Blunt outsourcing state milk safety inspections to... milk distributors

Last June, Matt Blunt took tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from individuals affiliated with the Dairy Farmers of America, a large milk marketing organization with offices in Kansas City.

Now comes word that the Blunt Administration is providing a five year, no-bid contract to DFA to conduct "state" safety testing on the milk it sells.

Only Matt Blunt would pay a fox to guard the hen house a marketer to tell the public its product is safe.
