Justin Cariker grabs a 7-foot-tall Palmer pigweed at his farm, bending
the wrist-thick stem to reveal how it has overwhelmed the cotton plant
beneath it. This is no ordinary weed: Over time it has developed
resistance to Monsanto's best-selling herbicide, Roundup. Hundreds of
such "superweeds" are rising defiantly across this corner of the
Mississippi Delta. "We're not winning the battle," Cariker, owner of
Maud Farms in Dundee, Miss., says as he looks at weeds that tower over
his infested cotton field like spindly green scarecrows.

Good article.

...and I'll bet the cotton it's outgrowing is Monsanto engineered too.

The "fear mongering"comes not from the "liberal media" -- what little
is left -- but from the far, far, far Right corporate/evangelical
media, well-funded, well-controlled,
that understand how to influence the sheeple. THEY are the ones who
are scaring people to death about "terrorism" for just one thing. And
they are systematically fielding whore scientists to create doubt in
people's minds about global warming. Just as they (e.g. the Marshall
Institute) did the same thing with the ozone layer, acid rain, dangers
of tobacco, DDT, etc. Anything to keep on making money with no care
for the health of people or the environment.
