I hope the bill fails. I see we have the best government money can buy. It came to no surprise that the two communists from arkansas voted for the bill.

Wow good work on tracking down all the bribes. You got one thing wrong tho. Not all 'Veterinarians' support it. I'm a veterinarian and I know I sure as hell do not. You meant to say that the American Veterinary Medical Association supports it. Which they do. I sent the AVMA an email the other day telling them how sorely disappointed I am that they should support this latest fetid peice of fascist legislation. Of course, no response. The American Veterinary Medical Association does not represent it's members at all. They are a snobbish,unionish, fascist orgaization that cajoles it's 'members' into continuing their memberships because that's the cheapest way of obtaining malpractice insurance. (Their malpractice insurance requires membership). The only other benefit to membership is their (essentially worthless) journal, which every veterinarian that I know just tosses in the trash upon recieving. So please don't say that veterinarians support S 510. This one emphati
cally does not. (Hey, I have a garden- and so do lots of my clients!!)
