USDA-Approved Agent Orange: It’s Coming to a Farm Near You

This article is a little outlandish, but I get the author's point.  NEVER trust the government, especially where your health is concerned.  Oops, if that's a rule to live by, now what do we do about Obamacare?  I understand the concern over GMO seeds and 2,4-D, but 2,4-D was just one ingredient in Agent Orange and it's the main ingredient in the weed killer we use around our houses.

The real reason I wanted to post and comment on this article is that a friend of mine, a fellow parishioner, is on his death bed resulting from his exposure to Agent Orange while serving in the Marines in Vietnam.  He has had numerous health problems, attributed to the cruel orange stuff, and several years ago his health took a turn for the worse.  He's been on oxygen for about the last 5 years and unable to work, totally disabled from the debilitating effects of Agent Orange.  I just got word 2 days ago that he's in the hospital fighting for his life.  Please say a prayer for an ex-Marine.  Thank him for his service to this great nation and pray his pain and suffering are taken away.

And the article is correct that Agent Orange affects victim's offspring.  My friend's children have health issues directly attributed to his exposure.
