Gabesmom: “These guys have been grasping at straws for so long that the only thing left to hold onto is the inflated egos of their fellow cult members.”

Can we make that ‘*over*inflated egos’?

While the thimerosal was supposedly largely removed from vaccines by 2001, according to the mercury militia all of those doctor’s offices and clinics had old bottles of serum lying around for years which accounts for the fact that so many of us have children who are three years old or younger. It’s hard for me to believe that hospitals with dozens of births daily would still have old Hep B vacs lying about or that high volume county health facilities like the one my son was vaccinated in would not have replenished their supplies in the three years since thimerosal had allegedly been removed. Oh yeah, I forgot the flu vaccine still apparently has mercury as a preservative- whoops Gabriel didn’t have that either. Could have been the RHO-gham shots I had- but wasn’t our friend Dr. Geier recently laughed out of court over the RHO-gam/autism connection “evidence”? These guys have been grasping at straws for so long that the only thing left to hold onto is the inflated egos of their fellow cult members.

Dear Mr. Kirby,

There’s been a lot of silence about your book because it’s basically one step up from the self-published nonsense of Robert Mendelsohn and Hilary Butler.

In other words, you’re a lying fraud. At least have the common decency to admit your POV was bought and paid for by the mercury militia.

I usually wish that Fair Autism Media would take the tapes they have of misinformed people and liars off their website so that more people aren’t misled, but look, it’s an archive of the misinformed people and liars on tape! Without the tape of Will Redwood we might actually think that he’d been “cured” by all the stuff his parents have “treated” him with. We can watch Dr. Geier say with utter confidence that he’s discovered “sheets” of mercury and testosterone that can be found in humans and are found in autistic children! (as opposed to being found *only *in chemistry labs under controlled conditions).

For some reason we don’t see a tape of Erik Nanstiel saying that he realized after talking to some other experts that there are no sheets of testosterone and mercury in any human. No comment on the insurance fraud that seems to hover around the whole Lupron debacle.

Thanks, Kev. Kirby is such a rat. He’s got a thing against the CDC, I think, and is playing out his revenge, either that, or he’s just in it for the money he’s getting from the mercury parents, his so called “small stipend” might be more like a “large stipend”... we’ll see, sooner or later.

However he refused to comment further and did not reply to any of my emails, nor respond to any blog comments I left either here or on his page at the Huffington Post blog.

One would think David Kirby might be interested in addressing criticism posted on the autism website/blog with most readers on the web. But no. He prefers to ignore it. That is obviously because he does not have a good answer to the arguments presented, nor is he interested in debating how to correctly interpret CDDS data, nor in retracting his demonstrably flawed suppositions.

As Morton Gernsbacher pointed out at AutCom, autism wasn’t a special ed category until 1992 in the USA. And not all states adopted it immediately. So of course it looks like there’s an incredibly increase since then.

Oh, poor David. This was his big chance to be the next Rachel Carson, and now he’s just left looking like a pathetic puppet. You could almost feel bad for him, if he weren’t so pompous and disingenuous.
