I have had such a boring day that I spent over an hour watching this debate on C-SPAN. I think Senator Chambliss made a much better argument than Senator Dodd did.

Not sure if this should be a priority of our government at the moment, but I don't see asking food vendors to fill out a few extra forms as a giant leap towards a totalitarian dictatorship.

You do realize the mega food companies like Cargill, Monsanto, Excel wanted this as a means of stomping out family run companies.
