Whether Medical Device or Meat, It’s Preempted

For this one, we go to the wisdom of Homer:

(Lisa) “I’m going to become a vegetarian”

(Homer) “Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?”

(Lisa) “No”

(Homer) “Ham?”

(Lisa) “No.”

(Homer) “Pork Chops?”

(Lisa) “Dad, those all come from the same animal.”

(Homer) “Heh, heh, heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.”

("The Simpsons" Lisa the Vegetarian (1995).) That wonderful, magical animal yesterday helped forge a unanimous preemption decision from the Supreme Court that is, in our view, helpful and comforting with regard to medical device preemption.
