[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 12591"] Let' see how well our government handles the situation with an election coming up. George Bush is a known supporter of American farmers as he is one himself. Does anyone else think the media is ruining things for us prematurely? The entire world has a beef scare and clinical proof isn't available yet? Frankly I still have a great deal of confidence that this issue will be cleared up and we will be back to business as usual in several months. I was planning to market a load of calves in two weeks. I'll be watching the bulletins to see what happens with live cattle prices. If they take a dump, I'll have to hold the calves on thin pastures away from the cows, wean them and wait for the smoke to rise. I wonder if the industry is thinking the same thing? When the smoke does rise it will still be difficult on pricing because of the volume available. > OK, technically the posts I > deleted didn't contain profanity. > But the intent was there.
