What is the infection that Barbie has suddenly come down with? Imported toys from China with dangerous levels of lead, including Barbie doll accessories, have ended up in U.S. stores. Yet, Nancy Nord, the acting head of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, opposes efforts to strengthen her agency. Plus, she's taken trips paid for by the industries she regulates. It's clear: Nancy Nord must resign.

Several news outlets, including ABCNews.com, The Washington Post, the Associated Press and even the Fox News Channel did stories on this YouTube video by the Campaign for America's Future that calls attention to the conservative-led decimation of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
