Video of a politician giving another human being something desperately needed and life-sustaining?

Never thought I’d see the day.

Shrugs right back at you, the person that runs that website is the director of a BPA lobby group.

The information may be correct (and would it have killed you to link to it), but just remember where it’s coming from.  
I also find it odd that he has several websites dedicated to this. factsaboutbpa . org, bisphenol-a . org, not to mention a lot of articles on AmericanChemistryCouncil . com.

I recall another chemical lobby person saying that glyphosate was perfectly safe to drink…as in you could drink a glass of it and you’d be fine. Unsurprisingly, he walked out of the interview when they called his bluff, saying he’s not an idiot and calling the interviewer a jerk.

Again, BPA may be totally safe, but lets not get our information from a source that’s paid to say good things about it.

You think the EPA, the FDA, the European Commission’s Scientific Committee on Food, and the United Kingdom Food Standards Agency are paid to say good things about BPA? Like I said, _:shrug:_

If I show you my boob, would that convince you?

Don’t tell me people wouldn’t pay attention to a talking boob.

Shodan’s Law - if they didn’t read it the first time, they won’t read it the second time either.
