    So the Secretary thinks that the plants themselves should be held responsible for bacteria problems, not the USDA. The USDA is there (everyday, by the way) only to make sure the plants are following USDA rules.

    So what happened in Nebraska?? The plant was not following the rules but where was the USDA inspector and what was he\she doing????

    By the way, saying that th U. S. beef is ‘generally’ safe does not inspire confidence. Pass me the chicken fingers, please….

    “generally safe”???? How would Schafer feel if his doctor told him his medication was “generally safe”, but it “could” kill him? What kind of quality standards does this highly compensated federal employee use? Did you notice this country never had these problems until recently. I have a theory. The e-coli was always there. It’s just that people used to be more diligent in COOKING THE FREAKING MEAT. If you cook it, you kill the e-coli. A little bit of common sense might help the problem.

    Ive eaten raw meet before in the woods with friends. They ended up with ecoli poisoning, but somehow my system fought it off. The Dr’s were impressed. Now my friends call me cave man.
