Good, now all americans will DIE!!!! HA HA HA HA!!!!!

Want some ketchup on that?

And as I mentioned in the Morning News, Congressman Dennis Kucinich introduced 35 articles of impeachment against President George W. Bush.

Pity he chose to do it at a time that news of his doing so would be overshadowed by some bad tomatoes.

Ho, hum. United States Congressional representative exposes treasonous actions by President of the United States on the floor of the House. Did anyone catch Dancing with the Stars last night?

I think it is interesting and says a lot that the articles I've seen about the tomato problem only speak about tomatoes in the context of burgers. I guess more people are eating their tomatoes on Big Macs than in Tomato-Bocciccini salad?

The Post's art director should be staked to the ground and covered with honey and fire ants.

Dennis Kucinich jerks off every day. It isn't news.

South Koreans are practically rioting over their government's decision to start buying beef again from the U.S. because they understand better than Americans do how completely shoddy and toothless our process for screening for disease in our food supply is. And yet this merits nary a mention in our domestic media. Now a few bad tomatoes turn up, and suddenly it's "Our burgers are in danger!"

The tomato industry clearly needs to hire better lawyers and lobbyists. The lesson from the beef industry is clear: If you stop checking for pathogens, you won't find any. Also, if you sue anybody (Oprah) who says anything negative about your (dangerous) product, all the bad publicity magically goes away.

WTF is a "red round tomatoe"? except for, basically, every tomatoe that exists?

Oh, Max. Get to a farmer's market. Only a tiny portion of the tomato varieties we eat are red and round. I'm partial to the black ones myself.

I like the big lumpy streaky green ones.
