recombinant bovine growth hormone.
* All animals used for food are to be treated with potent antibiotics and exogenous growth hormones.
* The reintroduction of deadly and carcinogenic organic pesticides that in 1991, 176 countries (including the U.S.) have banned worldwide including 7 of the 12 worst at the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pesticides (e.g., Hexachlorobenzene, Toxaphene, and Aldrin) will be allowed back into food at elevated levels [4].
* Dangerous and toxic levels (0.5 ppb) of aflotoxin in milk produced from moldy storage conditions of animal feed will be allowed. Aflotoxin is the second most potent (non-radiation) carcinogenic compound known to man.
* Mandatory use of growth hormones and antibiotics on all food herds, fish and flocks
* Worldwide implementation of unlabeled GMOs into crops, animals, fish and trees.
* Elevated levels of residue from pesticides and insecticides that are toxic to humans and animals.

Remember that time when.... “Gee guys, Moses has been up on that hill an awfully long time; he and his God must be dead! So hey, let’s throw all our gold into the fire and have a big party(D) in honor of what comes out!”
It’s a Baal out, get it? Badumpump ;->
I heard it was 30 billion.
Thanks for the post, why would anyone think this is not possible with what we see going on in our Congress today. Every thread is about what this socialist government is doing to us and yet they question this? thanks again.
This was part of what I was thinking of when we were in the Sams’ vitamin area.

The same kind of nonsense came at George W. Bush, but he toned down or refused the worst of it. Obama can’t have enough socialism, and damn the foolishness of it. We can NOT depend on the system to take care of itself today. We must oppose!
