SON OF ALAR: At Big Government, Robert James Bidinotto meets “The New Pesticide Scare Campaign,” finds it much the same as the old pesticide scare campaign:

The alar scare was just the opening salvo in the environmentalist barrage against man-made chemicals. Today’s atrazine scare — as Yogi Berra might put it — is “deja vu all over again.” And Yogi might also ask those of us burdened by this unending regulatory onslaught: “How do ya like them apples?”

Never let a crisis go to waste — even if you have to manufacture it in the first place.
