I found this to be kind of funny. Some agribusiness trade group has asked
Michelle Obama to think of using pesticides when planning her organic
garden. I can understand this trade group sending Michelle a letter
privately but they also made this letter public. Since Michelle's garden
will inspire a lot of people to get into gardening this year, it takes a
lot of gall to try and promote your pesticide industry when a little
dishwater soap and water works just as well. If lobbyists are this petty
I can only wonder what Michelle's husband has to deal with on the real
issues. Oh well, here's the link:
