I mean, this list probably only numbers in the dozens!!!
Monsanto's Friends - spanning five Administration's from Reagan on ... George W. Bush Bush, in effect, lobbies internationally for Monsanto ######## Linda Fisher Top lobbyist ######## Robert J Stevens Director ######## Wesleyan University Wesleyan is invested heavily in Monsanto. ######## Calgene Monsanto bought out Calgene in 1997 ######## Pharmacia Pharmacia purchased Monsanto in 2000 ######## Department of Homeland Security George Poste, DVM on the Board of Directors of Monsanto and appointed to Bio-terrorism division of Homeland Security by George Bush. ######## GD Searle & Company (Pharmacia Company) GD SEARLE & CO., INC. is part of MONSANTO COMPANYalong with PHARMACIA CORPORATION,and PFIZER INC. ######## Donald Rumsfeld Left DoD to join Searle and champion Aspertame approval in 1976. Rumsfeld, the current secretary of defense, was president of Searle Pharmaceuticals, now owned by Monsanto. ######## Michael A. Friedman, M.D Former former acting commissioner of the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Department of Health and Human Services Now senior vice-president for clinical affairs at G. D. Searle & Co.,... Michael Taylor Current head of FDA - Obama Appointee and Monsanto industry friend ######## Lidia Watrud former microbial biotechnology researcher at Monsanto Corporation in St. Louis, Missouri, now with the United States Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Effects Laboratory, Western Ecology ... ######## William D. Ruckelshaus former chief administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and over 12 years as a member of the board of directors of Monsanto Corporation ######## Cornell University Founder Ed Queeny dropped out of Cornell but the connection remained. Monsanto-funded rBGH trial at Cornell University was used to get FDA approval for the growth hormone and the ties are deep direct... ######## Michael (Mickey) Kantor Former United States Trade Representative, the Secretary of Commerce for the United States, and a member of the board of directors of Monsanto Corporation. ######## Rufus Yerxa Rufus Yerxa, Monsanto's chief counsel, has been appointed as the US deputy to the WTO. ######## World Trade Organization Rufus Yerxa, Monsanto's chief counsel, has been appointed as the US deputy to the WTO but from the beginning the WTO has worked for Monsanto. Once the dairy was settled it was on to hormone treated ... One thing you will never ever learn in the M$M is that the disruptive protests at the Seattle WTO meant that the meetings that would have forced GMO's down the throats of the European populace were not held. So now we do have some independent researchers in Europe who are able to study GMO's and come up with important conclusions - such as University of Caen (France) researchers recently discovering that there are indications that GMO foods are damaging to our kidneys and livers. (But who among us really needs their kidneys or liver working properly?) ######## Linda J. Fisher Vice President of Government and Public Affairs for Monsanto Corporation. Assistant Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Pollution Prevention, Pesticides ######## EPA Michael Taylor, William D. Ruckelshaus, Linda J. Fisher, Lidia Watrud,David W. Beler, Larry Zeph and more have all worked for both Monsanto Corporation and the Environmental Protection Agency. ######## Michael Taylor Attorney for Monsanto who rewrote the "regulations" for Genetically Modified foods. His brilliant addition is the "substantial equivalence" measure which says if the nutrition measures are the same. He now heads up the FDA (Obama Appointee) ######## Suzanne Sechen was a primary reviewer for rBGH in the Office of New Animal Drugs between 1988 and 1990. Before coming to the FDA, she had done research for several Monsanto-funded rBGH studies as a graduate student... ######## Toxic Dumping and Coverups If you're talking about PCBs, Agent Orange, Bovine Growth Hormone, water privatization, bio-piracy, untested/unlabeled genetically engineered organisms, or persecuting small family farmers, you're talking about Monsanto... Another coverup, and NOTE: it is every bit as important as the Love Canal Style of managing toxins, is that many toxins are SOLD TO US CONSUMERS. Glade, Febreeze, Lysol, all those spray-them- everywhere products advertised as allowing for your home and small business remain "odor and germ free" - those products contain (among other things) large enough amounts of formaldehyde, alkyls, phenols and benzene that the World Health Organization used to warn consumers about them. This way the big chemical manufacturers don't have to worry about taking dreaded chemicals off to the Super Fund sites. (An expensive habit to have to employ.) Instead they sell us those chemicals to spray in the air of our personal environments! This means they profit in several ways - one: no cost of dealing with the Super Funds. Two: they make a profit when YOU pay them for the toxins. Three: when you get cancer - they then can have you as a customer of their pharmaceutical subsidiaries! Win! Win! Win! ######## Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) US AID of GMO seeds offers market growth and protections under Order 81 which deals specifically with Plant Variety Protection (PVP) for patent protected, fee based, pesticide variety seeds. ######## Clarence Thomas Prior to being the Supreme Court Judge who put G.W. in office, Clarence Thomas was a Monsanto lawyer. ######## Center for Consumer Freedom Partially Monsanto-funded front group who launched a smear campaign against organic dairies for labeling or advertising milk and dairy products as "rBGH-free. ######## Anne Veneman U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Veneman was on the Board of Directors of Monsanto's Calgene Corporation and instrumental in promoting their Biotech agenda. ######## Dr. Arthur Hayes Jr. Monsanto is a primary funding source of the Dairy program headed by Hayes at Cornell. ######## Anne Gorsuch Burford Reagan's appointment to head the EPA who was forced to resign after two years in office for a Monsanto dioxin coverup at Times Beach delaying evacuation of residents by 11 years. ######## Ronald Reagan The Reagan White House ordered Burford to withhold documents on Times Beach and other contaminated sites in the states of Missouri and Arkansas, citing "executive privilege." ######## Michael Fumento BusinessWeek Online revealed payments Fumento received from agribusiness giant Monsanto (MON ) -- a frequent subject of praise in Fumento's opinion columns and book. ######## BioEvoloution The book's acknowledgements cite support from The Donner Foundation and "others who wish to remain anonymous." Fumento didn't disclose the payment from Monsanto either in the book or in at least eight followups. ######## American Seed Trade Association - asta FDA Crawford "Good morning, thank you Jim (Jim Tobin, Monsanto, Vice-Chair of ASTA) for your kind introduction. I’m pleased to meet with you this morning, and to participate in this historic joint me... ######## Bivings Group Bivings work, premised on the power of the Internet, engages in covert online attacks and web based front groups. Many promote GM "food" for chemical and biotechnology clients including Monsanto. ######## The Center for Food & Agricultural Research (CFFAR) CFFAR is one of dozens of Monsanto's world wide front organizations painting the virtues of GM "food" while the fee based seeds spread disease and disaster. ######## Congress of Racial Equality In a never ending search to put a good face on a dirty business Monsanto has $$$$ favor at CORE to co-promote fee based, Terminator and Frankenseed technology. ######## IRAN Iran's scientists crafted a crop of GM rice plants at the International Rice Research Institute, sister org of the International Food Policy Research Institute, both Industry funded Fronts. Not just... ######## Mike Rogers H.R. 4167 sponsored by Mike is designed to strip away the power of states to pass laws labeling GE/GMO ingredients in foods. ######## Baker, Donelson Bearman & Caldwell Client for lobbying. Jeffrey Bergner Top client. Conrad Burns Monsanto's $$ support is paying dividends as Burns supports testing pesticides on human subjects. John L. Henshaw Director of Environment, Safety and Health for Monsanto's Soloutia subsidiary spun off to avoid PCB settlement payments and Monsanto Corporate Stewardship. ######## Indo-US Knowledge Initiative Monsanto and WalMart have control of the board as the US helps to create a market for growing and selling biotech's Frankenfood crops banned in the EU, Japan and much of Eastern Europe. ######## Novelle Consulting Novelle principle Danilo S. Lopez is from the top ranks of the early biotech. As one time Calgene President and CEO Lopez overcame the ill fated, early Frankenfood FlavRsaver tomato PR nightmare. M... ######## Frankenfood Monsanto maker of PCB's and Agent Orange introduced it's first in 1984. Hormone milk, rBGH is banned worldwide still.

These low Trans fat itemsnow in our groceries are labeled that because they contain oil from the GMO soybeans that Monsanto has patented.
So if you eat some of that stuff, you are not going to get healthier - liver and kidney damage is not a good thing to endure, even if products are lower in terms of the Trans fats.. (University of Caen Researcher is saying that there are indications that the GMO's are not good for our kidneys and liver.) |

Making me sick for quite a long time.
And last week I caught Bill Clinton speaking at something called "The Global Health Initiative" which has as one of its subsidiaries something called "The Global Food Distribution Initiative" I am imagining that despite all the happy talk and posturing slogans - "Good for the health of the poor," "This is being done for the children," a lot of this is about putting huge amounts of money into the coffers of Big Pharma (In the case of "The Global Health Initiative") and the coffers of Big Agri-Interests like Monsanto when it comes to "The Global Food Distribution Initiative." |
