POLITICAL - The Devestating Truth About the Obama Plan

[Guest guest]

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny is respected as one of the country's most knowledgeable and

outspoken physicians regarding the impact of

vaccines on health….

I realize that many people reading this essay have no interest in alternative

medicine. However, that field represents freedom of

choice for millions of Americans, and if you want to deny that choice---because

you have a mistaken notion about, and a misplaced

faith in, how medical science actually operates---the medical facts I describe

and cite below should bring about a new appreciation

of what freedom looks like, and how important the job of protecting it is.

The Devestating Truth About the Obama Plan

As I begin this essay on Thanksgiving morning, I recall that, 15 years ago, I

was preparing to challenge Henry Waxman for his seat

in the US House, in the 29th District, Los Angeles. At that time, the issue was

Health Freedom, the right of every American to

choose how to maintain and improve his/her health. And here I am again, with

the same issue—only this time, there is a gargantuan

White House program in place to destroy that freedom from the top down.

And various alternative-health advocates, having lost their minds, are

supporting it. Among them are people who actually believe

the small affirmative nods from politicians, in the direction of alternative

medicine, are signaling an enlightened age under the

Obama Star.

Duped again. One more time.

I have never imagined Democrats or Republicans represented the American people.

This time, it is the political Left, with their

naïve belief in “science” and “humanitarian work” who are leading the country

over a cliff. In the same way climate-change

researchers have recently been exposed as charlatans, manipulators, and

elitists, the medical establishment has been laid open and

flayed—only the revelations came nine years ago. And of course, the major media

refused to chase down that story and shine a light

on the criminals.

On July 26, 2000, the Journal of the American Medical Association published a

landmark paper by Barbara Starfield (s Hopkins

School of Public Health), “Is US health really the best in the world?” In it,

Starfield revealed what many people inside the

medical establishment already knew: every year, like clockwork, the medical

system was killing huge numbers of people. This wasn’t

a dream. It was too real. By all rights (but who cares about rights?) the game

was up. The liars and the PR flacks and the public

health agencies were going down. The drug companies were going to take a lethal

blow. Hospitals all over America were going to

have to confess their many sins. Of course, that never happened.

Each year in the US there are:

• 12,000 deaths from unnecessary surgeries;

• 7,000 deaths from medication errors in hospitals;

• 20,000 deaths from other errors in hospitals;

• 80,000 deaths from infections acquired in hospitals;

• 106,000 deaths from FDA-approved correctly prescribed medicines.

The total of medically-caused deaths in the US every year is 225,000. This makes

the medical system the third leading cause of death

in America, behind heart disease and cancer.

In the wake of Starfield’s devastating report, other facts came to light: 2.1

million people in America, every year, are

hospitalized as a result of reactions to FDA-approved medicines. Annually, 36

million serious adverse reactions to those drugs

occur. So, inclusive health coverage for many more Americans under the Obama

Plan—with business as usual—means these horrendous

figures will rise.

This is the dirty secret. This is what the political Left in this country,

those avid defenders of “medical science,” must pretend

isn’t there at all. And the Republicans are in the same position. Obama and his

allies are promoting a medical system that is the

third leading cause of death in America. It’s that stark and it’s that simple.

This is where we begin, if we are to understand the Obama Plan.

The Plan involves appointing an “expert panel” to decide what treatments

Americans should be given for what diseases, under the new

regime. Only a certified idiot would assume that, over time, alternative

non-mainstream therapies would survive such an ongoing

vetting. Hope may spring eternal, but common sense makes it easy to grasp the

realities on the ground.

Alternative therapies will die out. They will be edged out. Those that remain

will be permitted for a narrow range of conditions,

or as adjuncts to standard drug treatments and surgery. Chiropractors and

acupuncturists, who are temporarily basking in the notion

that Obama “really cares,” are in for a very rude awakening down the line.

Their careers and practices will be significantly

reduced. Not today, not tomorrow, but it will happen. Perhaps these

practitioners only fret about the short-term. Perhaps they’re

simply looking for a few scraps from the table as long as the meal lasts.

Veteran health and medical journalist Chowka points out

(http://tinyurl.com/gonzalex-obama) that Americans who want to take

responsibility for their own health, who don’t want onerous medical insurance,

would be drafted into the Plan, and they would pay

for it. With no escape possible, their discretionary incomes would shrink, and

many of them would no longer be able to buy the

healthiest foods and the supplements they use to prevent illness.This is another

avenue along which alternative health would

approach a dead-end.

There is also the strong possibility that doctors, under the Plan, will be

telling patients they may not

take nutritional supplements while in treatment. This will assume the status

of an irreversible edict. In certain cases, “while

in treatment” means years. What happens to a person, conscripted into the

mandated Plan, who is told by his doctor that he

should/must receive a vaccine? Suppose this person says no? What are the

consequences? Isn’t his refusal tantamount to saying he

wants out from under the Umbrella? Will he then be labeled a defector? What

penalties will he suffer?

Does a diagnosis of cancer imply a patient must submit to chemotherapy,

radiation, and surgery? Can these treatments be forced upon

him? Perhaps, in the early days of the Plan, nothing untoward will happen. But

then, as time passes, and the system assumes tighter

and tighter controls, the hand of government will close around the recalcitrant

patient’s neck.

Doctors, who are an integral part of the Plan, will surely be punished if they

give unapproved (alternative) treatments to patients.

Their licenses will be stripped.

And in order to make the Plan operate on a day-to-day basis, the records and

bookkeeping data of every health-care practitioner in

America will eventually be tracked on government computer networks. Every

person in America will have a traceable medical ID

package. There is no way around it. The monitoring apparatus can’t work

without it. Orwellian consequences lie up the road in the

field of psychiatric practice. In case you hadn’t noticed, the invention of

“disorders” by committee is the preferred method for

“discovering” more and more mental illnesses. Fairy-tale figures are thrown

about by the American Psychiatric Association: 20% of

Americans are clinically depressed; millions of children have ADHD and need a

cheap form of speed called Ritalin.

To secure the future of the Global Village, people everywhere must agree that

mental illness is no longer a stigma-label. Yet, the

science is completely fraudulent. For evidence, consult the many works of

psychiatrist Breggin, who has done more than any

other person to expose the guts of his own profession. Breggin establishes that

mental disorders cannot be authoritatively

diagnosed by a chemical or biological test. Conclusive tests do not exist. And

worse, in this undefined and arbitrary territory,

the drugs that follow diagnoses are killers. For example, 300,000 cases of

motor brain damage, as a result of the administration of

major tranquilizers.

Under the Obama Plan, you can bet your bottom dollar that psychiatric care will

eventually become mandatory. A patient suddenly

diagnosed with clinical depression or bipolar disease will be told he must take

the drugs—and suffer their adverse effects.

Science will take a back seat to a “share and care” collectivist philosophy, in

which the so-called mental health of the individual

is said to improve the group, the community, the nation. Under this cover, the

attack on the individual personality will expand.

Very young children will be given more and more debilitating and dangerous brain

drugs.

These are no Luddite predictions. This is about hard fact, and those who shy

away from the psychiatric literature and its

fraudulent pretensions are whistling in the dark, pretending they are

humanitarians of the first order. Under the Obama Plan, it

will be very convenient to declare new pandemics every few seasons, because

these phony non-epidemics provide an opportunity to herd

the sheep into clinics and remind them who is running the show. The United

States will eventually become a Medical State, and

lessons will have to be imparted on training wheels: go here, take this vaccine;

go there, take that drug; the epidemic is

endangering the herd, and you must help your brothers and sisters.

These are the figures on the last several “epidemics.” They are not yearly;

they are totals, to date; global totals, except in the

case of West Nile (US only):

• SARS: 774 deaths.

• WEST NILE: 1159 deaths.

• BIRD FLU: 262 deaths.

• SMALLPOX: (terrorist threat): 0 deaths.

• SWINE FLU: 7909 deaths.

To give perspective, 250 thousand to 500 thousand people die of ordinary

flu-like illness every year. Yet this astounding death

rate accrues no interest as an epidemic. It is only the “teaching

(brainwashing) moments” of the phony epidemics that are promoted

by health agencies (e.g., CDC and WHO) and their pharmaceutical allies, who rake

in billions by manufacturing new vaccines.

Yes, under the Obama Plan, there will be more declared health emergencies, and

they will serve to cement the citizen to his new role

as eternal patient in the medical march along bleak streets of the future. Can

you perceive the loss of individual freedom implicit

in this universal system of health control, and can you see how the present bill

before Congress is the gateway?

Do what you can to defeat the bill, and damn the torpedoes and syringes. If you

believe the US medical system is a beautiful thing

in all its parts, and you want in, consider that other human beings don’t.

You can have your wish, and you can help guarantee that your fellow citizens,

who decline, can have theirs, too. This country tends

to run on slogans, and “healthcare for all” is the punch line being used to

spread the word of a new era.

But slogans don’t inform, they persuade. We’re at a moment when we need to see

through the lie. The consequences are dire. The

fake saints and prophets and their followers are preaching a message that

contains a bomb. Vast public ignorance about the US

medical cartel and its true human effects is the delivery system for that bomb.

Sources and comments:

I’m fully aware that people reading the facts in this essay will be shocked, and

they will have doubts. Here are the sources for

those facts. Things are not what they seem. Barbara Starfield, “Is US health

really the best in the world?” JAMA, July 26, 2000.

Contains statistics on medically-caused deaths in the US.

On January 8, 2001, the LA Times ran a piece by Marsa on the effects of

medical drugs in the US. Predictably, the story sank

like a stone. It provoked no Congressional hearings, no arrests. The article

described, in a few key paragraphs, a world of

trouble. Adverse medical events. From med drugs.

" A 1998 University of Toronto study found that roughly 100,000 Americans die of

adverse [medical-drug] reactions each year, and 2.1

million more are hospitalized. "

Marsa offered, in her Times article, a quote from an associate professor of

medicine at Harvard, Dr. Bates, an author of a

2000 study on drug effects. The study found that " 18 percent of patients

complained of drug-

related complications... " Marsa wrote.

Here is the quote from Dr. Bates: " People often have [drug-caused] symptoms for

months, but they're either reluctant to let their

doctor know or they weren't sure if they just felt lousy...But these numbers

translate to 36 million adverse drug events per year. "

Marsa dug out an explanation offered for this horrendous stat by the

then-commissioner of the FDA, Kessler.

Here's Kessler's quote from the Times article: " 'If an adverse event occurs in

perhaps one in 5,000 or even one in 1,000 users, it

could be missed in a clinical trial but pose a serious safety problem when

released in the market,' noted former FDA Commissioner

A Kessler in a 1993 JAMA article. "

Kessler was trying to explain (away) 100,000 deaths and 2.1 million

hospitalizations and 36 million adverse reactions PER YEAR from

FDA APPROVED DRUGS. He failed dismally. He seemed to be saying, " We can't do

any better. " If true, then Kessler and his

colleagues should have abandoned the Agency and sought work elsewhere.

To add up the death totals from recent phony epidemics:

*SARS—See WHO “Summary of probable SARS cases with onset of illness from 1

November 2002 to 31 July 2003” (based on data as of

Dec.31, 2003).

*BIRD FLU—See WHO “Confirmed Human Cases of Avian Influenza A (H5N1)” (24

September 2009)

*WEST NILE—See CDC, West Nile Virus, Statistics, Surveillance, and Control.

Years are reported separately, 1999-2009. I included

only US cases because I couldn’t find a good source for global cases.

To confirm that every year, between 250,000 and 500,000 people die from ordinary

flu, see WHO Fact Sheet No.211, Influenza

(Seasonal).

Read Dr. Breggin’s classic, Toxic Psychiatry, St. ’s Press, 1991.

Follow Breggin’s argument, through several chapters,

that labeled mental disorders are not based on factual biological evidence, and

see p.89-91 for evidence that at least 300,000

people are suffering from brain damage (tardive dyskinesia) as a result of being

administered major tranquilizers.

Under the centralized Obama Plan, control of the US medical system will fall

into the hands of several powerful groups. The FDA,

for decades a foe of alternative medicine, will increase its stranglehold on the

nutritional-supplement market. Over time, it will

enact tighter rules concerning what supplements may be sold to consumers and

under what conditions. It will close down more

alternative clinics. The Department of Health and Human Services will assume

greater power over the states, and those states which

now allow wide latitude to alternative health practitioners will be squeezed.

The pharmaceutical industry, through its vast

political connections, will accelerate its strategies to impoverish, bankrupt,

and take over nutritional-supplement companies and

gain control of that multi-billion-dollar market.

These trends will not necessarily be reflected in the laws governing the US

medical-insurance plan, but those laws will create

greater centralization, which translates into a pipeline of force for the major

players. Even a casual observer of the psychiatric

landscape realizes that diagnoses of mental disorders are on the full upswing.

The American Psychiatric Association, a wholly owned

subsidiary of the pharmaceutical industry, will continue to exploit the

mental-health market and enable the labeling of the majority

of Americans with at least one mental disorder. That would be a target goal for

Big Pharma. Again, this is not about credible

science. It’s about business.

Founded in 1992, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine

(NCCAM), a minor bureau of the National Institutes

of Health (a federal agency), has managed to derail, stall, and divert the

progress of real alternative medicine. It has forwarded

no breakthroughs. It has bogged itself down in conferences, reports, and

committee deliberations. It has fooled a number of

so-called alternative-health advocates into believing that the federal

government supports non-mainstream health strategies.

Imagine what will happen when healthcare in this country becomes centralized to

a much greater degree under the Obama Plan. If this

one tiny agency, NCCAM, can now befuddle the alternative field with a collection

of inept and self-seeking bureaucrats, gargantuan

power held at the top of the federal government will make that diversion look

like a raindrop in a hurricane.

The modern medical system has always utilized PR to make its case to the public.

Such efforts, under a federally run health system,

will intensify by a factor of a hundred, a thousand. Its themes will run the

gamut: toxic chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery for

all cancers, even when the science confesses these treatments are useless and

life-destroying; more vaccines for childhood

illnesses, even though unvaccinated children experience these illnesses and

emerge with natural immunity to them; unnecessary and

damaging hysterectomies; infrequent mammograms that lead to more biopsies,

cancer and surgery when they are done; " discoveries "

about mental disorders that indicate the (false) need for debilitating drugs

over the course of many years, for adults and children…

It’s important to realize that, at the heart of medical PR, success in applying

dramatic treatments for emergency-crisis-trauma

patients has been exploited, to make it seem that the same degree of success

applies over the full range of medical intervention.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

The history of the decline of infectious disease is a history of improved

sanitation, an alleviation of overcrowding, the rise of

the middle class, and above all, the betterment of nutrition. This decline in

disease occurred before the introduction of

antibiotics and widespread vaccination. Under massively centralized medical

care, in an environment where chemically saturated

agri-business grows our food in depleted topsoil, there is a greater and greater

need for nutritional supplements. But this vital

avenue will be narrowed and blocked in the ways I have indicated above.

In my 20 years as a medical reporter, I’ve documented instances in which germs

were used as cover stories to explain away illness

actually caused by horrendous environmental conditions. This inhuman operation

is easy to understand once you realize that some of

the leading pharmaceutical firms (which make billions by drugging germs) are

also chemical companies (which sell enormous amounts of

toxic pesticides) and are also genetic-engineering companies (which develop food

seeds that yield crops with lower nutritional

values, crops that demand more toxic pesticides to survive, crops whose adverse

health effects remain untested).

Under a national medical plan, these companies would be able to assert even more

power than they do now. The ease with which

environmentally/chemically caused illness could be explained away “as a virus”

would be child’s play, because the same people would

hold the medical and chemical strings.

Last but not least, medical-research fraud continues unabated, an out-of-control

rampant crime. Occasional confessions published in

medical journals do not stop the fraud, whose major source is illegitimate

pharmaceutical influence. Under a centralized

government-run medical monolith, these offenses will become harder to spot and

correct, and easier to portray as real science.

See, for example, “20 Percent Of Cancer Studies Report Conflict of Interest,”

ScienceDaily (May 13, 2009): “Nearly one-third of

cancer research published in high-impact journals disclosed a conflict of

interest, according to a new study from researchers at the

University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center. The most frequent type of

conflict was [pharmaceutical] industry funding of the

study, which was seen in 17 percent of papers. Twelve percent of papers had a

study author who was an industry employee. Randomized

trials with reported conflicts of interest were more likely to have positive

findings…”

Also, from the Boston Globe (Boston.com), “Flaws are found in validating medical

studies; many see need to overhaul standards for

peer review” (August 15, 2005): “…after a study that sent reverberations through

the medical profession by finding that almost

one-third of top research articles have been either contradicted or seriously

questioned, some specialists are calling for radical

changes in the system…almost one-third of the top papers that appeared in top

journals over a 13-year period from 1990 to 2003, had

been either contradicted or found to have potentially exaggerated results.

All the articles had [prior to publication] undergone vigorous peer review,

leading to questions about whether problems should have

been caught by reviewers…”
