hain is a host of brands, earth's best, garden of eden and the greek gods. you see them all behind me. we've liked this one for a long time. lately the stock has had a rough time. it's now about 16 points off the highs. so last night hain reports and while the company earns 72 cents a share, its revenues came in below expectations of some. on top of that, hain lowered its full-year revenue forecast. that's the kind of thing that sounds bad. but the company's organic revenue growth guidance was unchanged. from a pair of recent acquisitions and some one-time items like rationalizing the frozen food business in the uk. 16 brands were up double digits in the quarter. greek god's yogurt up. earth's best up 15%. celestial seasoning seeing the strongest tea numbers ever. should you buy in this weakness even though the stock's had trouble gaining traction of late? given us 211% gain and the underlying trend seems strong enough that hain should be able to return to its long-term upward trajectory. but do not take it from me. let's talk to irwin simon, the founder, ch

the world is a better place when america is the strongest nation on earth. but we can't remain powerful. if we don't have an economy that can afford it. in the short time i've been here in washington nothing has frustrated me more than false choices like the one the president laid out tonight. the choice isn't just between big government or big business. what we need is an accountable, efficient and effective government that allows small and new businesses to create more middle class jobs. we don't have to raise taxes to avoid the president's devastating cuts to our military. republicans have passed a plan that replaces these cuts with responsible spending reform. in order to balance our budget the choice doesn't have to be either higher taxes or dramatic benefit cuts for those in need. instead we should grow our economy so we can create new tax payers not new taxes. our government can afford to help those who truly can't help themselves. truth is every problem can't be solved by the government. many are caused by the moral breakdown in our society, and the
