Guest guest Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 This is an email we received on the Moms Against Mercury email and asked to forward to parents (and no we did not make this up to get you to the rally....apparently, this person went on our website and saw the CDC rally announcement). To Parents in America: I'm a pharmaceutical whistleblower who was fired from my job for daring to tell the truth to one of the major vaccine producers regarding blatant and intentional violations of FDA requirements regulating the safety, identity, sterility, quality, and purity of one of this country's recommended childhood vaccines. These violations, by the way, have been occurring for over six years and according to former employees of this particular company, continue to this very day. Believe it or not, these unethical and illegal (read: criminal) activities are occurring despite a FDA and Department of Justice " consent decree " prohibiting such illegal actions. If former and current employees in the manufacturing and quality control departments of this organization know such criminal activity is occurring, then why doesn't the FDA do something about it? The answer is simple - it's because key people within the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) do not want anyone in any shape or form in this country to stop the flow of vaccines (even if they are toxic, contaminated, adulterated, and/or incompetently made). When quality directors in this major vaccine producer laugh - repeatedly - about how good they'll look in " prison orange " , then you as a parent need to know there's a BIG problem. When these same quality directors - repeatedly - tell senior executives they're so far out of compliance that they don't want to make it any worse, then you need to tell the CDC - LOUDLY - that you're mad as hell and you don't want to take it any more. When you research the VAERS database and find a large percentage of deaths and injuries attributed to events that sound a lot like " mercury-poisoning " or " aluminum poisoning " or " cyanide poisoning " , then you have to BLUNTLY ask why the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and the scientists at the CDC and FDA are allowing our babies and children to be POISONED? Why aren't we told the truth about the presence of these toxic, poisonous chemicals and why are we being forced to inject these same toxins (read: poisons) into the immune systems of our young children? You won't get the FDA or CDC to admit this, but websites in Europe will tell you, for example, that the pneumococcal vaccine has sodium cyanide in it. Now, why would a vaccine given to babies at 2, 4, 6, and 12 months contain the same substance that killed 6 million people over 60 years ago? Shouldn't you as parents know the truth about the chemical contents of this vaccine and be allowed to make an informed decision about whether it goes into your flesh and blood? Further, why aren't you directly compensated for your expense, time, and effort to heal your child as a result of a product formulation decision that was approved by both the CDC and FDA? The CDC and FDA know this stuff (I've already asked them), but they won't tell you or the American public. Does it make you just a little bit irritated to learn about this? If it does, then do something BIG about it! You need to know that unethical and illegal/criminal behavior has taken place in this industry and has been sanctioned by the CDC. In another country, we'd hunt for the masterminds and hold them accountable for crimes against humanity. We certainly wouldn't reward them with BIG retirement pensions, prestigious university appointments, or research budgets. We certainly wouldn't sock you with the financial burden to pay for their incompetence, willfull ignorance, or criminal behavior. I have a strong belief that your presence and your voices at the " Scene of the Crime " rally outside of CDC headquarters in Atlanta on June 29 will make a BIG difference, but only if you make it a BIG event. Speaking from first-hand experience, you cannot negotiate with the pharmaceutical companies. They enjoy deep pockets courtesy of 95% profit margins on these childhood vaccines and are protected by layers of unscrupulous lawyers and politicians interested only in money and power (or the presidency). Whenever the heat gets to be too much, they refer to their public relations playbooks and blame the CDC and FDA " who approved the vaccine " or they blame " disgruntled former employees " or " crazy anti-vaccine parents " or " the lack of science. " Watch the code words they repeatedly use whenever pressed on these issues. If you want the CDC to cough up the truth - NOW - about the toxic effect of thimerosal in vaccines, then you have to SHOW UP in Atlanta on June 29 and create a BIG media event. You have to " speak up " and without shame, " bluntly demand the truth. " You have got to make your presence so known to the CDC that it embarrasses them and causes the media to want to cover more of these type of events in an unflattering way (that sells papers and fills air time on cable television). Don't be afraid to NAME the specific people who are copping out on you or are selling their personal integrity to the highest bidder or covering their butts to avoid accountability. You have to put so much NEGATIVE HEAT on this industry and their bureaucratic protectors that change is forced on them from the outside. It's not going to happen any other way.... not if you want to see something happen in the lifetime of your son or daughter. Look at how long it's taken you to come this far. Stop begging, stop apologizing, and start taking your message to the STREETS! If you do, you'll get what you want sooner rather than later! Go to the " Scene of the Crime " Rally in Atlanta on June 29. Make a difference. Demand that the CDC tell you the truth NOW (and be LOUD when you do it)!

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Well, this may help you to understand. http://news./s/ap/20060530/ap_on_go_su_co/scotus_free_speech High court trims whistleblower rights By GINA HOLLAND, Associated Press WriterTue May 30, 5:54 PM ET The Supreme Court scaled back protections for government workers who blow the whistle on official misconduct Tuesday, a 5-4 decision in which new Justice Alito cast the deciding vote. In a victory for the Bush administration, justices said the 20 million public employees do not have free-speech protections for what they say as part of their jobs. Critics predicted the impact would be sweeping, from silencing police officers who fear retribution for reporting department corruption, to subduing federal employees who want to reveal problems with government hurricane preparedness or terrorist-related security. Supporters said that it will protect governments from lawsuits filed by disgruntled workers pretending to be legitimate whistleblowers. The ruling was perhaps the clearest sign yet of the Supreme Court's shift with the departure of moderate Justice Day O'Connor and the arrival of Alito. A year ago, O'Connor authored a 5-4 decision that encouraged whistleblowers to report sex discrimination in schools. The current case was argued in October but not resolved before her retirement in late January. A new argument session was held in March with Alito on the bench. He joined the court's other conservatives in Tuesday's decision, which split along traditional conservative-liberal lines. Exposing government misconduct is important, Justice M. Kennedy wrote for the majority. "We reject, however, the notion that the First Amendment shields from discipline the expressions employees make pursuant to their professional duties," Kennedy said. The ruling overturned an appeals court decision that said Los Angeles County prosecutor Ceballos was constitutionally protected when he wrote a memo questioning whether a county sheriff's deputy had lied in a search warrant affidavit. Ceballos had filed a lawsuit claiming he was demoted and denied a promotion for trying to expose the lie. Kennedy said if the superiors thought the memo was inflammatory, they had the authority to punish him. "Official communications have official consequences, creating a need for substantive consistency and clarity. Supervisors must ensure that their employees' official communications are accurate, demonstrate sound judgment, and promote the employer's mission," Kennedy wrote. Kohn, chairman of the National Whistleblower Center, said: "The ruling is a victory for every crooked politician in the United States." Justice H. Souter's lengthy dissent sounded like it might have been the majority opinion if O'Connor were still on the court. "Private and public interests in addressing official wrongdoing and threats to health and safety can outweigh the government's stake in the efficient implementation of policy," he wrote. Souter was joined by Justices s and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Justice Breyer also supported Ceballos, but on different grounds. The ruling upheld the position of the Bush administration, which had joined the district attorney's office in opposing absolute free-speech rights for whistleblowers. President Bush's two nominees, Alito and Chief Justice , signed onto Kennedy's opinion but did not write separately. "It's a very frightening signal of dark times ahead," said Tom Devine, legal director for the Government Accountability Project. Employment attorney Dan Westman said that Kennedy's ruling frees government managers to make necessary personnel actions, like negative performance reviews or demotions, without fear of frivolous lawsuits. Ceballos said in a telephone interview that "it puts your average government employee in one heck of a predicament ... I think government employees will be more inclined to keep quiet." Los Angeles County District Attorney Steve Cooley said in a statement that the ruling "allows public employers to conduct the people's business without undue disruption and without turning routine personnel decisions into federal cases." The court's decision immediately prompted calls for Congress to strengthen protections for workers. Kennedy said that government workers "retain the prospect of constitutional protection for their contributions to the civic discourse." They do not, Kennedy said, have "a right to perform their jobs however they see fit." The case is Garcetti v. Ceballos, 04-473.
