Is Obama responsible for this, too?? If the GOP was on their game wouldn't they be going after the Dems about this? I can buy giant boneless skinless chicken breast for $1.99/lb but bacon going for $7-8/lb? Need the pork rinders to take notice and start a rally at the convention. It all starts right here, Eggers! Let's rock!!
