GOP SENATOR GORDON SMITH: “EAT SHIT, AMERICA!” (No, really!)
UPDATED BELOW
Via Open Left, this is the most disgusting thing I have read in years. DO NOT EAT ANYTHING MADE BY SMITH FROZEN FOODS, a company owned by Oregon Republican tool Senator Gordon Smith:
I just got a Sierra Club press release with some very gross information about Gordon Smith’s company, Smith Frozen Foods. Apparently, Smith Frozen Foods started storing partially treated sewage from the town of Weston into his company’s wastewater pond in the 1980s, when Smith was directly controlling the company. That’s fine, it’s what companies do when they have lots of land and the ability to handle partially treated sewage. Here’s what’s not fine.
This water is then used to irrigate cropland, in violation of Department of Environmental Quality regulations. A mutual agreement between Smith and the [Department of Environmental Quality] indicates that this irrigation likely violated state regulations.
There’s more.
On more than one occasion,Smith Frozen Foods, the company owned by Gordon Smith, has violated Oregon’s laws against having coliform bacteria in their drinking water. The presence of coliform bacteria may indicate environmental contamination, fecal contamination or E. coli bacteria.
What is coliform bacteria?
Coliform bacteria are organisms that are present in the environment and in the feces of all warm-blooded animals and humans.
What a perfectly disgusting, and perfectly accurate, representation of the GOP: private interests profit, while the rest of America eats shit.
The bailout? $700 billion to banks, the rest of America can go eat shit.
Tax policy? Huge breaks for the wealthiest, nothing for the poor and middle class, who can go eat shit if they don’t like it.
The Iraq war? Billions to Halliburton, while the troops can go eat (and drink) shit.
After Hurricane Katrina, the GOP controlled government left Americans to drown in their own shit.
“Eat shit, America!” is the GOP’s unofficial slogan: Gordon Smith just took it to the next level.
Call your grocer (I’m going to) and tell them to stop stocking “>Smith Frozen Shit Frozen Foods.
UPDATE: Good lord it gets worse…
