OBAMA TO MAKE ORGANIC FARMING ILLEGAL – HR875 and S425 Explained – STOP THE NWO!
Category: Videos
I recorded this from the Thom Hartmann show on Air America 3/26/2009. It was the first time I heard this mentioned in the media at all. I was thrilled. Especially after that PR stunt that the White House did with Michelle Obama planting an organic garden. What a load of crap….yet the Obots love it. This segment of the show ran 1 hour with phone calls and 1 other interview. I have it all and will post it if wanted. This portion is the most informative of what HR875 really is. Get the word out. Time to wake up guys. Hey Congress….we are watching and you will be gone.
