The "Monsanto Rider": Are Biotech Companies About to Gain Immunity from Federal Law?

"A so-called "Monsanto rider," quietly slipped into the multi-billion dollar FY 2013 Agricultural Appropriations bill, would require – not just allow, but require - the Secretary of Agriculture to grant a temporary permit for the planting or cultivation of a genetically engineered crop, even if a federal court has ordered the planting be halted"  ... "and the questionable crops could be released into the environment where they could potentially contaminate conventional or organic crops and, ultimately, the nation's food supply."

Folks, while I would VERY much like to blame this corruption on the Republi-con party and its corporate interests the FACTS are that Obama and 40-70% of the so-called "Democrats" are on board with these CRIMES as well. OUT-FRIGGIN-RAGEOUS!!!
