What's bugging Barrett? of Quackwatch - More

[Guest guest]

By the way, ADA DPG on quackbusters is nothing new. . .

There are two sides to every story. For some alternatively 'extreme' but

interesting posts about barrett, check out the " rest of the story " --

_www.bolenreport.com_ (http://www.bolenreport.com/) and/or

_www.quackpotwatch.com_

(http://www.quackpotwatch.com)

Also, I wish I could find it now, but just recently read a journal article

that sites that only about 25% of what 'mainstream' physicians recommend is

based on 'clinical trials' and that most of what is done in medicine is done

based on observation, tradition, past teaching and speculation.

How many of us know people on 3 or more meds at one time. Ever seen research

showing the safety of 3 or more combined meds being taken at the same time.

Why isn't Quackwatch considering that quackery?

Also, I was a member of the National Council on Health Fraud years ago. When

I started seeing research that debunked their 'quack practices' - I dropped

my membership. They even used to say all accupuncture was quackery too! Now

it's covered by insurances due to overwhelming research, which existed from

foreign journals as long as 30 years ago.

Oh, and Barrett even labeled two time Nobel Prize winner, Linus ing as a

'quack.'

Not somebody I trust.

Quackpot Barrett " Mugged " Again - in Hometown Court...

Opinion by Health Freedom

Advocate Tim Bolen

Monday, April 17th, 2006

Delicensed MD _ Barrett_

(http://www.quackpotwatch.org/quackpots/quackpots/barrett.htm) , author of the

questionable website " quackwatch.com, " lost

another Court case this last month. Barrett is on a long Courtroom losing

streak.

Barrett's bigoted comments about cutting-edge health care offerings have

caused concerns among health industry leaders for years - and now those leaders

are reacting.. Barrett has been embroiled in, seemingly, one Court action

after another. Those court actions included two separate actions where he was

named as a participant in Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organization (RICO)

charges.

The recent case though, wasn't an assault against Barrett, it was a

Pennsylvania Court's rejection of a lawsuit filed by Barrett against one of his

detractors.

_Barrett _ (http://www.quackpotwatch.org/quackpots/quackpots/barrett.htm)

claims to be a " retired Psychiatrist, " but Court records show he was never able

to pass the testing requirements to be Board Certified in that specialty.

Barrett is not licensed to practice Medicine in any State, and has not been

allowed to do so since 1993. More importantly - Barrett is not licensed to

practice Naturopathy in any State either - and by his own admission, has not

completed even the basic requirements to be registered in that field.

A few years ago, Barrett sued leading US Chiropractor Tedd Koren for

allegedly " defaming Barrett. " The Court ruled against Barrett, tossing out the

case.

The Judge in that case publicly remonstrated Barrett, " I'm saying this to

the parties, and particularly to you Dr.Barrett. I notice you are talking to

your lawyer while I'm talking. And I would suggest to you that you would be

better off if you listen to me, for afterwards you will have plenty of time

to talk. "

Who is this " Barrett? "

There has been a movement in North America, for some time, away from the

conventional " drugs, drugs, and more drugs, " medical paradigm. Barrett, and a

small visible group self-styling themselves as _ " quackbusters " _

(http://www.quackpotwatch.org/WisconsinWar/who_are_these_so.htm) , have for

years smeared

those emerging paradigms, and their practitioners, with a vicious, hateful,

snarling, almost daily assault. But those practitioners, these days, are

reacting, and Barrett and his minions have become targets, not only in the

Courthouse, but in the media - and Barrett, apparently, doesn't like his own

medicine.

In this case, Barrett, clearly not liking the Pennsylvania Judge's decision

to throw out his claim, filed a Motion for a new Trial in the Barrett v.

Koren case. Dr. Koren, who IS LICENSED to practice in Pennsylvania, was

represented by California litigator F. Negrete. The Judge's response to

Barrett's demand for a new trial was short, and to the point - " Denied. "

Stay tuned...
