FOUR GRADE EVENT
By Celia Farber, in the New York Press:
http://www.nypress.com/17/52/news&columns/celiafarber.cfm
Let us not forget that Nevirapine is a drug that was pulled by its own manufacturer from use in the West, after an investment of many millions of dollars. It remains banned for use in pregnant
first-world women.
Still, the NIH is using it on American women, in experimental trials you never heard about-until now. Alongside the revelations about the Ugandan trial, the AP stories brought to light that Joyce Ann Hafford, a 33-year-old, perfectly healthy, eight-months pregnant HIV-positive woman from Tennessee died from liver failure in an NIH trial testing Nevirapine. Her liver counts had been way off for days, and still doctors didn't take her off the drug.
The doctors told her family, naturally, that she had died of AIDS.
The trouble is, cocktail-drug deaths are easily distinguished from AIDS deaths. This was not the case with AZT, a drug that simply decimated the immune system. Cocktail deaths are caused primarily by liver toxicity, heart attacks and strokes-from the effects of the drugs on the body's fat metabolism.
Hafford's death crystallizes the raging conflict between the establishment point of view that HIV is deadly and drugs save lives and the "denialist"
or dissident point of view that HIV is not deadly at all by itself, but AIDS drugs are. Hafford had no so-called AIDS symptoms; she was simply HIV
positive. She also had an older healthy child, which suggests that HIV may not be as lethal as advertised.
By refusing to lament her death, or even the
scores of Ugandan deaths, and instead attacking the messenger, the AIDS establishment has shown itself to be lost, with a broken compass, on the map of medicinal ethics.
Once it becomes acceptable to kill patients in experimental clinical trials and cover it up, without consequence, you might argue that all is lost. |

...a
Just Future & Constitutional Self-GOvernance
---TIME for All Concerned Citizens to report for Historic Duty and
STAND Up with courageous resolve & vigilance -For We are on-the-cusp of
redemption, my friends! Ballots? SchMallots! We NEED to Vote NOW,
with our voices, eyes,ears and feet in this New Year.
Get Ready for 1/3/05 to 1/6/05. Join
in this dynamic FLASH! SmartMob MoveMent in spirited Defense of
genuine Representative Democracy. The Law, the Future, common sense
and decency are ON Our Side. The PeopleUnited in exciting solidarity are ready to BRING IT ON!, to those who corrupt, mock and trivialize our Right to free, fair and VALID
Elections. Either-the B/C or K/E ticket OR the media is not authorized to accept
dirty elections on the people's behalf if it does not follow clean worldwide
standards. A studied, honest legal assessment shows the 2004Debacle to be
suspect, questionable, frustratingly problematic in its planning,
conduct and now-audit.
Since the CorpMedia has almost zilch credibility as an objective news
source it is the EveryDay People's duty to become and originate a
New Medium which breathes life, rarified air into the communications sphere.
DeCONtaminating the poisoned, polluted atmosphere of responsible
public discourse.Honoring the Public's right-to-know, efforts Conscientiously aimed at motivating, maturing and
moving Consensus Reality Forward-closing the Wisdom Gap.
Can't you see Boris, slyly
grinnin',(the raw exit poll data withheld inside his overcoat) smacking
his fist in his palm, threatening, "What part of, it's over, don't
you understand?" With Abu Gharib, Gitmo ethos prevalent & lurking, the shameful
media is acting much like an agressive interrogater, enforcer- foisting a fraudulent, sham election onto the MassPsyche, and to caring, FreeThinkers & justified Vote Defenders, akin to Psychological torture. First they tell us that it is the most important election
in our lifetime, then Andrew Card nervously, unilaterally calls the
election, in lieu of earned merit, for his boss. The media
doesn't study it, analyize it, or do their job and in a concerted campaign,
echo in unison-GET OVER IT. (remember Hussein capture? newspapers,
websites, networks, punditz-LIKE A RAT,Like a Rat, like a rat) Who gives the orders for these negative thought-spores?
THIS indocrination, chicanery, ridicule is obvious and THE ULTIMATE fear
and hopeless-based trauma
CONDITIONING TO MANUFACTURE ALIENATION and TIMID ACCEPTANCE FOR THE
END OF DEMOCRACY.
News org's spreading thought-viruses violate the BirthRight
freedom- Cognitive Liberty and the sovereignity of individuals
freedom to think independently,
fairly, honestly as sentient agents SEEKING the promotion of The
Good. Personally, I could give a hoot if the media doesn't care
about their own credibility or respect Words=Conduits of Spirit. I know where to find solid
information-but they are disturbing and stunting, brainwashing those who don't
have time or strength to discover different solutions that shine
light on hidden, nefarious motives, in effect selling short the Human Race, preventing
wisdom, growth and Delaying the Rennaissance!
Nevertheless, Intuition, word-of-mouth and heart-based gnosis IS very powerful
and contagioUS and shall overcome, their advantage of mass-produced reality bytes courtesy of Monopolies aggressively overwhelming dominance and destruction of
sacred Nature- in all it's forms. Adversely favoring profit OVER people,
machine OVER man, subterfuge OVER SunShine transparency- TRULY archaic modus-operandi for a successful species.
This post shares recent tough essays, VoterGate2004 artifacts, documents and
correspondence to emBOLDen and build your networks, flyers for
historic rallies and Hands-to-Work-Hearts-to-God HOMEmade,
protest=protect SIGNS* ENOUGH! No heavy-handed, top-down reality
control can stop this beautiful calling-WE know what happened and
we have to arREST this corruption-Democracy yearns to STAY UP past
it's bedTIME!

"The Americans dropped about 20,000 cluster bombs. Only 20 percent exploded. My son didn't die in the front lines from enemy fire; he died because of the military's negligence."
"You know," Suarez del Solar says thoughtfully, enunciating every word, "there are people who say I give aid and comfort to the enemy. I never spoke with Bush, he never sent me anything, but the people of Iraq I met, THEY comforted ME for my loss! I have yet to see the enemy." |
