[lbo-talk] Canadian cattle cross border into U.S.

[Mycos]

How about the timing of this, huh? In the news recently there were 
reports of BSC-infected cattle in the US. It made a minor kerfuffle, 
even though there were people warning about a cover-up of similarly 
affected cattle more than a year or so ago. I think I even blogged 
or told the group about this several months ago now.

But in any case, now that the cats out of the bag, I can't help but 
be cynical about the reasons why they would suddenly want some 
Canadian cattle back in the US food chain. It occurs to me it would 
make for some great cover in any lawsuits that might be pending as a 
result of people coming down with the human form of BSC in future.
