Why are babies being drugged with vaccination and it's ok!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I live in the city and I take the subway and the bus to and from work and I am bombarded by drug ads at the bus stations and&amp;nbsp;on the outside of&amp;nbsp;buses.

Loop</dc:creator><description>This is unquestionably an incredible video! &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;My question to you, Dr. Mercola, is why don't you, Gary Null, and Matthias Rath compile your resources and team-up?&lt;/span&gt; You guys are established, cutting-edge health experts (not trying to inflate your ego) that I feel could do alot more as a team than separately! I enjoy, and am grateful, for the time and effort you guys put in toward changing the face of healthcare as we know it. I also think it's great that you post Null's videos and articles, however the "evil" (for lack of a better term) business conglomerates are merging while heading toward a one world everything! What are the good guys doing to pool their resources (monetarily) and counteract? Maybe you three meet behind closed doors periodically, I don't know but would like to. I will look forward to a response at your earliest convenience. Thanks, Doc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=89879" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Prescription for Disaster - -You Need to Watch This Video!!</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/19/Prescription-for-Disaster--You-Need-to-Watch-This-Video.aspx#89878</link><pubDate>Tue, 20 Feb 2007 14:08:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:89878</guid><dc:creator>hbschraw</dc:creator><description>Everyone should watch this video.&amp;nbsp; People really believe that the FDA is there to protect the public and the drug companies function in some benevolent altruistic mode of just helping the sick get well.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Drug companies are concerned with the bottom line and the FDA is heavily pressured by the manufacturers to approve the product.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;the simple fact is,&amp;nbsp;that is a recipe for corruption and graft.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;The worriesome aspect is&amp;nbsp;that the mainstream media continuously ignores the problems with drugs and their fatal potential.&amp;nbsp; The media reports about the "miracles" of medicine everyday in their broadcasts but rarely if ever reports regularly about their dangers and adverse reactions.&amp;nbsp; If the media kept a body count of the deaths attributed to medicine the way they track the casualties of the Iraq war maybe people would finally wake up to the potential risks of one of America's leading causes of death... medical care.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Dr. Herbert B.

I suffer from a severe mental illness, and the section on the pseudoscience of psychiatry shook me up and made me very confused, angry, upset, etc. It eventually led me to seek out natural medicine alternatives for mental illness (primarily Stephanie Marohn's Healthy Mind Guides - Dr. Mercola is mentioned!), none of which I have yet pursued due to extreme lack of resources and opportunity (when that changes, believe me it's a priority).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Still, I did my homework a little bit, and I am even more confused now because I'm not sure how to feel about the issue. On the one hand, I want to believe what Gary Null is putting forth, particularly because it is endorsed by Dr. Mercola. On the other hand, Dr. Null (Phd) uses some VERY questionable sources. His first and pretty much predominant talking head on psychiatry is the head of the Florida chapter of CCHR. That's all it's listed as, "CCHR". CCHR is the Citizens Commission on Human Rights. The Citizens Commission on Human Rights was founded by, has strong ties to, and allegedly is practically run by...the Church of Scientology! That's right, the Scientologists!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now, I have nothing against Scientology. I have not been exposed to it enough to form a fair opinion about it. But I do know that it is pretty widely perceived that the Church of Scientology is a radical religious organization, maybe even a cult. Are they really the best source to throw your weight behind in a legitimate documentary? If you look up "anti-psychiatry" on Wikipedia, you will find an enormous amount of fascinating data, but you find no more than one brief mention of Scientology. It all seems very questionable.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Plus, Gary Null actually uses Michael Moore. There is a whole host of controversy surrounding him and his integrity in making documentaries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just some things to consider.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;[Or is Scientology more mainstream than I give it credit for?]&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=89871" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Prescription for Disaster - -You Need to Watch This Video!!</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/19/Prescription-for-Disaster--You-Need-to-Watch-This-Video.aspx#89870</link><pubDate>Tue, 20 Feb 2007 00:44:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:89870</guid><dc:creator>annapavlova42</dc:creator><description>Bravo, BRAVO!!!!!!!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Yes!!!!!!&amp;nbsp; Great film.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Congradualtions Dr. Mercola and Gary Null, including others.&amp;nbsp; Thank you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How can I help to forward your message.&amp;nbsp; I am a organic vegan and take suppliments, flush and live a very healthy life style&amp;nbsp;for the past 2 years.&amp;nbsp; Most people I speak with will not listen to me, but say wonderful things on , how I look.&amp;nbsp; Oh, you look so very healthy.&amp;nbsp; But will not even take the first step.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you only believe what you see, then you are limited to what's on the surface.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you only believe what you see, then why pay your electric bill?By, Dr. wayne Dryer.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If people do not open their eyes and remove their heads from their self made black holes, as sad as this will read,&amp;nbsp; they will suffer and die.&amp;nbsp; My heart goes out to those in every-way.&amp;nbsp; &lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=89870" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Prescription for Disaster - -You Need to Watch This Video!!</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/19/Prescription-for-Disaster--You-Need-to-Watch-This-Video.aspx#89869</link><pubDate>Tue, 20 Feb 2007 00:36:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:89869</guid><dc:creator>Josh Rubin</dc:creator><description>Great video!&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=89869" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Prescription for Disaster - -You Need to Watch This Video!!</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/02/19/Prescription-for-Disaster--You-Need-to-Watch-This-Video.aspx#89868</link><pubDate>Mon, 19 Feb 2007 19:12:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:89868</guid><dc:creator>Russ Bianchi</dc:creator><description>Dr. David J. Graham is, I suspect, a real thorn in the FDA's side. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I view Dr. Graham, like Dr. Mercola, a TRUE AMERICAN HERO!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Feds are trying to IGNORE the good Doctor,&amp;nbsp;as one whispering voice in the wilderness,&amp;nbsp;among institutionalized corruption, that they preside over, unchecked, for revolving door relationships between Big Pharma and approval employees at FDA.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Congress (House &amp;amp; Senate) who appoints FDA to administer this ongoing den of thieves, is not about to expose themselves, to their own GUILT, in all of this either. Many of the large companies benefiting from all of this, are indeed HUGE contributor$ to each of the politician$ own campaign$ (on BOTH sides of the i$le)&amp;nbsp;and lobbying war chest$.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;No FDA official should EVER be allowed to work for industry (even as an independent consultant), even in retirement; it 's the price they should have to pay for being regulators.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But this revolving door stuff is true in all of our US government, with the defense industries doing it, as well as the most recent Secretary of the Interior going to work for Shell Oil Company to try to steamroll through massively polluting, to Colorado drinking water ancient aquifers, a RETORT and chemical enzymatic inefficient 'bake and shake' shale crude oil 'alternative' energy plan for domestic shale deposits.&amp;nbsp; There&amp;nbsp;are much safer, much higher ROI ,and less polluting systems, already proven for shale oil recovery, in America's need and quest&amp;nbsp;for domestic independence from foreign oil sources; but governmental CORRUPTION again is backing the&amp;nbsp;worse horse in the race.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How can things improve?&amp;nbsp; Well the first step, is through &lt;a href="http://www.mercola.com/"&gt;www.mercola.com&lt;/a&gt; sites allowing folks to know about this daily&amp;nbsp; FRAUD, DECIET, ALWAYS, (FDA) and shine the light on these real CROOKS.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=89868" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
