As you read this, or anything similar, remember this:
The US-FDA and USDA, along with the US-CDC have comprehensive state of the art bio-genetic research technology which can trace the genetic makeup, the actual DNA strain, of a potato, to the field where it was grown.
If it were a large field, they can even narrow it to the GPS level mapping coordinates within the field itself….. and this can all be accomplished on mobile research platforms.
I gave instruction within a bio-genetic lab (in another venue) 30 years ago where the origin for this process was created. Their genetic tracing capability is far beyond the human genome project. This is real science. Practical, applicable, provable and certain science.
MEXICO – The Food and Drug Administration says an outbreak of stomach illnesses in Iowa and Nebraska is linked to salad mix served at local Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants and supplied by a Mexican farm.
The outbreak of cyclospora infections has sickened more than 400 people in 16 states in all. The agency says it is still working to determine whether the salad mix is the source of illnesses in the other 14 states. (more…)
Earlier in the week we nominated Pam Geller and BigFurHat for pass-a-long recognition.
They have both responded, and also Passed It Forward:
Here’s Pam (Click Here) and Here’s Biggie (Click Here and also Here)
The Right Truth has nominated The Conservative Treehouse for recognition. That means they are recognizing YOU. Because, as Jack Cashill rightly described, the Treehouse is a blogging “collective”. We are not, ‘one person’ – We are, ‘one conversation’.
We have no idea how this stuff works, but are humbled that your efforts are attended. That said, here is the notation describing the approach: There is no voting for this award, just a nod from a friend or maybe someone you don’t even know who thinks your work bears merit. Thanks to The Right Truth. Please visit their blog at the above link.

Regarding the George Zimmerman case and our research: I know many people have developed questions over the past 16 months. Questions about how we knew, who we knew, what we knew, when we knew, etc. etc. Here’s your opportunity to ask those questions. We have turned down every single media request ever received, but this is for the people that matter, not them – YOU.
Here’s the rules:
All Questions are OK – Nothing off the table.
Each question must be in an individual comment. If you have multiple questions, separate them.
Do not ask highly compounded questions. If you have a compound question, break it down into it’s central parts and ask each question individually (in separate comments)
After answer, only the original commentator should post with any follow-up within their comment block.
You can ask as many questions as you want. I’ll answer all I can.
I will not put anyone’s life, or identity, at risk.
If I do not know – I’ll tell you I don’t know.
If the answer would take too much time – I’ll note that in response, and then return later.

Update from Admin: COMMENTS HAVE BEEN TURNED OFF ON THIS POST
First and Foremost: THANK YOU !
I personally want to thank the hundreds of people who have provided information, sent research documents, e-mailed, reached out with links and considerations, and all manner of mega-dots (big and small) which helped assemble the TRUE story of who, what, when, where and why the entire fiasco was constructed.
More importantly, it is appropriate to thank EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU who held the line, stayed the course, provided no quarter, and pushed back. At first you helped provide desperately needed breathing space. Then, eventually, enough constructural information to assist in freedom for George Zimmerman.
Do not ever doubt how much you matter. This truly was an epic David VS. Goliath battle.
Every Treeper made it possible. My deepest appreciation and profound respect to each and every one of you.
Now, down to business. (more…)
I ain’t never quit, never once taught that word;
Perhaps Mom, Dad and Pops knew it better not heard.
Never paid it no mind – I can honestly say,
Seems a good thing right now at the end of a day.
I’m looking around lately, and beginning to find…
We’ve got a lot of folks tending to ease their own mind,
By giving up – reconciling, the getting there’s too rough…
Or maybe they quit because they ain’t never learned TOUGH.
I do not rightly know, because tough is what matters;
It’s the fire and the anvil, ‘makes sure iron doesn’t shatter.
It’s the grit in your gut, that demands no retreat…
You can learn it,… or live it,… or suffer defeat.
Periodically we admins here at the Treehouse feel it would be helpful to review some basic guidelines and courtesies we observe, especially when we are welcoming a number of new Treepers to our ranks. Sometimes it coincides with a need to let the dust settle and remind a few veterans also. At any rate, in the interest of making our jobs easier and bringing a better experience to all who share our branches, we will revisit some basic expectations.
Also remember the most important point please. We are here to make a difference. We are here to wake people up, to make them dig a little deeper, so that they no longer accept the so called party line, but begin to look for the truth and use that as the basis for decision making. When necessary, we expose agendas and deceit. We educate, we hope to inspire, we aspire to action, as individuals and as community.
Community, that is an important word, and one that seems not as real in the lives of people today as it has been in times past. We are indeed a community here at The Conservative Treehouse, and as we welcome you to join us, we ask you to respect us, our fellow Treepers, and what we are all trying to do here. (more…)
