A fired molecular biologist has filed suit against Pfizer claiming that she has been intermittently paralyzed by a virus designed at the Pfizer laboratory where she worked. The upcoming trial initiated by Becky McClain will raise questions about safety practices in the dynamic field of genetic engineering. McClain suspects she was exposed to an engineered form of lentivirus, a virus similar to the one that leads to AIDS. Medical experts working for McClain believe the virus has affected the way her body channels potassium, leading to a condition that causes complete paralysis as many as 12 times a month. read more

A central figure behind CDC's claims disputing the link between vaccines and autism/neurological disorders has disappeared after officials discovered a massive taxpayer dollar theft and fraud. Thorsen was a leading member of a Danish research group that wrote key studies endorsing MMR vaccine and mercury-laden vaccines were safe for children. A new mandate requiring autism cases be reported in a registry and the opening of a clinic dedicated to autism in Copenhagen accounted for the sudden rise in reported cases rather than, as Thorsen suggested, the removal of mercury from vaccines. The CDC and MSM have used this as the basis for assurances that it is safe to inject young children with mercury, a potent neurotoxin, at concentrations hundreds of times over safety limits. read more


Bloomberg is reporting that Obama would veto legislation authorizing the next budget for U.S. intelligence agencies if it calls for a new investigation into the 2001 anthrax attacks. The FBI says that the anthrax case is closed, and that they have proved that Dr. Bruce Ivins did it. But Congress is not convinced. On March 3, Representative Holt called for a new investigation. "The American people need credible answers to all of these and many other questions. Only a comprehensive investigation, Independent or by Congress, I've proposed in the Anthrax Attacks Investigation Act (H.R. 1248)can give us those answers," Holt said in a letter to the Chairmen of the House Committees on Homeland Security, Judiciary, Intelligence, and Oversight and Government Reform. The full letter is included.

Residents of Falcon Heights, a south Texas border town, saw a Mexican helicopter hovering over a house shortly after 6pm on Tuesday night. The chopper conducted surveillance for about 15 minutes before flying back to Mexico. The markings read La Marina' which is the Mexican Navy.

"They had armored individuals in the chopper, open ramp, very military looking, in style and preparation," said Zapata County Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez Jr.

KRGV were told to talk to the Customs and Border Protection, who said they knew about the incursion but were apparently unconcerned.

State and local authorities refused to return phone calls about the incident after they were also contacted by KRGV. read more

A new government ad in Britain produced in conjunction with national radio outlet TallkSport, promotes the "anti-terrorist hotline" and encourages people to report individuals who don't talk to their neighbors much, people who like to keep themselves to themselves, people who close their curtains, and people who don't use credit cards. The sheer lunacy is obvious but the deeper message, everyone has a responsibility to act as a citizen spy, a Stasi informant working for the state, and that everyone is under constant suspicion no matter how benign their behavior. Another aspect is the accelerating attempt to create a cashless society where every transaction is tracked and recorded. To predominantly eliminate the use of cash, it has to be demonized as suspicious, dirty and criminal. read more

When Brent Leung started showcasing his groundbreaking new documentary film about AIDS, "House of Numbers" he had no way to comprehend the wave of defamatory attacks that would be unleashed against him. Promoters of conventional AIDS theories (with all their vaccines and pharmaceuticals) have gone on a rampage against Leung, calling him an "AIDS denialist" -- with an obvious invocation of the similar-sounding "Holocaust denialist" phrase.

The implication, of course, is that if you deny any part of conventional AIDS theories, you're as bad as a Nazi war criminal. It's a curious comparison, especially given that the origins of the modern pharmaceutical industry are found precisely in the Nazi regime where pharmaceutical scientists routinely conducted medical experiments on Jewish prisoners. As a fascinating matter of historical fact, the Chairman of Bayer in the 1950's (yes, the same Bayer that makes Bayer Aspirin) was Dr. Fritz ter Meer, a convicted war criminal, who after committing crimes against humanity was sentenced to seven years in prison at the Nuremberg war trials.

The pharmaceutical industry operating today is largely a cabal of unindicted criminals who are guilty of crimes against humanity, and one of their favorite methods of multiplying their profits is to push a disease, then sell a vaccine they claim "treats" the disease. It's the same old scam, whether we're talking about cervical cancer, swine flu or even AIDS.

Getting back to Brent Leung and his film House of Numbers, when the AIDS-pharma promoters saw his film, they knew they had to attack the messenger and try to discredit him as quickly as possible. So they claimed Leung quoted the scientists in the film out of context, thereby distorting what they were saying. In particular, Leung was attacked for his interview with Dr. Luc Montagnier, the Nobel Prize-winning co-discoverer of the AIDS virus, who explained to Leung during the interview that AIDS can be overcome (cured) with nutrition, and that the vaccine approach is entirely overblown.

Such an idea, of course, spells financial doom for drug companies and their cohorts, all of whom profit from the oft-repeated myth that "AIDS has no cure" and that only drugs can treat AIDS. So the critics went after Leung for daring to include Montagnier's words in his documentary.

why not judge him by his own words instead of what some idiotic creationist [insert incoherent rambling here] claims to have heard him say


Here's WikiQuotes Full Write-Up on 'The Impact of Society' by Bertrand Russell for the intellectually challenged as yourself. So with the full text, what was the lie AND what exactly was out of context, moron???

The Impact of Science on Society (1951)

* If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. ... The state of affairs might be somewhat unpleasant, but what of it? Really high-minded people are indifferent to happiness, especially other people's.

* Aristotle maintained that women have fewer teeth than men; although he was twice married, it never occurred to him to verify this statement by examining his wives' mouths.

* Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible.

* I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology.... Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these the most influential is what is called "education." Religion plays a part, though a diminishing one; the press, the cinema, and the radio play an increasing part.... It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment.

* The subject will make great strides when it is taken up by scientists under a scientific dictatorship.... The social psychologists of the future will have a number of classes of school children on whom they will try different methods of producing an unshakable conviction that snow is black. Various results will soon be arrived at. First, that the influence of home is obstructive. Second, that not much can be done unless indoctrination begins before the age of ten. Third, that verses set to music and repeatedly intoned are very effective. Fourth, that the opinion that snow is white must be held to show a morbid taste for eccentricity. But I anticipate. It is for future scientists to make these maxims precise and discover exactly how much it costs per head to make children believe that snow is black, and how much less it would cost to make them believe it is dark gray.

* Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen.

The liberal blogs have GOOGLED to find out that Hawaii has had some earthquakes! Wow, Obama was right. His detractors are crazy.

Rawstory

The liberal bloggers at Media Matters, however, were quick to point out that there had been a magnitude 6.7 earthquake in Hawaii in October 2006, in response to which then-President George Bush declared the state a major disaster area.

So score Obama 1, Fox News 0? Perhaps not. It seems that Fox and Gateway Pundit were wrong in completely overlooking a significant earthquake, but President Obama may also have erred in claiming that the narrowly-drawn provision inserted last fall specifically to win over Landrieu's vote could apply to any other state.

"I was actually in Honolulu at the time," blogger Morgen Richmond writes, "and fortunately there was no loss of life or even major injuries. However, there was some relatively significant damage to roads and structures."

Richmond goes on, though, to point out that the language in the current health care reform bill would apply only to a state where "during the preceding 7 fiscal years, the President has declared a major disaster" as a result of which "every county or parish in the State warrant individual and public assistance or public assistance from the Federal Government."

Hawaii, it seems, consists of five counties, one of which has only 117 residents and was not included in the 2006 disaster relief declaration, while a second was only designated as eligible for limited assistance.

"So given all available facts it sure looks to me like the President's assertion on Fox News was not true, and that Louisiana remains the only state eligible for this payoff," Richmond concludes. "Either that or the bill is about to get even more expensive in adding not only Hawaii to the mix, but Mississippi as well."


So why Hawaii. A freudian slip perhaps?

Why did he cave remains a mystery:

In his announcement today, Kucinich said absolutely nothing to endorse the bill on any its "merits". He even condemned the bill, even as he stated simultaneously that he must submit a yes vote. This makes no sense. Clearly, some unusual, and possibly criminal personal threat was made here.

Dennis Kucinich never just backs down and says "oh well, never mind" It is also clear that the U.S. Senate had, and still has, 50 Senators willing to vote in favor of a public option, if the House sends it to them (which Nancy Pelosi has assured they won't at Obama's own request).

Nothing has changed. There are two primary talking points that are complete fabrications:

There is no true "ban on preexisting conditions". First of all, the clause does not even kick in for 4 whole years, so the Insurance Companies can deny care and eligibility all that they want to for the next 4 whole years. Secondly, when the clause does kick in, it only imposes just a very small penalty (a fine) if they reject people. So for an Insurance Company, it is going to be much cheaper for them to pay a simple $5000 fine, then it would ever be to cover a citizen with a health problem of any consequence (especially someone with a past cancer diagnosis). So, this is all just a big lie. There is no "ban on pre-existing conditions".

The second is that" "the bill will get 30 million new people covered." It does nothing of the kind. All the bill does is to mandate that people write horribly expensive checks to the Insurance Monopolies, and become their victims and slaves with no choices and no options. But no actual "care" is ever assured. The Insurance Companies set all the rules, and can continue to deny treatments, deny surgeries, deny tests, and even terminate your entire policy (for a small fine) if you get too expensive.

For the "less educated", consider why avoidance, stall-tactics and ad-hominem attack is the only tools available to them. This can be traced to the "roots" of their 'education', as the professors in the university teach as fervently as a cult religion the very philosophers' world view, from their persective of a utopian elitist totalitarian class rule society, so that if a view were expressed truthfully, it would implicate their agenda.

Two quick examples:

Dr. Eric Pianka, University of Texas evolutionary ecologist and lizard expert:

"War and famine would not do. Instead, disease offered the most efficient and fastest way to kill the billions that must soon die if the population crisis is to be solved. AIDS is not an efficient killer because it is too slow. My favorite candidate for eliminating 90 percent of the world's population is airborne Ebola (Ebola Reston), because it is both highly lethal and it kills in days, instead of years. "We've got airborne diseases with 90 percent mortality in humans. Killing humans. Think about that. "You know, the bird flu's good, too. For everyone who survives, he will have to bury nine"

Bertrand Russell writes in a book entitled 'The Impact of Science on Society (1952):

It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fichte laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. But in his day this was an unattainable ideal: what he regarded as the best system in existence produced Karl Marx. In future such failures are not likely to occur where there is dictatorship. Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so." 61
