Guest guest Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Thank you, Kathi. Glad you liked it. I am deeply concerned for the decaying soul of America. When concerns of retribution or loss of stature color one's decision of whether to do the right thing to stop a known wrong, and that concern becomes the deciding factor for action or lack there of...the decency in a society collapses. This CYA type of behavior makes it harder for the next person to speak out without experiencing a wrath of retaliation and retribution. Lack of action to stop a wrong then becomes an action by inaction which aids and abets in furthering deception. Since the turn of the century, THAT is what has been happening to the soul America in many instances and in many issues. THAT is the true legacy of the eight years of the Bush Administration. Self justification of fear of retribution or fear of loss of stature causing failure to stop known wrongs, has become a norm and acceptable behavior in our society. There have always been and will always be corrupt elements in our society. That has not changed and will not change. What has changed is that there are now more " Good Men " who fail to stop wrongs because it could be detrimental to their own best interests, and this is now acceptable behavior. Not in my book. THAT' IS MORALLY WRONG AND IS THE TRUE THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY!!! As the saying goes " Evil flourishes when good men stand by and do nothing " . I think the mold issue has served as a perfect illustration of how and why evil flourishes at the hands of good men; and how detrimental this is to the soul of America.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Yep. One would think that it wouldn't be so difficult to have good men stand up and say that you cannot take a rat study, add some math and set public health policy that no one is being made ill from mold. It is utterly amazing to me that this is still considered current accepted science in US Courts; and anyone who says otherwise may have a valid point but they fall outside the norm. This is illustrated by the recent ruling in the Abad case in Az. _http://katysexposure.wordpress.com/2010/08/03/arizona-appellate-court-defin es-outrageous-behavior-and-then-proceeds-to-practice-it-just-like-the-san-di ego-courts-have-for-five-years-over-the-same-issues-fraud-in-health-marketin g-by-the-us/_ (http://katysexposure.wordpress.com/2010/08/03/arizona-appellate-court-defines-o\ utrageous-behavior-and-then-proceeds-to-practice-it-just-l ike-the-san-diego-courts-have-for-five-years-over-the-same-issues-fraud-in-h ealth-marketing-by-the-us/) Even more amazing are that there are good men who think it is wrong to stand up and say this is wrong, which allows the deception to continue to flourish. Mind blowing when you think about it. In a message dated 8/8/2010 8:19:43 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, ssr3351@... writes: Sharon this is excellent and says it all!!!!!
