Thought you’d like to know the whole animal tagging program has been cancelled due to funding.

I knew about it but you broke it down beautifully. You can keep track of it here: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-875 in case you haven't posted this link. Whether one believes in Revelations or not, it does seem extremely fascist at the very least. Ironically, I am unaware of whether any of the factory farm lobby are working against this bill despite having had the freedom to feed us sick animals for years. You would think that they of all lobbies would be hot on the heals of such matters but I suspect that they are a part of the epicenter supporting it along with Monsanto. To know if your voice is going to be heard on this matter at all, check up on your congressman and senators to see who has made contributions to them. Monsanto has contributed to some of mine.

What's even more astonishing is the amount of people who see nothing wrong with this or the health care bill or the fairness doctrine, Mother's Act,..... What does it lead us down to? I've told people this plenty of times and a US Marine spoke in a townhall meeting in WA state, but our country has come so closely similar to that of Nazi Germany. It's no joke! We really have because of corrupt politicians who serve no other than themselves and the people who buy them off. Hitler came into power by appealing to the middle class (same as Bush and Obama) Hitler then kept his campaign promises for "change". (Sound familar?) Because people were leary of some of Hitler's policies, a staged terrorist act happened that burned their Parliment Building down. People began to scream for their government to take care of them.(9/11 anyone?) Germany's congress initiates sweeping changes to their laws and enact a homeland security act very much the same to our Patriot Act. I can go on like this but it would take up a lot of space. End times? Oh yeah! We're so there. Siska There’s so much going on in Washington DC that sometimes it makes my head spin.

Yep, sounds exactly like the direction in which our "lawmakers" are headed. It's just like Congress to not be able to think ten seconds into the future to see what their schemes will do to the average Joe.

Still a sucky prospect, that's for sure. Have you read the book "Everything I Want to do is Illegal" by Joel Salatin? Good book. :) I bet you'd like it (well, in between being outraged, but still).

The CPSIA one was put on hold after all the commotion so it hasn't officially come to be enforced, but hey, if the gov't needs to go after the wahm's that sew cloth diapers for folks in order to pay for their huge deficit, well... :( I've already told friends that I'll expect them to come visit me in jail. *sigh* HR 875 was apparently already passed this week or so. :( There’s another bill that is it’s partner, SB 425 or whatever, haven’t heard anything about that one though.

I do not see freedom listed anywhere in this! I heard last night that the UN started this idea up. Good luck all you homesteaders out there. I do not homestead but I completely support you all. I will definetly pray about this mess. I am shocked and disgusted with what the government has slowly been doing to our lives. I do not see freedom listed anywhere in this!
