Berman and pal David Martosko also lobby against laws to crack down on drunk drivers. Martosko in an interview with ABC News: "Government statistics and independent science confirm very clearly that the drunk driving problem in this country has been reduced to a small hard core of repeat offenders." Turns out Martosko was wrong, and you'd think he'd know better, since he's is a DUI offender himself: asleepatthewatch.blogspot.com/2010/05/center-for-consumer-freedom-has-few-too_20.html
You know who gave David Martosko an open forum last year to spread anti-PETA propaganda? Alex Jones. The 9/11 troof movement lost all credibility when the paranoid fatman sold out to the CCF. Oh, and the rumor that Jones' wife used to work for PETA? It's true.....but Richard Berman paid her to infiltrate PETA and did things to make them look bad. Google "Kelly Nichols" and "Anna Wintour".
Richard Berman and his lackey, David Martosko. Theyre the shadowy flim-flam artists who do dirty work for agribusiness, tobacco interests and the like. They are the people who tell you that mercury-laced fish won't harm pregnant women and trans fats arent bad for you. He is a pro-cockfighting, pro-sealing, pro-puppy mil, pro-factory farming, pro-captive shooting hack whose organization does nothing but tear animal protection down and clear a pathway for animal abusers. They need to be stopped.
how could anyone defend trans fat? It's crap, and just FYI sugar is not worse for your health than trans fat, anyone who thinks so is not well informed. With all the substitutes for trans fat why would you defend trans fat unless it was actually healthier than the alternatives. The bald guy in the suit is smooth, he could sell cigarettes to cancer patients and convince them they're doing no harm, fucking botox faced old man.
...Why would be banning trans fats be a BAD thing? It's not like they're going to ban MEAT or CAKE or PASTA. If they ban something like trans fat or high fructose corn syrup or hormones or whatever's in the food that's bad, wouldn't that mean that people would instead put better ingredients in the food instead? I don't think banning ingredients is going to make a huge impact or anything.
I love Fox News interviews. Put two sides on, interview the "liberal" side first, have the conservative side set up a strawman argument, have both the host and conservative commentator hammer on the strawman, come to an "objective" conclusion, the end.
I don't get why the fuck everyone's picking on trans fat. Bet you guys didn't know most processed meats (Spam,hot dogs)and bacon have a Carcinogenic (cancer promoting)chemical named sodium nitrite that acts as a preservative and gives the meat its red color. High fructose corn syrup,which is found in sodas,fruit juices,and even breads also promote health problems. And what about big pharma?FDA? There's a lot of corrupt shit going on out there and picking JUST on trans fat isn't going to solve em
Berman also profits from the fake "War on Terror" by attempting to get PETA listed as a terrorist orgnaization because it receives funding from the ALF and ELF. The ALF and ELF are nothing but CIA-created boogeymen just like al-Qaeda.
Why do you hate your country, you paranoid obesity troofer? (I'm not talking about you, MeMe. I'm talking about darthchaosofrspw. He believes the Rockefellers created the obesity epidemic. They didn't create the obesity epidemic, loonmuffin. MeMe, I'm sorry the paranoid obesity troofer has slandered and defamed you.)
The ban on transfat is wonderful. Everyone who argues that they are taking away the freedom of choice is just full of it. Most times we had no clue we were consuming trans fat and im sure if most people saw a sign that said "we fry with trans fat" most people wouldn't eat there. Down with trans fat. Down with margarine!
I don't really support Richard Berman's agenda of being a representative of big business, but he's pretty much right here.
If people want to eat cowshit, let them eat cowshit. If people want to eat trans fats, which seem to be as bad or maybe a little worse than saturated (but there is really no evidence of them being THAT much worse, from what I've seen), let them eat trans fats.
Hey MeMe, why don't you equally put the blame on the CSPI for praising trans fats in the 1980s? Oh that's right, you're just some phony liberal who gets her jollies by telling people to give up their liberties so they'll be protected by the food police. Hey, do us all a favor and go be Richard Berman's butt-whore. We all know you, the CSPI, and CCF are all in cahoots in "stealth eugenics".

I don't believe in food cops but trans fat is a toxic substance that does not belong in our food supply.
Fat are the cause of their obesity.
