Yeah, that snopes link was in the comments..
I used to rely heavily on snopes, but I have come to believe that they, too, have an agenda...but anyway, I totally agree with you about the FDA.
True or not, it is another wake up call for us to learn about herbal meds while we still have the resources to do so.
As usual legislation is passed to be vague enough to incorporate anything the government wants it to include, or not include as the case may be. How have you been Sage? Is your well still 'wet'? Did those seeds I sent do anything for you?

Quickly I checked it out on snopes.com which gives it a "mixed" true/false report.
http://www.snopes.com/politics/medical/vitamins.asp
It seems aimed at dietary supplements which contain stimulants, not vitamins and minerals. But I have always believed the FDA, under all political regimes works to protect the pharmaceutical interests, not necessarily the people. And that it passes a lot of pharmaceuticals that shouldn't be on the market.

Another strike against him, IMO.
