These has never been a single reputable study by anyone anywhere that has shown GMO anything to be unhealthy.

Just curious, who is doing these studies and not funded by Monsanto?

Studies cost a lot of money, and usually no one but the manufacturer is willing to shell out for them. Which is why we spent decades being told that cigarettes aren't bad for you (nay, they're actually good for you!), and still get medicines that aren't pulled off the market until years after the manufacturer-funded studies show that they are harmful.

I guess the idea is that if someone can keep her job despite not conforming, she must be really good at it.

Then there's the talking heads on the Sunday television shows, who can be wrong as often as they please and not suffer the slightest risk of losing their jobs.

Or the investment advisors. IIRC someone tracked Cramer's buy/sell advice for a year and found that he had a 49% track record - you would have done slightly better by flipping a coin.

Once those pesky real journalists that insist on facts and sources start digging into this, I'd expect the cataclysmic claims will be slowly walked back to something much less sinister, like almost all other claims of thwarted plots.

Are you serious? One of their agents saw that they had the intention!

Let's see, you ask me what kind of Ferrari I drive, I say 'none', and you say that's a kind of Ferrari.

And you express that idiotic view with a glaring logical fallacy: If religion is a collection of beliefs, it does not follow that every collection of beliefs is a religion.

Hope you were just out for a troll...
