rats vs. kids

The EPA decision discussed in this Minnesota editorial would have made a great campaign commercial for John Kerry. Too bad he didn't think of it.

"So far this year, poison-control centers have reported about 50,000 cases of children under 6 requiring medical treatment for accidental ingestion of rat poisons, whose effects can include internal bleeding, anemia and coma. That's three times as many as in the first full year of the childproofing requirements."
