Fred and all,
First, we have to make sure that Congress has a chance to "do the right 
thing".  In fact, the Farm Bill has passed both the House and the Senate. 

Check my post on the subject at California Greening.

Current word is that the President, in a rash of doing good things 
recently (2 this week), is going to veto the bill.  If he does, you will 
see Pelosi and company rail against the President over an issue of 
blocking the increase in food stamp funding.  This is just a smoke 
screen so that they look good to "bleeding heart liberals" (there still 
are some) while they
merrily barter away $ billions.  It is partisan politics at the most 
crass level.
