Republicans once championed liberty against overbearing federal interference in the realm of dietary supplements, but the man who helped bring us McCain-Feingold is now pushing a bill that would assault this precious freedom. But many Americans have begun to stand against it.

Mccain is just what he always has been a neocon and not to be trusted! He betrayed his men in Vietnam and he is still betraying people his countryman now!! In Liberty Dan

We all need to rally around the Health Freedom Campaign to stop the McCain anti-DSHEA bill. See: http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/?p=4608 We see a connection between this bill, S 3002 and the other pending fake "Safety" bill in the Senate, the (sic) "Food Safety" bill S 510. We predict an attempt to combine them and force them through. Both together would create huge barriers against entry in the market and force the industrialization of food and supplements, destroying local, natural production. Not if we push back hard!

Food Supplements are going the way of the dodo in the EU. The US is clearly next unless we act now - in massive numbers, once for each member of your family, at http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY= 26714

So much for freedom! Will they make it a felony, too. Twenty years mandatory, in prison for, illegally, distributing VITAMINS! Vitamin dealers, THE REAL VERMIN!..... ;P

McCain, of course, sides with the continual erosion of freedom. He was a traitor as a soldier and has always been on board with the whims and wishes of the unConstitutional coup. He was a plant of the coup during the election, in case Obama was too much of an unknown entity for them to have come on board. But, no worry, an ambitious politician with aspirations to be a major ego-driven interventionist was an easy sell for the unConstitutional coup. The unConstitutional coup is trying to come at us from both directions. Rather than being worried I see it as a sign of their panic. Plus I know something for certain that they do not! The forces of economic equilibrium will wipe them out.
