It's not a political issue. I agree with World Traveler. If you're
regularly using a Weed n Feed type of product, something is very wrong.
These products are OK if you're trying to get a lawn that has
desirable grass, but is full of weeds do to lack of care, under
control. Then, they can be used appropriately a couple of times.
After that, all that should be required is a pre-emergent crabgrass
control and occasional spot weed control which uses a small amount of
herbicide compared to just throwing it all over the lawn.

A healthy properly cared for lawn is thick enough to keep most of the
weeds out to begin with. Indiscriminate and heavy application of
herbicides is both unnecessary and bad practice. And where do you
think all those chemicals eventually wind up? Apparently, James is
more worried about what they might do to some shrubs than children,
pets, wildlife, or our water supply.
