Shocking results of Monsanto, Roundup cancer study spur global calls for 'immediate action' against GM crops
A French group studied the effects of Roundup (herbicide) on mice and found that it causes tumorous growths. They tested it with levels that are consistent with drinking water in many parts of America. Roundup (Glyphosate) was invented and patented by Monsanto. When approached for comment, Monsanto issued a statement that Roundup is not meant for drinking! That is true, however it does find its way into drinking water as field runoffs. Moreover, Monsanto's genetically modified corn is engineered such that it is resistant to glyphosate. Therefore, to control weeds in the cornfield, the entire field can be sprayed with roundup and that kills all weeds without affecting the corn plants. This large scale use of the herbicide is what is causing it to find its way into drinking water.
A lot of scientists are now trying to discredit the study though - why? Well your guess is as good as mine!

Investments?? hmm - now its the time to invest (buy).
Also considering investing in Bain because Romney may now just return to his old job, the one he does best. Make tons of money by calling bluffs and shipping jobs to China. Great! Thanks for drawing my attention to the opportunity.

"There have been times, Governor, frankly, during the course of this where it sounded like you thought that you'd do the same things we did but you'd say them louder and somehow that would make a difference." |

World's most viewed photo taken by Charles O’Rear.
This photo was taken by him on a drive to Napa valley and was purchased by Bill Gates. The photo became the default wall paper of Windows XP since 2002.
