Whoever said silence speaks louder than words never uttered a truer sentence. I hope he’s screaming his head off when he’s led away in chains…

Is there anything worse than knowingly selling contaminated products to children? Parnell couldn’t have handled it much worse.

If pleading the 5th wasn’t incriminating enough, his instruction to employees to ship contaminated peanuts was outrageous. His lack of respect for human life is despicable.

Hi, David. In addition to “arrogant,” “outrageous” and “irresponsible,” you might add just plain “stupid.” Not even taking the simple step of acknowledging the seriousness of the issue or the plight of the victims is just classic “lawyering up” as they say on Law & Order. Just goes to magnify the story and dig the company hole even deeper.

Thanks for bringing this up. It is so sad, there are no limits to human stupidity… Where has this guy been the last 100 years?

Dr. Rus,

Honored to have a comment from you. On the peanut issue, words fail to fully describe the irresponsible words of the company’s CEO.

Hey David;

I too was amazed when I heard Parnell do this. I can’t get over the total disregard for what the company has done.

Thanks for your thoughts!
