Note to Bill O’Reilly: See, now this is exactly what Paul Krugman meant when he said the Bush administration used 9/11 to politicize everything.
WASHINGTON - “Cues from chatter” gathered around the world are raising concerns that terrorists might try to attack the domestic food and drug supply, particularly illegally imported prescription drugs, acting Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Lester M. Crawford says.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Crawford said Wednesday that he had been briefed about al-Qaida plans uncovered during recent arrests and raids, but declined further comment about any possible threats.
“While we must assume that such a threat exists generally, we have no specific information now about any al-Qaida threats to our food or drug supply,” said Brian Roehrkasse, spokesman for the Homeland Security Department.
Crawford said the possibility of such an attack was the most serious of his concerns about the increase in states and municipalities trying to import drugs from Canada to save money.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with the profits of Big Pharma, who are as close as you can get to a corporate equivalent to Mother Teresa. Yep.
I can’t wait to wake up from this national nightmare.
