    \”Clinton lied, nobody died…\”
    C\’mon now. If you really want to live and play in that naive world, I could follow with : at least Bush is trying to save the world, while Clinton was ignoring Bin Laden because he was too busy dropping his pants in the oval office and then trying to take the focus off of his sick behavior by bombing aspirin factories.
    Do I feel better? Not really. Does it serve any purpose? Not so much.
    Carry on.

    Durbin announces pet-food hearing
    Last Updated 4/5/2007 4:25:44 PM

    CHICAGO (CNS) – A U.S. Senate subcommittee will examine the recent recall of contaminated pet food and consider ways to make products safer for cats and dogs, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin said today.

    Durbin, a Springfield Democrat, said Menu Food Inc.\’s voluntary recall of 60 millions cans and pouches of wet pet food in mid-March came several days after the manufacturer first noticed potential problems with the products. He also faulted a decentralized federal system for inspecting processing plants.

    \”This was a breakdown and a failure,\” Durbin, joined by several dogs and their owners, said during a news conference at a Chicago park. \”It has brought a lot of pain, a lot of heartache and a lot of worry to pet owners all across America. We can do a better job in Washington.\”

    Durbin said at least 15 dogs and cats are believed to have been fatally poisoned by the Menu Foods products, which include dozens of brands, but the number of animal deaths could be considerably higher. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration determined that Chinese-imported wheat gluten used in the food was contaminated with a form of rat poison.

    The Senate Agriculture Appropriations Subcommittee will hold a hearing on the poisonings within the next couple of weeks, said Durbin, the Senate\’s majority whip. He said witnesses will include FDA officials and outside experts.
