    Scientist that Discovered GMO Health Hazards Immediately Fired, Team Dismantled | World Truth. TV


    Though it barely received any media attention at the time, a renowned British biochemist who back in 1998 exposed the shocking truth about how genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) cause organ damage, reproductive failure, digestive dysfunction, impaired immunity, and cancer, among many other conditions, was immediately fired from his job, and the team of researchers who assisted him dismissed from their post within 24 hours from the time when the findings went public.

    Arpad Pusztai, who is considered to be one of the world’s most respected and well-learned biochemists, had for three years led a team of researchers from Scotland’s prestigious Rowett Research Institute (RRI) in studying the health effects of a novel GM potato with built-in Bt toxin. Much to the surprise of many, the team discovered that, contrary to industry rhetoric, Bt potato was responsible for causing severe health damage in test rats, a fact that was quickly relayed to the media out of concern for public hearing.

    These should be renamed Obama Bump's as you go into Obamacare Death Panels; so they can recognize the cause of the massive tumors

    Thumbs up... you get poor treatmeant and suffer as the Banksters collect Obama bucks from Obamacare

    Thumbs down from the Death Panel .. wear your Obama bumps and take them to the Grave with you

    by the way

    these Bumps dont know if you are a Democrat or a Republican so Obama got you Liberals and your children as well ... he got you too; and you and you and you

    OBAMABUMPS for All Americans "Except the Elite"

    'Monsanto Protection Act' Roll Call: How Did Your Congressperson Vote On HR 933?

    By Connor Adams Sheets | March 28 2013 1:32 PM

    Reuters

    How did your member of Congress vote on the bill containing the "Monsanto Protection Act"?

    Inside The 'Monsanto Protection Act'


    Furor Rises Over 'Monsanto Protection...

    A national chorus of rage is rising over the "Monsanto Protection Act," a provision of the HR 933 spending bill that was passed by Congress this month and signed into law Tuesday by President Barack Obama.

    Many voters will be wondering how their members of Congress voted on the HR 933 continuing resolution.

    This article provides a brief primer on the criticisms of Section 735 of the bill -- a provision that opponents have dubbed the "Monsanto Protection Act" -- followed by a breakdown of how each member of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives voted on it.

    The language in Section 735 effectively bars federal courts from being able to halt the sale or planting of genetically modified crops and seeds, no matter what health consequences from their consumption may come to light in the future, according to interpretations of the law included in a petition against the provision that was circulated by the advocacy group Food Democracy Now.

    "This provision is simply an industry ploy to continue to sell genetically engineered seeds even when a court of law has found they were approved by USDA illegally," the petition stated. "It is unnecessary and an unprecedented attack on U.S. judicial review. Congress should not be meddling with the judicial review process based solely on the special interest of a handful of companies. Many food safety advocates maintain that there have not been enough studies into the potential health risks of GMO and GE seeds and crops, and the judicial power to stop companies from selling or planting them was one key recourse they were relying on to stop them from being sold if health risks come to light."

    The petition was signed by more than 200,000 people during a drive aimed at gettingObama to veto the bill that Congress sent to his desk. But their effort was not able to sway Obama, and the provision is now in force for the six months during which the continuing provision will remain the law of the land.

    Now protesters, food advocates, organic farmers and others are coming together in a push either for Section 735 to somehow be repealed, or at least for it to be struck from any permanent legislation that will likely arise as the period of the continuing resolution draws to a close later this year.

    Below is a breakdown of the congressional voting record on HR 933, which provides insight into just how the bill, Section 735 included, made it from the Capitol to the White House:
